Sustainability

A quarter century ago, DASX Australia was created through partnership, innovation, tenacity and a response to customer need. Together, these foundations formed and inform the culture of DASX today, and enable a responsive, creative organisation with the inspirational intention of making our human work life experience better.

We know optimal outcomes are achieved when individual & planet wellbeing are intrinsically linked.

Having applied our knowledge and wisdom from 25 years experience in high tech trading desks and control rooms to education desks, it is our mission of “Reimagineering Workspace”. We are driven to tackle the war on waste through our no redundancy, no landfill commitment, to support a Circular Economy.

We do this by:

  • offering flexible products that defies redundancy, through the ability to reconfigure interchangeable components, to meet changing organisational needs, and provide users optimal wellbeing and usability.
  • repurpose / reuse existing static desks into sit stand desks to provide users optimal wellbeing and usability, and retain enormous embodied energy.
  • create new products with a long life cycle. We believe it is ethical to manufacture products that are less disposable, more durable and reduce landfill. Our product range defines your future capacity to repurpose, renew and reconfigure your workspace, maximise your investment and significantly reduce commercial, operational, environmental risk and waste.
  • onsite repurposing and reconfigurations for minimal business disruption.

Responsibly Sourced Products

Since 1995, working in the Desk Technology space, we have developed relationships with World Leading manufacturers of Desk Technology components. Through this we bring you leading products, which align with Australian & International Quality and Ethical standards.

Sustainability & The Environment

WHY?: No redundancy, No landfill.

Our planet has an alarming landfill issue, which is not sustainable.

Sydney CBD building projects alone produce 55,000 tonne of landfill per year *

Only a change in human behaviour will affect these quantities.

Reimagineering Workspace means commitment to the environment is our mission.

Our continual improvement policy requires commitment, collaboration and consciousness.

We believe anything is possible.

Material Choice

MATERIAL CHOICE: No redundancy, No landfill.

Metal – 98% recyclable; 27% pre-consumer content
Sustainable Forestation – only chain of custody wood-based materials used
Plastics & Thermoplastics – material marking makes end of life recycling easier; strong commitment to the environment across supply chain
VOC – no VOC through supply chain
Waste Management and Energy Conservation
Our environmental mission influences all areas of our behaviour.
We take the utmost care of our environment while working at the same time to provide the ideal environment for our customers, employees and sub-contractors, now and in the future.

Lifecycle

LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT: No redundancy, No landfill.

Creating new products that have a very long life cycle is key.
We believe it is ethical to manufacture products that are less disposable, more durable and reduce landfill.
We are enthusiastically committed to repurposing existing desk furniture with new functionality, aesthetic and life cycle.

Design

IT’S ALL ABOUT DESIGN: No redundancy, No landfill.

Achieving maximum functionality and desired aesthetic, with minimum material, is only achievable through innovative design and effective engineering.
All ranges are designed and manufactured using precision components designed for disassembly.
Not only can these products be easily reconfigured during a long, useable life, at the end of the product’s life cycle it can be separated into different component materials, for optimal recycling.
Our commitment to innovative design & engineering also enables our ability to repurpose existing desk furniture with new functionality, aesthetic and life cycle.
