The Recycle Chair offers sustainable seating through its shell made from upcycled plastic waste collected and processed in central Europe. Its paper-crease inspired form provides contemporary character, while the recyclable material ensures environmental benefits. The chromed steel base adds structural support and metallic accent, creating a chair that balances ecological responsibility with modern design appeal.
Designed by Japanese studio nendo for Fritz Hansen, the N02 Recycle Chair’s shell is crafted using plastic waste that is collected, processed and upcycled in central Europe. The benefit of this material is that it can be recycled in the future, if necessary. The shell itself was inspired by a simple crease of paper spotted on a work table and rests on a chromed steel base.
