For Vitra, environmental, economic and social conduct begin with the individual. In order to develop, manufacture and market dependably long-lasting and environmentally sound products, Vitra complements this key factor of individual initiative with regular audits of the company’s standards by independent review entities.
对 Vitra 来说，环境、经济和社会行为始于个人。为了开发、制造和销售可靠、耐用和环保的产品，Vitra 通过独立审查实体对公司标准进行定期审核来补充个人主动性的这一关键因素。

Vitra has manufactured furniture designs by Charles & Ray Eames and George Nelson since 1957. Building on this foundation over the years, the company has developed a wide range of furnishings for the office, for the home and for public spaces in collaboration with progressive designers.
自 1957 年以来，Vitra 一直制造由 Charles & Ray Eames 和 George Nelson 设计的家具。多年来，在此基础上，公司与前卫设计师合作，为办公室、家庭和公共空间开发了各种家具。

Since 1997 Vitra has implemented a certified system for quality and environmental management according to the standards of DIN EN ISO 9001 and DIN EN ISO 14001.
自 1997 年以来，Vitra 根据 DIN EN ISO 9001 和 DIN EN ISO 14001 标准实施了经过认证的质量和环境管理体系。
Vitra is committed on all levels to reducing the use of
Vitra 在各个层面都致力于减少
energy, raw materials and other resources - thereby reducing the environmental impact caused by emissions, waste water and waste materials. The most important contribution of Vitra to environmental sustainability, however, is the high quality and enduring design of its longlasting products. The unusually long life cycle of Vitra products is ensured by aesthetics that do not follow temporary trends and fashions, and also by a careful selection of materials and the use of innovative technologies. The longevity of Vitra products is increased by the replaceability of wearing parts.
能源、原材料和其他资源 - 从而减少排放物、废水和废料对环境的影响。然而，Vitra 对环境可持续性最重要的贡献是其经久耐用的产品的高质量和持久设计。Vitra 产品异常长的生命周期是通过不遵循暂时趋势和时尚的美学以及精心选择的材料和创新技术的使用来确保的。易损件的可更换性延长了 Vitra 产品的使用寿命。

Trucks are to leave Vitra production sites preferably with a full load; the use of returnable packaging is being constantly increased. Preference is given to rail transport; overseas cargo is sent by ship and special transport is avoided. Vitra uses environmentally friendly materials for packaging and minimizes the volume of packaged products to make efficient use of the loading space in truck trailers and shipping containers.
卡车最好满载离开 Vitra 生产基地;可回收包装的使用正在不断增加。优先考虑铁路运输;海外货物通过船舶发送，避免特殊运输。Vitra 使用环保材料进行包装，并最大限度地减少包装产品的体积，以有效利用卡车拖车和集装箱的装载空间。

Steel is a stable compound of iron and carbon with various added alloys. As the technical properties such as strength and elasticity can be adjusted according to the steel grade, the material can be used flexibly in many different forms. At the end of the product life cycle, steel components can be melted down and completely recycled.
钢是铁和碳的稳定化合物，添加了各种合金。由于强度和弹性等技术特性可以根据钢种进行调整，因此该材料可以以多种不同的形式灵活使用。在产品生命周期结束时，钢制部件可以熔化并完全回收。

Polyurethane - Vitra uses this material primarily as permanently elastic soft foam in the production of covers. CFCs have not been used to expand polyurethane upholstery since as early as 1989. Polyurethane foams are mostly recycled thermally to generate energy or as a composite.
聚氨酯 - Vitra 主要将这种材料用作盖子生产中的永久弹性软泡沫。早在 1989 年，CFC 就没有用于聚氨酯内饰的膨胀。聚氨酯泡沫主要通过热回收来产生能量或作为复合材料。
single-variety separation and recycling, all plastic components that are large enough are labelled according to ISO 11469:2000.
单一品种的分离和回收，所有足够大的塑料成分都根据 ISO 11469：2000 进行标记。

Wood and wood products: Wood is a renewable, natural raw material. Wood products like chipboard and MDF have the advantage that they can be processed more easily and flexibly than wood and do not deform at different moisture levels like solid wood. In the production of wood products we partly also use surplus wood from the wood industry and thus help preserve valuable resources. All the wood products used by Vitra satisfy the emission category El and therefore emit less than 0.1 ppm formaldehyde.
木材和木制品： 木材是一种可再生的天然原材料。刨花板和 MDF 等木制品的优点是它们比木材更容易、更灵活地加工，并且不会像实木那样在不同水分水平下变形。在木制品生产中，我们还部分使用木材工业的剩余木材，从而有助于保护宝贵的资源。Vitra 使用的所有木制品都满足排放类别 El 的要求，因此甲醛排放量低于 0.1 ppm。

Once a product reaches the end of its life cycle, it must be disposed of.
一旦产品达到其生命周期的终点，就必须将其丢弃。

La Chaise is 4 % recyclable when fully separated. Vitra understands the term recyclability to signify only melting down and reuse of raw materials. Polyurethane and wood products, for example, cannot be melted down.
La Chaise 在完全分类后是 4% 的可回收物。Vitra 将可回收性一词理解为仅表示原材料的熔化和再利用。例如，聚氨酯和木制品不能熔化。

Cover fabrics will be separated into synthetic materials and natural fibres, depending on the material.
根据材料的不同，覆盖织物将分为合成材料和天然纤维。

However, these materials can be used thermally to generate energy or can be crushed and recycled as materials.
然而，这些材料可以通过热方式用于产生能量，也可以作为材料被粉碎和回收。

La Chaise contains 3 % recycled material. Using recycled materials conserves valuable resources. With their proportion of recycled material, among other things, Vitra products can contribute to a good rating in certification programs for sustainable buildings (for example LEED). We will be happy to assist you should you require more information on this subject.
La Chaise 含有 3% 的回收材料。使用回收材料可以节省宝贵的资源。除其他外，Vitra 产品含有可回收材料，有助于在可持续建筑认证计划（例如 LEED）中获得良好的评价。如果您需要有关此主题的更多信息，我们将很乐意为您提供帮助。
