The Dutch, family-owned company Vogel's has been making innovative AV mounting solutions for the consumer and professional market for more than 50 years. What began as a personal quest for perfection has evolved into an international successful company that manufactures a highly distinctive range of mounts and placement solutions for audio/video & multimedia equipment. Their products combine versatile functionality and robust performance with sleek design. Their solutions are based on the talent and commitment of people who care passionately about the products they create and the customers who use them. Sustainability is embedded in the companies DNA. In order to make the environmental impact of their products measurable, Life Cycle Assessment (LCA's) have been made for the most popular products. In their latest introduced consumer products, the single used plastics are substantially reduced, and fully recyclable packaging are used. Next to that, Vogel's designs their products according to their Design Manifest. They find it of utmost importance to make sustainable and quality-oriented decisions from the start since 80% of a products impact originates in the design phase. Want to know more about Vogel's?
