Through the service, products that are in excellent condition with "no scratches", can be bought back for 50% of the original price. Products that have minor scratches will be bought back for 40% of the original cost, while furniture that is well used with several scratches can be resold for 30% of their value.
Ikea said that the service is one of several initiatives that would "help make sustainable living more accessible and affordable", and to encourage customers to "rethink their consumption habits and take positive action to help our planet".
Speaking on the initiative, Peter Jelkeby, the chief sustainability officer for Ikea UK and Ireland said: “Households are connected to around 60% of global greenhouse gas emissions, consuming around a third of the energy and 10% of the water used globally. Therefore, small actions taken within them can make a significant difference, and why IKEA is so committed to making sustainable living more affordable, attractive and accessible. As one of the biggest brands in the world, we recognise our unique opportunity to help lead that change."
