About

The raw materials for the components of this chair come from waste streams. The seat and back are made from 100% recycled PET bottles, and the frame is made from 100% upcycled polyamide (nylon). The latter is unique. A new, strong and 100% pure polyamide has been made from old residual plastics. Except for the cross base and gas spring, the chair is made entirely from recycled materials.
The parts are easy to disassemble, repair and recycle into new 100% recycled PET and PA pellets. The chairs are returned after their useful life, after which the parts are reused. The chair has a residual value guarantee after its 1st or 2nd lifetime. This means that no new raw materials are needed. Partly because of this, this chair has a very low footprint.
