Globally, more than 2 billion cups of coffee are sold everyday, generating some 40,000 tonnes of coffee grounds.

Either buried or discharged into waterways, spent coffee grounds contribute to our food waste and pollution issues. While it is an organic waste that can decompose naturally, coffee grounds that end up in landfills may be subjected to anaerobic decomposition that gives off large amounts of methane.

Thanks to its thermal insulation, bacteria resistance and deodorising features, coffee grounds can be recycled with the potential to become a new low-carbon material and an alternative material to wood for construction and home decoration sectors.

Step into a more sustainable future with our collection of eco-friendly chairs made by combining spent coffee grounds (41%) and recycled plastic pellets (42%) – these timeless designs are durable, toxic-free and easy-to-clean!

“We have to reduce plastic from entering the ocean. Once it’s in the ocean, pretty much the game is over.” – Jan Pachner, Secretary-General of One Ocean Foundation

OBP refers to abandoned plastic waste at risk of ending up in the ocean. Every year, around 10 million tonnes of plastic waste enters our oceans including plastic bags, bottles and single-use packaging.

Taking over 100 years to fully decompose, marine plastics may float, sink or break down into microplastics. The latter is often mistaken as food by marine animals, causing injuries and deaths. We, too, are not immune to unknowingly eating microplastics as we indulge in seafood cuisine.

In the manufacturing process, plastic litter is collected and converted into plastic pellets, which are then melted and shaped into plastic chairs by molding machines. Our collection of ocean-friendly chairs is made up of 40% of these recycled pellets, and they are of high durability with some being stackable to cater to F&B businesses.

A polyester with a purpose – the Camira Oceanic fabric is 100% made from post-consumer recycled plastic

Taking recycled plastic from both land and sea, each metre of Oceanic contains the equivalent of 26 plastic bottles, with 50% of it made from SEAQUAL® yarn. Choose to customise your upholstered furniture with the eco-friendly Oceanic fabric, knowing that you’ve played a part in helping to combat marine plastic pollution.

From waste to weave, the Oceanic fabric is a highly durable textile with an abrasion resistance tested to ≥100,000 Martindale cycles. Certified to the EU Ecolabel, this multi-tonal fabric details an intricate twill weave to create a subtle pattern to elevate any contemporary furniture.

Replacing natural wood in this composite, wood fiber is sustainable as it is just an excess or by-product coming from different stages of timber production.

Also known as wood-plastic composite (WPC), this composite mix is made of wood fiber, or wood flour, and thermoplastics. The used wood waste keeps the trees’ carbon sequestration and doesn’t contribute to more deforestation.

In our sustainable collection, we combined wood fibers with recycled and virgin plastics to create beautiful and functional pieces that are easy-to-clean and highly durable. This eco-friendly material is best used for outdoor furniture, like our Fossil Collection, as they have anti-UV properties.

Check out our best-selling Ohio fluted bases that are fire-retardant and formaldehyde-free – they can be matched with eco-friendly tabletops like Rubberwood and Sintered Stone to create a dining table that is pretty for your home and friendly to the environment.

Rubber trees are considered as renewable resources – this fast-growing species can be harvested in just 30 years as compared to traditional hardwoods that take up to 100 years.

Commercially developed specifically for rubber latex production, these plantations involve the cultivation of rubber trees in large-scale agricultural settings, and when done responsibly, rubber production can increase carbon sequestration to slow down global warming.

After the trees are harvested to serve its primary purpose of producing latex, they are given a second life to be timbers and lumbers instead of being burnt or discarded. Harvesting wood from rubber trees reduces the burden on tropical forests to address demands for wood, and eventually, less trees will be cut down from forests.

Due to its structural strength and aesthetic appeal, rubberwood is perfect to be made into bulky furniture such as dining tables, TV consoles and bed frames that boast elegance and high durability. Each piece of rubberwood furniture is unique with its own character and distinct woodgrains, making it one of a kind.

A natural solution to slow climate change – forests regulate our climate, clean the air we breathe, and filter the water we drink.

The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) is an international non-profit organisation established to promote responsible management of forests all over the globe. Healthy forests enable humanity to thrive, making them one of the most important resources on Earth as they touch so many areas of our lives. FSC warrants that trees are harvested responsibly so there is no net loss of forest over time and ensures that illegal logging and other harmful practices do not occur.

Our wood furniture is crafted with materials from well-managed forests under FSC while some are combined with recycled materials and by-products of wood-processing.
