Wood is always wood but the quality of its origin and end-products is the main matter. In Finland is this living tradition.
The Nordic Hysteria is the Finnish ecological design company that takes manufacture production back to urban environment. Its facilities are to be searched and found in the centre neighborhood of the city. For Its designers and for everyone who works at the Nordic Hysteria are offered the best “opened views” by designing and manufacturing of the products.
Ecological production
Manufacturing in an urban environment demands zero landfill waste and further more, it minimises waste all together. The commuting costs and the ecological impact are reduced to the mostly necessary.
Revers ergonomics – Adapting the machines to people
The Nordic Hysteria adapts the machines to people and not vice-versa. By using specifically created tools and machines the company provides less noise, needs less production space, and it reduces significant the many pollution’s sources.
Sustainably designing
The well known designer Tepio Antilla based in Lahti Finland is particularly interested in wood and working it by modern shapes, with a special dedication to the Nordic traditions. Tepio Antilla designs furniture of functional features for home and public environment.
Production committed to “cradle to cradle”
Nordic Hysteria fousses on smallest possible ecological footprint, and “a fresh three-dimensional form language” in design and wood processing. The company minimises the use of material by using high-yielding birch veneer from sustainable Finish wood sources.
The manufacturing process produces no landfill waste, uses consistently much less energy as conventional processes, regularly required by traditional form pressing.
The company creates and manufactures clean and simply shaped lighting and accessories from sustainable materials, and developed technologies that represents a modern take on design and use of raw materials.
The lifecycle of company’s products is a “cradle to cradle” sustainable journey. They can be easily disassembled, and re-used or recycled back to energy.
The products offered by Nordic Hysteria are contract quality, and used in hotels and restaurants, as well as in homes.
Conclusion: The Nordic Hysteria ethical values are living in its products: sustainable design, ecological urban manufacture, functional ergonomics for employees, and fully recycling processing.
