D Line Launches Re-Handle®, Focusing on Sustainability
Danish design brand D Line recently introduced a new refurbishing home hardware initiative called Re-handle® and the venture promises to enhance the firm's commitment to sustainability and waste reduction. Marketed as "the industry's first circular system that will prolong the life of products up to 100 years," the refurbishing home hardware initiative seeks the brand accepting sold products—from door handles and bathroom fixtures to other home hardware—for refurbishment. D Line promises to "fix, replace, and brush" well-used products making them good as new. The brand can re-handle the same product up to four times. D Line notes that "with each Re-handle the 20-year product warranty period is renewed." The firm estimates that with each Re-handle®, up to 90% of CO2 emissions can be stopped from entering the environment.
