Delhi : AFC Furniture Solutions has earned recognition from the GRIHA Council, for its workstation and chair series, now featured in the GRIHA (Green Rating for Integrated Habitat Assessment) Product Catalogue under the Innovation typology. The inclusion gives architects, designers, and project teams a clearly identified range of AFC furniture to consider while specifying products for GRIHA and SVAGRIHA (Small Versatile Affordable GRIHA) registered projects.
For commercial and institutional projects pursuing green building ratings, furniture is increasingly becoming part of a larger conversation around material choices, resource efficiency, and the environmental footprint of a building. AFC’s inclusion in the GRIHA Product Catalogue gives project teams a more straightforward way to bring these considerations into the furniture specification process, with individual series identified within the recognised framework.
“The value of this recognition is in making sustainability credentials more practical for project teams. They can now identify AFC workstation and chair series within the GRIHA Product Catalogue, instead of evaluating sustainability claims at a broad portfolio level. It also gives us a clear benchmark for how we develop and document our products going forward,” said Maanoj Tomar, Founder, AFC Furniture Solutions.
The GRIHA listing builds on AFC’s wider focus on responsible manufacturing and product development. The company’s existing credentials include BIFMA Level® 3, GreenPro, SCS Indoor Advantage Gold, IGBC, FSC, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, 45001 and ISO 50001 certifications, BIS (IS 17631, 17632, 17633 and 17634), and SBTi. AFC also publishes Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) and annual GHG inventories, reflecting its approach to measuring and documenting the environmental performance of its operations and products.
With this latest inclusion, AFC’s furniture portfolio has a clearer place in India’s green building ecosystem, giving project teams another reference point when choosing furniture for spaces where sustainability is considered alongside design, functionality, and performance.
