Modular Responsibility: How Profim is Rethinking Office Furniture
For over three decades, Profim has quietly carved out a reputation for creating high-quality, thoughtfully designed office seating. But with its latest initiative, the Modular Responsibility campaign, the company is proving that good design can also be sustainable, adaptable, and deeply conscious of its environmental footprint.
Craftsmanship Meets Sustainability
Founded in 1991 in Turek, Poland, Profim began as a small-scale workshop grounded in precision, functionality, and attention to detail. Over time, the company expanded into a full suite of office furniture, maintaining its commitment to usability, durability, and affordability.
With the launch of Modular Responsibility, Profim is taking these values a step further. The company’s flagship modular collection, Revo, is designed around principles of sustainability and circularity. Unlike traditional plywood constructions, Revo components are made from REPP (recycled expanded polypropylene) — a material that reduces product weight by up to 40% and can be endlessly remolded.
The design also emphasizes ease of disassembly. Upholstery is secured with a tethered drawstring instead of glue or staples, allowing each component to be separated and recycled at the end of its life cycle.
Versatility at the Core
Revo is more than a sustainable collection; it’s designed to adapt to the dynamic needs of modern workspaces. Its modular system offers nearly 100 configuration options, allowing the same set of components to serve as solo workstations, collaborative breakout areas, or formal meeting arrangements.
Recent innovations, such as mirrored modules, enhance symmetry and flexibility, enabling designers to create balanced “islands,” align seating with traffic flow, and adjust layouts to complex floor plans. The result is a furniture collection that feels intuitive, contemporary, and responsive — evolving seamlessly alongside modern offices, co-working spaces, and public interiors.
Responsibility Beyond Design
Profim’s commitment extends beyond the furniture itself. Manufacturing remains centralized in Poland, emphasizing resource efficiency, minimal waste, and reduced carbon impact. The use of lighter materials reduces transportation emissions, and fewer molds during production lower energy consumption.
At its core, Profim emphasizes human-centered design that is both user- and environment-friendly. Sustainability is not just a marketing claim; it is a guiding principle shaping every stage of production, use, and post-use recycling.
Shaping the Future of Workspaces
In a rapidly changing world of hybrid offices and fluid layouts, furniture that adapts matters. Revo offers this adaptability while remaining stylish, functional, and environmentally responsible.
Through Modular Responsibility, Profim demonstrates that office furniture can be durable, beautiful, functional, and renewable. The company is not just creating seating solutions; it is offering a vision of responsible, modern workspaces for a sustainable future.
