30 May 2024 IKEA Supply AGIKEA Supply AG: furniture seized – timber origin not sufficiently checked Other
In April 2024, the Office for Product Safety and Standards (OPSS) seized furniture from the Vilto, Molger, Bekväm, Norbo and other ranges because IKEA Supply AG, as operator, could not demonstrate due diligence that sufficiently mitigated the risk of illegal timber. Following a second notice dated 30 May 2024, the company had to donate the goods to a named charity.
Even large retailers with their own sustainability programmes must be able to prove due diligence for each product and consignment – otherwise the goods may be seized.
