I suggest you go to an IKEA, the one I have been to is in SE Mass. Virtually every non-food good in the store was made in China and I checked many labels throughout the store.
Are our products made in China?
Today, approximately 17% of our range is produced in China and the Republic of China (Taiwan - BR). IKEA is in control of the product development process and through our Trading areas we work closely together with our suppliers in place, which is an advantage when it comes to securing product quality.
A product risk assessment is made during the development of the product. Tests and follow-ups are done both before we start the production and then on continues basis. We test our products according to our own requirements and applicable international standards/legislation at accredited internal and external test laboratories.
IKEA products shall always be safe to use. IKEA believe it’s possible to produce safe high quality products to low prices in China.
Certainly not "Virtually every..." but I am surprised that Chinese and Taiwanese (note the lack of distinction) make up 17%.
Again, I think you aren't giving IKEA a fair shake. It is a globally sourced company. That's just what it is!
