Sustainability Meets Scandinavian Design in Reco
Behind the sleek Scandinavian design of EFG’s Reco chair, created in collaboration with Berg & Hindenes, lies a commitment to sustainability. Featuring a layer-by-layer design, Reco is created to last while minimising its environmental impact, combining timeless style with eco-conscious innovation.
Sustainability in Every Detail
Reco is made from FSC® certified* wood and recycled materials, it’s a responsible choice for eco-conscious spaces.
“When developing new products, we constantly conduct EPD analysis to carefully evaluate the environmental impact of different materials. By choosing a wooden structure over metal reduces the chair’s greenhouse gas emissions by more than 20 percent, making wood the better choice for both sustainability and functionality,” says Andreas Mattisson, Manager Product Development at EFG.
Reco’s EPD analysis offers transparency on materials and production, so that an informed and conscious decision can be made.

A Chair for the Future
With Reco, comfort and sustainability lead the way. Built for longevity, its layer-by-layer design makes repairs and replacements simple, while on-site reupholstery reduces waste. Reco embodies EFG’s vision for circular design, paired with responsibly sourced materials.
“We wanted Reco to be sleek and unobtrusive, so it wouldn’t dominate a room visually, especially in larger spaces. Its design is meant to enhance, not overpower, the environment,” say designers Berg & Hindenes.
