Sustainability

Driving Positive Change

Why is sustainability important to SETAG?

The yachting industry is under increasing pressure to reduce its environmental impact and it is imperative that we work together to implement sustainable solutions.

We’re committed to reducing our environmental impact to support the protection of ecosystems and biodiversity on our planet. We’re generating positive change by building responsible and sustainable methods into every stage of our refits – and of course, the simple act of refitting an existing yacht is the ultimate in upcycling.

With SETAG, there’s no need to compromise the luxury finish of your yacht to protect our planet.

Sustainable Design

Finding natural alternatives that don’t compromise on comfort or style.

Reducing toxins without downgrading on comfort is key for Sarah Luck, our Design Director, who is an expert in sustainable interior design solutions. 

‘I’m a big believer in zero or minimal toxins in an environment. The foam in chairs, sofas and cushions breaks down as it ages and deteriorates, releasing dust foam particles into the air. These particles are toxic and we’re breathing them in, so that’s a problem we need to eliminate.’’

Working Together

We’re working with Enkev, who have a vast catalogue of natural, recyclable fibres, to recreate similar or higher comfort levels to conventional foam methods. Materials such as Cocolok, a coconut fibre wrapped in a natural latex create a comfortable, bouncy feel that offers a luxurious alternative to foam.

Our mattresses are made from British wool, which uses less energy to produce than artificial fibre mattresses. They are also recyclable at end of life and the keratin in the fibres makes them naturally fire retardant.

These natural alternatives don’t compromise on luxury and our expert team will tailor them to your preference, providing a custom product that is completely natural and minimises the contamination of our environment.

Creating Sustainable Supply Chains

Working with suppliers who champion ethical and eco-friendly values enables us to share ideas, build initiatives and reimagine concepts for the future.

By challenging how parts are manufactured, the materials we use, the labour we employ and the way we transport goods, we are leading the way to building a sustainable supply chain.

 

SETTING TOMORROW'S STANDARD

“It is our responsibility to act now to provide a greener future for our children.  SETAG and its supply chain will ensure they play their part in this global challenge.” – Laura Prynn, Supply Chain Director.

Looking Towards a Greener Future

Yachting life is built around enjoying the beauty of nature, making it vital to protect our environment and teach future generations to do the same.

SETAG takes upcycling to a whole new level by giving second-hand yachts a brand new lease of life, providing an economic alternative to buying new, without compromising on design or luxury.
