14 Sustainable & Organic Dining Table From Eco-Friendly Brands

April 8, 2023Home Goods

I think we can all wholeheartedly agree that organic dining tables have the ability to become the showstopping centerpieces of our entire eco-friendly dining room area. However, curating your non-toxic living space for new multi-functioning success is not an easy feat. In fact, choosing the best sustainable dining tables may very well be as complex as picking out an organic sofa, or a natural bed! That’s the most tricky part about centerpieces. They have to be functional and super high-quality all while fitting your own space’s needs and budget.

Then, there’s the choice of materials. It’s best to opt for organic wood dining table options that are completely free of health-threatening chemicals that are notorious for off-gassing. Unfortunately, many of these VOCs have been listed as known carcinogens, irritants, and toxicants that can contribute to asthma and other breathing conditions. Heck, they are even linked to hormone disruption. That’s certainly not the case for eco-friendly dining tables.

Below is our curated list of sustainable and organic dining tables for an easy-yet-elevated decor that’s safe and ultra-stylish. From organic modern dining tables to space-saving, classic oval wood dining tables, there’s something for everyone.
