The 111 Navy Chair

Sarah Simmsthings


When you recycle a plastic bottle, you're doing something good. When you recycle 111 of them, you're doing something great.


The 111 Navy Chair ($230) via Design Within Reach was developed by way of a joint effort between Coca Cola and Emeco. It took four years of research, design and materials testing to create this chair, which is a plastic version of the iconic 1006 Navy® Chair, also by Emeco. It was designed to have the attributes of the original aluminum version – strength, durability and comfort.  The production of this chair is expected to keep three million plastic Coke bottles out of landfills each year. The chair comes in six colors including: charcoal, flint, grass, persimmon, white, and coca cola red. These chairs would be great for your indoor or outdoor dining room table.
