A more sustainable life is about your personal well-being as much as it is about protecting the environment. Here we have some simple and affordable ideas that can make a difference in your everyday life. 

Making small changes to the way you sit and move during the day can keep you healthier in the future. 

Adults should aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate physical activity each week. Even if you spend most days at a desk, some ergonomic products for the home or office can help.    

The LIDKULLEN active sit/stand support keeps your body in motion while you work. This strengthens muscles and the spine— and gives you a naturally healthy posture. So, you can keep moving, even when you can’t go anywhere.

Encourage a good night’s sleep with comfy ergonomic pillows and a blackout curtain. 

Give kids time to play—it helps develop motor skills and coordination, and makes the whole family happy, too.

When developing children’s products, we consider both intended and unintended use to minimise safety risks. 

At IKEA, we’ve worked to ensure our products are safe for the planet and our customers, especially the little ones. We do this in every step from the design to the chemicals and substances invisible to the eye.    

We’re making your home and the planet healthier and safer by banning carcinogenic colourants and phasing out potentially harmful chemicals. And you can feel safe knowing there is no BPA added in any of our children’s and food contact products.
