The Broom Chair

Here it is!  Phillippe Starck's and Emeco's Broom Bar Stool.  Made of 75% waste polypropylene and 15% reclaimed wood.  This piece of art is reclaimed, repurposed, and recyclable.  But, who would want to recycle it?   Phillippe Starck, "Imagine, a guy who takes a humble broom and starts to clean the workshop and with the dust he makes new magic."  That is why it is called the broom chair!

Emeco developed a environmentally sound material from 90% industrial waste. Wood polymers are composites made from reclaimed industrial polypropylene waste collected from the plastic manufacturing industry and reclaimed wood fibers from the lumbar industry.  WWP is used often for outdoor decking material, outdoor furniture, and fencing.  The Broom chair is made from discarded materials, reclaimed BEFORE the recycling process takes place. This saves natural resources and reduces energy use.  

"Working with Emeco has allowed me to use a recycled material and transform it into something that never needs to be discarded - a tireless and unbreakable chair to use and enjoy for a lifetime.

It is a chair you never own, you just use it for a while until it is the next persons turn. A great chair never should have to be recycled. This is good consideration of nature and man kind."

- Philippe Starck
