Note:
Made from plastic (80% recycled) combined with up to 25% wood fibres (total of 85% recycled content). The design only achieved a below average ERPR score as materials have been mixed to create the product. However, the manufacturer claims that the shell is stamped with the resin identification code for polypropylene (5) and can be recycled (after disassembly). The chair does not stack and is heavier than average but comes in a range of variants.
