Healthy & Sustainable Living

The way we live at home has a big impact on the planet and our health. Many people want to make healthier and more sustainable choices – but not at the expense of price, quality or convenience. With our size and reach, we have a big opportunity to make healthier and more sustainable living affordable and accessible to people around the world.

Our ambition

By promoting more sustainable home furnishing and food products, services to help prolong the lives of products, services, life-at-home knowledge, and inspiration, we can make healthier and more sustainable living possible for the many people. To achieve this, we actively listen to people in each of our markets and work together with others to create meaningful connections and experiences. 

For 2030 our ambition is to inspire and enable people to move towards healthy and sustainable lifestyles, by making healthy and sustainable living a desirable choice that is affordable, attractive and accessible for as many people as possible.

Our actions

With the IKEA Energy Services , we’re making it easier and more affordable for our customers to use and produce renewable energy, through home solar and electricity subscription services from renewable sources, offered and delivered by local partners in different countries. This is an important contribution towards supporting the transition to a net zero society. Read more about our energy efforts and our performance in FY24.

In FY24, we also continued to develop our in-store Sustainable Living Shops. These are spaces within our stores and online designed to build awareness about sustainable living practices at home. We use them to highlight products and actions that can help customers to: use less energy, use less water, create less waste, and prolong product life. Read more about our products and services for circular living in FY24, and how we are supporting customers to actively participate in circular actions.

Every year, IKEA is serving millions of food customers around the world. By including more plant-based alternatives on our menus, we can enable and inspire more people to try plant-based eating. Our goal for 2025 is that 50% of our IKEA restaurant meals offered will be plant-based. One of the ways we can achieve our vision is to offer affordable and accessible plant-based food with a lower climate impact. We offer them at the same or lower price than meat-based alternatives. Even in cases where raw materials are higher than the meat-based product. Read more about how we make our plant-based food more accessible and affordable.
