Wayfair Makes it Simple to "Shop Sustainably"

At Wayfair, we have always focused on creating an exceptional shopping experience for our customers, which means empowering them to easily find just the products that meet their needs. Oftentimes, those needs include products that are more sustainable. That’s why, as part of our ongoing commitment to reduce the impacts of our products and supply chain, we’re offering a new way for everyone to find and shop for more sustainable home products.

It all starts with a search

Wayfair’s powerful search engine gets even better with our “Shop Sustainably” feature, allowing customers to shine a spotlight on the over 500,000 sustainable products offered on our platform. From furniture to decor, each of these products meets specific environmental, health, indoor air quality, or community-related certifications or standards, meaning you can shop comfortably — and consciously — for your home.

“As we continue to focus on creating the best possible shopping experience for home, we are pleased to showcase our thousands of supplier partners that have committed to meeting high global sustainability standards for manufacturing and design,” said Derek Oliver, Head of Government Affairs and Corporate Responsibility at Wayfair. “With our ‘Shop Sustainably’ search functionality, we are providing access to the broadest selection of sustainable home products and we look forward to expanding this offering to help our customers quickly and easily find the products that meet their needs — and match their values.”

Finding sustainable products made simple


With this search functionality, every Wayfair shopper can now filter search results across 10 sustainability-specific categories. Each product included in these categories meets one or more of over 60 globally-recognized sustainability certifications or standards.

Maybe you know what’s important to you when shopping sustainably, but aren’t sure which certifications or standards match your values. To help, we’ve put together this simple guide that provides an overview of all 10 categories.

  • ENERGY STAR Certified
  • Environmentally Preferred
  • GREENGUARD Certified
  • Hypoallergenic
  • Local Community Empowerment
  • Made Clean
  • Organic
