What Makes Southeast Asia a Top Source for Sustainable Home Decor Materials?

July 11, 2025 • Anita Hummel • Season 5 • Episode 22

In a world where climate change, deforestation, and environmental degradation are daily headlines, design has a new mandate: it must be beautiful, functional, and sustainable. At Mondoro, we believe the future of home decor lies at the intersection of thoughtful design and ethical sourcing.

Our commitment begins in Southeast Asia, where we collaborate with artisans and producers to source eco-friendly materials that benefit both the planet and local communities. Click here to read more about Sourcing Sustainable Materials in Southeast Asia for Home Decor and listen to the #GlobalTradeGal podcast to hear how materials like bamboo, water hyacinth, and recycled metals are shaping sustainable design.
