Through their different brands, Nobia Group has positioned itself in three major market segments: retail, trade and project. In addition to Scandinavia, Nobia also has a strong presence in the UK, Austria and the Netherlands.

Sustainability 

The twelve initial models that Nobia has selected for this collaboration (New York-New York Silk, Himalaya Crystal Ultrasoft, Pulpis Silk, Calacatta Silk, Calatorao Silk, Blanco Carrara Silk, Basalt Grey Silk, Basalt Black Silk, Nero Marquina Silk, Retrostone Silk) are all inspired by natural materials like marble and stone. The models are made to be used in kitchens in a unique and elegant way, all while maintaining impeccable design and function.

This selection also includes models, such as Sofia Cuprum and Metropolitan, which feature the brand-new 98R formula, made from up to 90% recycled raw materials. Additionally, the manufacturing process is very efficient and done entirely in a carbon-neutral environment; Neolith was the first company in the industry to achieve carbon neutrality in 2019. This achievement is a standout factor for a group like Nobia, which focuses on using sustainable materials in a circular economy model to inspire customers to live in a way that helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

"Our ongoing efforts to meet our sustainability goals in collaboration with Neolith is an important building block.

The environmental product declaration, which certifies the entire life cycle of Neolith's sintered stone, reinforces our commitment to offering our customers sustainable solutions. 

It also strengthens Nobia in our mission to design kitchens with a high level of innovation and differentiation", says Linda Gunnarsson, Product Manager at Nobia.
