HØLTE
Hackney-made fronts for IKEA and Howdens carcasses. The ONE range publishes 10 named laminate colours, 5 wood veneers and 5 named handles. Alone among UK kitchen makers they publish measured carbon — 14 to 20 kgCO₂e per 600×800 door and 360 to 1040 per kitchen depending on front style — calculated with MÅLBAR, though not as an EPD.
Carbon and evidence
Product Evidence
Evidence currently held for the HØLTE product record.
Evidence Base
No declaration yetHØLTE has not published an EPD or a quantified carbon figure for this product, so nothing on this card is numerical. The guidance below is qualitative — drawn from the product record and curated category knowledge — for early design discussion, not for figures.
No EPD. None of the eight UK kitchen makers surveyed on 25 August 2026 holds one. Kitchen EPDs do exist in Denmark and Germany, but none is British.
Next step: request a current product EPD or manufacturer carbon declaration.
