Read About Turning Green with Envi™

Posted on: Thursday, March 06, 2008

Nathan Anthony Envi™ is eco-friendly furniture upholstered using natural, sustainable and re-usable materials. Envi™ is offered as an option on most of Nathan Anthony frames. The following materials are used:

Wood – All frames are made of sustainable hardwoods from forests that harvest wood responsibly by taking measures to protect endangered species and making sure to protect old growth.

Hemp – The inside structure of the frame consists of a combination of hemp and jute webbing instead of polyester webbing. Burlap is used over the springs for a strong durable surface.

Latex – Pure rubber-sap extract from protected rainforest trees is used to cover the frame and cushions, instead of polyurethane foam. Our Latex is 100% biodegradable and sure to out-live any petroleum-based foam.

Wool - Hypoallergenic wool fibers, instead of polyester fiber, wrap around 100% pure natural latex padding which helps to create the beautiful shapes that define Nathan Anthony furniture.

Organic Cotton – 100% organic cotton pads the frame and adds extra breathable comfort.

Fabrics – we offer fabrics containing natural fibers, linens and cottons and recycled yarns. Additionally, many of our microfibers like those from Ultrasuede® are eco-friendly.

Leg Finishes – non-chemical based paint.
