Bergmeyer believes that design professionals
can more e昀昀ectively address the global climate
crisis if we leverage the power of our professional
networks. In that light, we are excited to
have introduced Bergmeyer+, a new retailerfocused sustainability consultancy powered in
partnership by Bergmeyer and the renowned
team of strategical and technical experts in
sustainable material innovation at Parallel.
Bergmeyer+ begins at the most fundamental
level—helping retailers align their overarching
purpose and mission with their store design
sustainability goals.
Our vision for Bergmeyer+ is clear: to empower retailers
to make a positive di昀昀erence in the world through
sustainable practices. Bergmeyer is excited to partner
with sustainability visionary Annie Bevan and the team of
strategic and technical experts in material sustainability
at Parallel, to reimagine the future of retail, one where
sustainability is not just a buzzword but a transformative
force for good.
Key Areas of Focus: The Three Big C’s
Bergmeyer+ benchmarks and evaluates the three big
“C’s” - carbon, chemistry (toxicity), and circularity (waste)
of current Store Fixture programs for retail brands based
on information provided by the client, the client’s 昀椀xture
vendors, all the way down to the vendors’ raw materials
suppliers, providing retailers with a comprehensive
sustainability rubric with recommendations and a
roadmap for optimizing climate-positive change that
aligns with their corporate sustainability and ESG goals.
