Built with circularity in mind, no adhesives are used, making Sia easily separable for repair and/or recovery of components. More specifically, the task chair consists of 70.6% recycled content, including 43.1% post-consumer plastics. As a result, at the end of its working life, 99.4% of the product’s materials can be reused.
