emeco broom stool
Design Philippe Starck, 2014
Waste polypropylene, reclaimed wood, glass fiber
Made in USA by Emeco
"Working with Emeco has allowed me to use a recycled material and transform it into something that never needs to be discarded - a tireless and unbreakable chair to use and enjoy for a lifetime." -Philippe Starck
Philippe Starck and Emeco came together to create a new chair that is reclaimed, repurposed, recyclable - and designed to last. The chair is made from 75% waste polypropylene and 15% reclaimed wood fiber that would normally be swept into the trash, "Imagine", says Philippe Starck, "a guy who takes a humble broom and starts to clean the workshop and with this dust he makes new magic." That's why we call it Broom chair.
250 million tons of consumer waste & 7.6 billion tons of industrial waste are generated annually in America alone.
Made of 75% reclaimed polypropylene, 15% reclaimed wood fiber, 10% glass fiber & pigment. Broom is offered in your choice of colors in either a counter or bar height.
Please note: This product is made from 100% reclaimed materials - polypropylene mixed with wood fiber. The wood particles create a speckled texture that gives the surface a warmer, more natural touch. Lighter colors show the contrast of wood fibers more.

barstool: 17.25" w | 16.75" d | 39.25" h | seat: 30" h | 12 lbs.

Philippe Starck
Subversive, ethical, ecological, political, humorous… this is how I see my duty as a designer. Philippe Starck believes that creation, whatever form it takes, must improve the lives of as many people as possible.
Emeco holds tightly to a foundation of craftsmanship and utilitarian design. The guiding principle is sustainability, design plus craftsmanship.
