Essential Collection MaterialsUpdated a month 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 Poly: Sabai'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: Furniture grade FSC-certified plywood (pine and birch) that is non-toxic. No added formaldehyde.
The mill our supplier sources from regularly tests for emissions and has a CARB/EPA TSCA Certification. Products that achieve CARB or TSCA certification are verified by a third party to comply with the formaldehyde emissions standards that are required for composite wood products to be sold in California and required by the EPA for products sold in the United States.
Legs: Wood legs made from domestically sourced maple, and with a low VOC stain.
(Our "natural" legs have lower VOCs because there's just one clear coat of finishing!)
Metal legs made of non-toxic machined solid aluminum.
Cushions: Made with CertiPUR-US certified high resiliency foam. No flame retardants.
Back Pillows: stuffed with recycled polyester fiber.
Underside of Black Fabric: Made out of standard non-woven poly fabric without any treatments.
Production: In 2021 we changed our manufacturing process from using a water-based glue to mechanical fasteners in the Upholstery process. This not only allowed us to further avoid chemicals but to make our furniture in a way that can easily allow our frame to be recycled or re-upholstered.
