Recyclable chair is designed to be returned to the manufacturer

During Dutch Design Week in October 2021, Dutch furniture brand Circuform launched a recycled plastic ‘deposit chair’ designed by Ineke Hans. The designer promised customers

that REX can be returned after extended use and receive a partial refund of EUR 20. Old chairs can then be either repaired and reused or recycled to create new chairs. The product is made using recycled plastic like fishing nets to minimize the environmental impact throughout the lifecycle. The company has set up a series of deposit stations around the Netherlands to make the process of returning the chairs easier.
