(LCA, LastRound)
LastObject was born from a simple question: why does something you use for ten seconds need to last forever in a landfill? Every product is engineered to replace hundreds or thousands of single-use equivalents, verified by independent life cycle assessments across 22 environmental impact categories. The company is B Corp certified and headquartered in Copenhagen, Denmark.
