The Fiber Chair family is made from 100 % recycled plastic reinforced with strength-improving additives and mixed with up to 25% FSC™- certified (FSC-C028824) wood fibers. By substituting virgin plastic in the production of its shell, we minimize the use of new material, instead of reusing existing material a second time.
The Fiber Chair Family is an essential part of our product portfolio. Transforming our production of it is, therefore, an ambitious starting point in becoming more circular in our consumption of raw material. In fact, by switching to recycled plastic we expect to save more than more than 80 tons of virgin plastic in 2023.
The shell of Fiber Chairs and Stools is made of plastic that is climate compensated. The production process of the plastic material uses 100% renewable energy, optimized and highly efficient. There is no use of fossil fuel for heating and the facility uses carbon neutral transport when possible.
The remaining carbon emissions are offset by supporting certified climate projects through Verra or Gold Standard.
The Fiber Series without upholstery is EU Ecolabel Certified. By carrying the EU Ecolabel Certification, the product is guaranteed to have a reduced environmental impact throughout the total lifecycle of the product from raw material to disposal. Read more here.
Please note that all Fiber Chair family variants with recycled plastic will be available in North America throughout 2024.
