The history
FSC-certified forestry
All our wood comes from selected forest plantations in Northern Europe. The wood is delivered from Sweden, Finland, Latvia and Lithuania.
There are several reasons for this. Our suppliers are FSC-certified and all our raw wood comes from controlled forestry in Northern Europe. This certification assures us that all our wood comes from sustainable forestry that we can be proud of.
We give back and recognise that we must do our part to take care of the climate. That's why we take our responsibility very seriously and only use wood from responsibly managed forests.
FSC certification ensures that we always give back. For every two trees we use in our production, three new trees are planted.
Slow-growing trees from Northern Europe
One of the reasons we work with a number of sawmills from Northern Europe is that trees grow slowly in the cold climates of Finland, Sweden, Lithuania and Latvia.
In the north, where the climate is challenging and cold, pine trees grow slower than forest areas with higher temperatures. The trees take longer to grow large as it is challenging to grow in the harsh, cold climate. As a result, pine is both harder and more robust than fast-growing pine from warmer forests.
Our wood is given the time it needs to achieve the right hardness without the addition of artificial agents. We don't rush anything and we only want to use the absolute best wood in our furniture production.
The wood arrives - in its pure and natural form - at our Danish factory in Højer in south-west Jutland. Sawmills in Northern Europe cut the wood into uniform planks, which undergo a long series of quality tests before the furniture is approved for delivery to children's rooms around the world.
Production with care
At LIFETIME Kidsrooms, only eco-friendly and water-based lacquer is used to treat all furniture. The treatment of the wood is very effective and the wood surface is sealed and covered according to best practice. The eco-friendly lacquer used for wood colour treatment is not harmful to breathe, which provides our employees with good working conditions at the furniture factory in Højer.
We use pine planks with visible knots for all our white-pigmented and grey-pigmented furniture. The characteristic knot structure is clearly visible in the pigmented wood, giving the furniture a natural look where you can clearly sense the structure of the wood.
In our furniture with a white surface, the wood texture is not visible. Here the surface is smooth and the white colour is penetrating. Our white finish furniture is produced in knot-free pine. All knots are removed from the pine planks to maintain a simple and classic white look.
From generation to generation
The starting point for LIFETIME Kidsrooms has always been to create unique furniture solutions for children. We've been doing this since 1972, and we will continue to do so in the future. At LIFETIME Kidsrooms, we produce furniture that provides a framework for the healthy development of children of all ages.
It is important to us that we help promote a focus on quality over quantity. Our desire is to create quality furniture that lasts a lifetime. It shouldn't be necessary to buy new furniture as soon as children's needs change.
Remodel, add and recombine your children's furniture when they need more storage, more room to play or more sleeping space. Our goal is - and always has been - to create great furniture solutions that will always have a place in the home.
Children's furniture should last a long time because - admittedly - it's inevitable that children grow and grow. That's why it's only natural for us that a piece of children's furniture should grow with the child.
Not only does our furniture have multiple functions and combination options, we also make sure that the quality is top-notch. That's why our furniture stays in the family for generations as more children come along and the family tree expands further.
Sustainable production
At our Danish factory, we only use electricity from sustainable energy sources. All electricity for the daily operation of our production facilities comes from wind turbine energy. Green energy and sustainable solutions have - since the very beginning - been part of our DNA at LIFETIME Kidsrooms.
The 13,000 m2 production area in Denmark is heated exclusively with residual material from production. Nothing goes to waste in the production facility. All surplus wood is used to heat the factory.
We contribute to the green transition and want to maintain focus on the necessity of using climate-friendly energy solutions in the production of furniture. We take responsibility and for decades we have focused on reducing our carbon footprint by optimising our production facilities towards sustainable production solutions.
Safety approved children's furniture
We've been manufacturing children's furniture since 1972. So we know a thing or two about making quality furniture for the nursery. It is very important to us that our furniture is approved according to all applicable regulations. That's why we work with the independent German company TÜV, which tests and certifies both facilities and items to minimise hazards and prevent damage. We endeavour to maintain a high level of quality, focusing on creating furniture that both parents and children feel safe and comfortable with.
LIFETIME Kidsrooms beds are manufactured in accordance with all applicable regulations and safety measures according to the requirements set out by TÜV SÜD Product Service GmbH.
LIFETIME Kidsrooms is TÜV certified as of 17/11 2020. The certificate ensures the maintenance of flawless and consistent furniture manufacturing. LIFETIME beds fulfil all health and safety requirements set by the German Product Safety Act.
Design with reason and heart
LIFETIME Kidsroom furniture is designed by our Dutch designer, Jaco Bosch. Since 2011, Jaco has been developing unique children's furniture for children all over the world. Jaco's inspiring and functional designs inspire and contribute to fond childhood memories all over the world. At the same time, the furniture contributes to happy parents around the world who love the high functionality of the children's room.
We make a point of combining functionality and creativity through good design. We have always done so, and our philosophy is that good design should speak to both the mind and the heart. It's a point of view we always return to when new furniture is on the drawing board.
It has always been important to us to create children's furniture that makes a difference for both children and parents. For decades, we've maintained our original philosophy with a focus on craftsmanship and innovative solutions.
Today, the furniture is still designed and produced based on the company's original values. In addition to creating the perfect environment for a child's healthy development, our furniture is designed to grow with the child. All furniture is therefore still designed based on the combination of creative and functional design.
