INTRODUCING THE NEW

NASSAU COLLECTION

– POWERED BY SOCIAL PLASTIC ®

HOW 13.2MILLION PLASTIC BOTTLES WILL BECOME A GAME CHANGING RANGE OF FURNITURE IN 2022
This Global Recycling Day ( March 18th ), LifestyleGarden ® – one of the UK ’ s most exciting outdoor furniture manufacturers – has its eye firmly set on a more sustainable future with the launch of its new Nassau ® offering , powered by Social Plastic ®.
This incredible new collection of chairs and tables ( from RRP £ 299 ) has been created in a uniquely sustainable way by using ethically recycled Social Plastic ® from Plastic Bank , part of an exciting longterm partnership between the two brands . And , what a partnership it shall be , with both parties perfectly aligned in their vision to create a world without waste , further building on similar partnerships such as that with the Eden Project and the ground-breaking DuraOcean ® chair .
13.2 million bottles rebirthed in 2022 Not only will every Nassau chair be made from the equivalent of 175 recycled plastic bottles , but the range is already committed to utilising the equivalent of 13.2million bottles ( or 264,000kgs ) in its first year . That ’ s a lot of plastic ! However , the impact of the Nassau collection – launched in collaboration with the Eden Project once again - goes further than vital environmental protection . In a true industry first , this collection will also close the loop by positively impacting the social and economic communities within the Plastic Bank supply chain through the use of Social Plastic ®.
What is Social Plastic ®? Simply put , Social Plastic ® is ethically recovered plastic which helps fight ocean pollution , whilst simultaneously improving the lives of those who collect it .
