ESG Report

LYFA Mission Statement

At LYFA, we believe that timeless design and long-lasting quality are inherently sustainable. As a Danish lighting brand with roots dating back to 1903, we are committed to creating lighting that not only stands the test of time aesthetically and functionally, but also supports a more responsible future.

Our approach to sustainability is guided by the principles of longevity, circularity, and transparency. We work consciously with materials such as recycled aluminium, focus on local production partners where possible, and continue to refine our packaging and logistics to reduce environmental impact. For us, ESG is not just a framework, it’s a way to stay accountable, make better decisions, and create value that extends beyond the product itself. It gives us direction as we build a more resilient and ethical business,
and it strengthens the trust we aim to earn with our customers, partners, and employees.

We are at the beginning of a long-term journey. This report is a step toward making our efforts measurable,
visible, and actionable.

Environmental (E)

At LYFA, we are committed to integrating environmental responsibility into every part of our business from energy use and materials to packaging and future supply chain improvements.

Energy & Emissions

In 2024, all company electricity consumption was sourced from wind power, supporting Denmark’s transition toward renewable energy. As a result, our total CO₂e emissions for Scope 1 and Scope 2 amounted to just 0.31 tons CO₂e.

Water & Waste

Our office is part of a shared workspace, which makes precise tracking of water and heating usage difficult. Estimated water consumption based on industry benchmarks was 11.6 m³ in 2024. LYFA only generates standard office waste and does not handle hazardous materials. As waste volumes are currently not measured, we aim to explore more structured tracking and recycling options in future reporting.

Packaging & Transport

Diffused lighting is non-directional; a soft, scattered light that is not directed at particular objects or surfaces. The light passes through a translucent surface, creating a softer appearance that serves well as overall room illumination or to create an ambient setting. Choosing the correct light source is essential to avoid unwanted patterns on the illuminated surfaces.

Social (S)

At LYFA, we believe that great design is rooted in great people. As a small and collaborative team, we value well-being, openness, and a strong workplace culture.

We foster an inclusive and respectful work environment with room for flexibility, creativity, and personal growth. Our team culture is supported by a high degree of trust, low absenteeism, and a safe working environment.

We are committed to diversity and equal opportunities and continuously strive to ensure fair treatment and balanced representation across the organisation. While we are still a small company, we aim to build a team that reflects a variety of backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives.

We also place high value on collaboration with our external designers, production partners, and suppliers. Our partnerships are based on mutual respect, shared design values, and long-term trust.

Governance (G)

LYFA is a privately owned Danish company with a flat and agile leadership structure. We value transparency, responsibility, and integrity in how we operate—both internally and in our partnerships.

Our governance approach is guided by a clear set of ethical standards and a commitment to responsible business conduct. We act in accordance with Danish legislation and have policies in place to support fair competition, anti-corruption, and respectful collaboration.

Although we are a small team, we take data protection seriously. Our systems and workflows comply with GDPR requirements, and we continuously assess how we handle and store sensitive information.

As we grow, we remain focused on building strong internal structures that support accountability, ethical decision-making, and trust across all areas of the business.

Our Commitment

As part of our ESG efforts, LYFA aligns with selected United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that reflect our values and operational focus. While we are a small organisation, we believe our design choices, materials, and partnerships can contribute meaningfully to global progress.
