About Matek:

The uniquely patented materials enable us to make furniture of waste materials by combining fibre with a binder. Coffee bean shells, extracted during the roasting process, are an example of fibre material. Sawdust from wood production is another. The binder material is made from plastic waste or a plastic-based alternative. The mix of materials results in a unique compound suitable for press moulding - a well-known technique in the furniture industry.

The technology behind Matek allows us to capture carbon in our furniture by recycling waste into timeless classics using resources already available to us, instead of virgin materials. To produce Matek, we either use post-consumer waste or post-industrial waste available to us through successful collaborations with large-scale corporations. We help process their waste streams and make them suitable for furniture production – beneficial to themselves and others.
