A durable bench crafted from recycled beverage cartons
Remake Bench is made from recycled beverage cartons in a special process that allows for a mix of materials, such as paper, plastic and aluminium, which can be recycled again and again. The material is a low-carbon, fully circular and excellent alternative to traditional furniture materials and thus a sustainable choice.
The strong, stable and versatile bench aligns with the principles of the circular economy and helps reduce the amount of waste generated in the furniture industry. Using the same screws, tools, methods and skills as wood, the bench has strong joints and a surface treatment suitable for any environment.
Among its many sustainable properties, the product reduces CO2 emissions and is fully recycled and recyclable. It contains no additives, VOCs or formaldehyde. The production generates no waste, uses no water and has zero emissions.

Recirculation of 7,000,000 kg of Nordic packaging waste
The Remake Bench is produced using Pack Wall Design Board from Recoma, a fully circular material made from recycled beverage cartons. This unique process allows paper, plastic, and aluminum to be repurposed again and again, reducing waste and minimizing environmental impact.
Every year, this material helps recirculate 7,000,000 kg of Nordic packaging waste that would otherwise be incinerated, preventing nearly 5,000 tons of CO2 emissions. The production process requires no additives or chemicals—just energy and raw materials sourced from discarded cartons—offering a sustainable alternative to traditional furniture materials.
By choosing the Remake Bench, you support not only innovative craftsmanship but also a responsible approach to resource use. Each Bench represents a shift toward a circular economy, proving that waste can become a valuable resource in the creation of lasting, high-quality design
