Our eco-velvet is made from extracts of recycled plastic bottles that were headed for landfill or our oceans. Every one metre of fabric is made from thirty 550ml bottles, in short: a Model 04 is made from 300 plastic bottles.

Sustainable Sofas FAQs
Interested in owning a sustainable sofa? All of your questions answered below:
-
What makes a furniture sustainable?
Sustainability refers to how the furniture is made – and whether it’s done in an environmentally friendly way. Materials are usually focused on being sourced in a renewable or sustainable way.
Sustainability not only factors in minimising waste, energy consumption, and reduced carbon emissions, but also taking into account the product’s longevity. The furniture is built in a way which reduces the need for it to be replaced further down the line. Using finishes that are plant-based or don’t have negative impacts on the environment also feeds into what makes furniture sustainable.
-
What makes a sofa eco-friendly?
An eco-friendly sofa follows the same principles as sustainable furniture. Eco-friendly sofas also have a focus on longevity – at Swyft, we offer a 15 year frame guarantee because our frames are hand built and we know our sofas will last.A sustainable sofa will also come with recycled fabrics or fabrics that naturally have less of a negative environmental impact. -
Which fabric is most environmentally friendly?
All recycled fabrics are environmentally friendly – our fabric that is made from recycled materials is the eco-velvet, which comes from plastic bottles. Linen is also made from flax plant which requires fewer pesticides than other materials; it’s also biodegradable.
-
Why is eco-friendly furniture good?
Eco-friendly furniture is good for many reasons; the first being because it promotes efficient use of resources, reducing waste and landfill consumption. There is a focus on longevity, which not only means it has a longer lifespan, but also the quality of the furniture is of a higher standard. Eco-friendly furniture is also made with less harmful chemicals which is better for the environment and healthier for the home.
-
Does an eco-friendly sofa mean compromising on quality?
Not at all. In fact, it’s the opposite. An eco-friendly or sustainable sofa promotes quality. As mentioned above, most eco-friendly furniture has a focus on longevity which means the quality of furniture is better. That’s the same for sofas – our sofas come with a 15 year frame guarantee because our frames are hand built and made to last. Our sustainable fabrics also meet, and exceed, the threshold for residential fabrics. And come with natural properties that replenish stains.
