Sustainability
Arko takes pride in embodying a harmonious blend of environmental consciousness and community engagement. Our products are thoughtfully designed in our West Footscray studio and meticulously crafted by local tradespeople, all within a 60km radius of our Melbourne headquarters. This approach not only bolsters our local economy but also significantly curtails the ecological footprint associated with the transportation of manufactured goods.
Central to our ethos is the utilization of locally sourced materials, expertly fabricated by skilled tradespeople within our community. This dual commitment not only champions the talents of local tradespeople but also fosters a more sustainable production process, as we consciously select resources with minimal travel distance.
Furthermore, our products are forged from recyclable steel, epitomizing our commitment to environmental well-being. This choice ensures both durability and elegance, while underscoring our dedication to a circular economy where responsible material choices pave the way for a greener future.
