These are chosen for their high quality so that they last as long as possible. For this reason, 90% of <a href=\"https:\/\/corporate.idkids.com\/marque\/okaidi\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Oka\u00efdi <\/a> store furnishings are made from steel, which is 100% recyclable without altering its quality. This means it can be recycled indefinitely with no change to its original properties.<\/p>\n<p>The paint used is also environmentally-friendly.<\/p>\n<p>When a store is opened or revamped, as much material as possible is recovered (e.g. fa\u00e7ades, metal shutters, floor coverings, old furniture) and reused.<\/p>\n<p>Whichever country the store is based in, it adheres to the same technical, environmental and financial constraints.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Limiting the transportation of store fittings<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>To limit the transportation of store fittings as far as possible, stores can refer to a map of local suppliers. There are designated furniture and lighting suppliers for each major geographical area (e.g. Asia and Eastern Europe).<\/p>\n<p>To further reduce energy consumption related to transport, Oka\u00efdi and \u00cfDKIDS have made a commitment to have their store fittings and building work carried out by businesses located close to the store.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Optimized lighting<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For ten years measures have been in place to optimize store lighting to save energy. This is called \u201crelamping\u201d. Incandescent light bulbs have gradually been replaced by more high-performance, longer-lasting lamps such as energy-saving lights and LEDs. All of the illuminated signs and logos we have had since 2015 are 100% LED.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Air conditioning<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Wherever technically possible, water-based air conditioning systems are replaced with air-based ones. Air-based systems consume less water and electricity. <strong>\u00cfDKIDS community brands have made reducing their environmental impact one of their key objectives.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We Act For Kids is a commitment by \u00cfDKIDS to lessen its environmental impact on an ongoing basis.
