Explore the Current series, a prime example of Satelliet’s commitment to people and the environment within the Still Usable Materials (SUM) initiative. This collection marks a significant milestone as Satelliet’s first product family crafted entirely from recycled materials, with an emphasis on sustainability and innovation.
Recycling Partnership in Indonesia
Satelliet initiated the recycling process in collaboration with a trusted Indonesian producer, a partner for over 25 years in manufacturing furniture with plastic wickerwork. The frames of the Current series are ingeniously crafted from recycled aluminium, while the synthetic wickerwork is composed of recycled plastic. This long-standing partnership has allowed Satelliet to evolve alongside advancements in technology and design, fostering a shared vision for the future and sustainability possibilities.
Pioneering Recycling Efforts
The decision to use recycled materials in the Current series is a strategic move in addressing the global plastic waste crisis, especially pertinent in countries like Indonesia. The initiative began with a journey to Indonesia, where Satelliet sought out a reputable recycling company to collect, sort, and process plastic, transforming it into a new raw material for furniture production.
Collaboration with MVO Nederland
Satelliet’s quest for a reliable recycling partner led them to MVO Nederland, a renowned organisation supporting companies, including Satelliet, in identifying sustainable collaboration opportunities. As our trusted advisor, MVO Nederland played a crucial role in connecting us with a recycling company capable of supplying recycled plastic as a raw material for the production of the Current series.
Satelliet’s Current series is a testament to the company’s dedication to sustainability and environmental responsibility. By embracing recycled materials and fostering partnerships, Satelliet continues to pioneer innovative solutions in furniture design, setting new standards for eco-friendly practices in the industry. Explore the Current series to experience the perfect blend of style, comfort, and environmental consciousness.
