Refurbishment

Refurbish existing furniture with our circular materials CoolLeather, CoolCork, CoolJeans or CoolConcrete. Three award-winning examples of finishings that integrate waste from the local leather, cork and textile recycling industries.

In the past decades, society has been overwhelmed with beautiful and timeless interior design. Unfortunately, these timeless designs were not made to last, resulting in 11 billion kg of furniture being discarded in the EU every year. Circular solutions like reupholstering are expensive and wasteful, and recycling a furniture piece is very complex and only happens with 10% of furniture in the EU. During upholstery, old fabric is thrown away (hopefully for recycling), new upholstery creates waste (25% to 45% offcuts), and many shapes are nearly impossible to handle or disassemble, as the average piece contains 20 – 30 different materials.

Cooloo Endless Life® - CoolJeans

Circularity index of over 95%

Used table tops, old chairs, worn sofa’s, cabinets and acoustic panels can get a new look and feel. The solution is Cooloo’s Circular Coatings. Maintain and repair the old furniture piece, shine the frame, and coat the seating with one of the new layers made from waste materials, and your product is as good as new. Ready for a second life, suitable for an Endless Life®.
