The chair’s shape subtly echoes the familiar majestic form of the whale’s tail. The seat back is made from 67 recycled PET bottles, fished out of the Amsterdam canals by Plastic Whale.

But not just the seat back, the cast iron base of the chair is also made from recycled materials, namely pressed steel waste from our own factory.

Our steel waste is pressed into blocks and then transported to Gieterij Rademakers, a foundry near to our factory. Rademakers processes our residual material in an automated process into high-quality cast iron components for our chair.
