Bacana Chair MaterialsUpdated 8 months ago

Our seating is 100% vegan.

Fabrics:
1. Recycled Velvet: Sabai's Recycled Velvet fabric is made with 100% post-consumer recycled water bottles. It is both GRS and OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified. This fabric is made in China as that is where the majority of recycling occurs.


2. Upcycled PolySabai's Upcycled Poly fabric is made from 100% Olefin, a byproduct of refining petroleum. The yarn is inherently stain repellent and therefore has not had any chemical treatments, and can be cleaned with household cleaning products (including bleach) without being damaged. While synthetic, this fabric actually performs better than many natural fibers on the Higg index as it does not require any land or water to be produced (including in the dyeing process). Our upcycled poly fabric is Greenguard Gold certified. Made in the USA. 


3. Hemp: 100% all natural Hemp material. 

Our fabrics have not been treated to avoid harmful chemicals and off-gassing. 

Materials: 90% of our materials are sourced within 100 miles of our NC and TN factories.
Frame: FSC-certified solid wood frame that is maple-stained in a warm, water-based finished called Nutmeg. It is nontoxic and manufactured in NC. The frame construction uses a non VOC glue that is non-toxic and solvent-free with no added formaldehydes. 
Legs: Wood legs made from maple scrapwood.
Cushions: Made with Natural Latex Foam made of 100% Natural Talalay (made from collected sap). Foam is vacuum sealed and flash-cooled, allowing for uniform density. No flame retardants.
