This national recognition underscores MillerKnoll’s dedication to reducing its carbon footprint and achieving net-zero emissions by 2050. 

“Design isn’t just what we make — it’s how we make it,” said Gabe Wing, Vice President of Sustainability at MillerKnoll. “From the materials we choose to the energy we use, every decision is an opportunity to live our values. Recognition like this tells us we’re heading in the right direction.”
