In recent years, sustainability has evolved from a design trend to a fundamental requirement in architecture and interior design. As environmental concerns become increasingly central to our global discourse, the demand for furniture and materials that align with sustainable values has grown significantly.
Clients across various sectors, including hospitality, healthcare, and commercial industries are seeking solutions that combine long-term durability, low environmental impact, and strong visual identity. In this evolving landscape, brands that embed sustainability into every stage of their production are not just preferred, they are essential.
Slide Design – Pioneering Sustainable Furniture from Italy
Who is Slide? Slide is a leading Italian furniture brand with over 20 years of design and manufacturing experience, known globally for its bold, sculptural aesthetic and dedication to innovation. Since its founding, Slide has continually pushed the boundaries of form and function, combining Italian craftsmanship with creative, contemporary design.
A Commitment to Sustainability - At the heart of Slide’s philosophy is a deep commitment to environmental responsibility. All products are made using 100% recycled polyethylene, produced entirely in Italy through a fully circular production process. This approach allows Slide not only to reduce waste but to create design-led pieces that support a greener future without compromising durability or style.

Circular by Design - Slide has invested heavily in building a closed-loop production model, where even the smallest manufacturing waste is reused. This sustainable model is at the core of collections like Reborn, a collaboration with EcoBirdy, which represents the next evolution of Slide’s commitment to circularity and low-impact design.
Who Is It For? Slide's collections are ideal for hospitality, commercial, healthcare, and outdoor environments. With short production lead times (typically 3–4 weeks) and a wide range of colours, finishes, and applications, Slide is the perfect solution for architects, designers, and procurement teams seeking stylish, durable, and sustainable furniture.

Slide’s collections are not only sustainably produced, but also highly practical and built to perform in real-world environments. Each piece is engineered for long-term durability and ease of maintenance, making them ideal for public spaces, rooftops, offices, lobbies, outdoor lounges, and more. With a wide range of colours and modular options, Slide balances form, function, and flexibility for the demands of modern spaces.
With a typical production lead time of just 4-5 weeks, Slide offers an ideal solution for architects and specifiers who need responsibly made, high-performance furniture without compromising on design.
