Emeco (The Electric Machine and Equipment Co.) [mentioned previously here] has been producing chairs from reclaimed and recycled materials in Hanover, PA since 1944.
According to Emeco, “the Broom Chair is reclaimed, repurposed, recyclable — and designed to last.” The chair is made using 90% industrial waste, reclaiming plastic and wood fibers from the industry floors, materials that otherwise would be swept into the trash and end up in the landfill.
