Secrid Impact Report 2023 - Driving the Industrial Evolution

We are proud to present our latest?Impact Report, covering the 2023 fiscal year. It reflects our ongoing commitment to transforming the industry through sustainable innovation and responsible design.

When we speak about our mission to drive the?Industrial Evolution, we acknowledge the lessons of the past, address the challenges of the present, and shape our future.

For most of human history, producing and distributing goods was a slow and labour-intensive process. The?Industrial Revolution?accelerated production, making it cheaper and more efficient, but it also paved the way for today’s throwaway culture, which has led to environmental degradation and social inequality.

Our Mission - Driving the Industrial Evolution

At Secrid, we believe that while industry cannot be completely halted, it can be transformed. Through thoughtful design, sustainable practices, and conscious production, we aim to create a future where innovation leads to products that are durable, benefit the environment, and positively impact everyone in our supply chain.

"By using design as a force for good, the focus can be shifted towards creating products that are designed to improve with each generation."

Our approach leverages design as a force for good, focusing on creating products that improve generation after generation. At the?Secrid Material Lab, we are committed to researching and discovering eco-friendly materials that align with a circular economy, minimise carbon emissions, and ensure long-lasting durability. In 2023, innovations like recycled aluminium and plant-based leather alternatives led to a 46% reduction in carbon emissions, showcasing our commitment to sustainability.

"This is more than just a business strategy—it’s a movement towards industrial evolution, where people and the planet come first."

Our impact extends beyond environmental initiatives. We are also investing in people by creating job opportunities in?Sheltered Workshops?and supporting the next generation of designers through the?Secrid Impact Fund.

In the coming weeks, we will delve into key insights from the report, our initiatives and explore the three pillars of our vision: People, Planet, Product.
