FAQ
What does the designation RE stand for in Eames Plastic Sidechair RE DSW Promotion Set of 4?
The designation RE means that the Eames Plastic Sidechair RE DSW Promotion Set of 4 is made from recycled plastic, a material from which the Eames Plastic Chairs RE have been produced since the beginning of 2024. With the introduction of the new sustainable material, three new colour nuances were also introduced, the new white “Cotton White”, the new yellow “Citron” and the new green “Emerald”, which replace the previous colours white, sunlight and green respectively.
Which colours are new for the Vitra Eames Plastic Sidechair RE DSW Promotion Set of 4 after the RE material update?
The colours white, yellow and green differ from the original colours in the new recycled Eames Plastic Chairs version.
Will the Eames Plastic Sidechair RE DSW Promotion Set of 4 continue to be produced in the non-recycled material?
No, manufacture of the Eames Plastic Chairs in the unrecycled material version will cease in early 2024 and in the future only the sustainable material will be employed in the Eames Plastic Sidechair RE DSW Promotion Set of 4.
