In our furniture, we use materials with a recycled content of up to 100%. Several plastic shell components are made entirely from recycled material. PET materials are also incorporated into various shells, with a recycled content of up to 100%. The steel used in Casala furniture contains up to 80% recycled content. Our fabric collections also include options made with recycled materials, such as California, produced with Seaqual Yarn from recycled polyethylene terephthalate sourced from plastic bottles collected from the sea.

We use sustainable types of timber with FSC® or PEFC certification. This enables us to guarantee that the processed wood comes from responsibly managed forests. The core of several upholstered ranges is made from recycled wood, which can be fully recycled again after use. This approach extends the lifecycle of materials and supports the circular economy. By carefully selecting reusable and sustainable materials, we aim to minimise our ecological impact.

Many of the plastics we use are made from recycled material, such as the plastic seat and back of the Curvy seating Family, which consist entirely of 100% recycled plastic. Casala’s floor glides are also 100% recyclable and are often already made from recycled material. In this way, we integrate a circular approach into all our production processes, minimising waste and maximising the lifespan of materials.

The Omega seating range is fitted with felt seat shells made from an impressive 100% recycled PET, contributing to a sustainable production process. To further reduce the ecological footprint, the seat shells are attached to the frame without the use of glue or tape. The seat shells are fully recyclable, after which the material can be processed into new granulate. This granulate can then be used to produce new high-quality plastic products. In this way, we not only contribute to the circular economy, but also ensure the long lifespan of the materials.

A wide fabric collection is available from Casala and other suppliers, including fabrics made from 100% recycled yarn. The use of adhesives in upholstery is avoided as much as possible to facilitate disassembly and the separation of materials after long-term use. Offcuts are efficiently compressed with a baling press and reintroduced into the production chain for reuse. This approach not only contributes to a more sustainable production process, but also ensures a long-lasting, circular lifecycle for our furniture.

Our soft seating products (sofas and armchairs) are filled with Naturalis foam, in which fossil oil is replaced as much as possible by plant-based castor oil. The foam is resilient, durable, and retains its seating comfort without sagging, even after years of use. This material is less harmful to the environment than standard CMHR cold foam. The foam is supplied to order in the correct shape, without any leftover material. Any remaining foam is reused in room-in-room products and cushion fillings, ensuring that no waste is produced. By applying No Sag springs, we reduce the foam volume and extend the lifespan of our products.

The tube and rodsteel frames used by Casala contain the maximum possible proportion of recycled steel. This proportion depends on the available quantity of secondary steel and the specific strength requirements of the steel. Depending on the product, the share of recycled steel currently reaches up to 80%. Steel is an environmentally responsible material, as it is fully recyclable and essentially not subject to wear. Steel offcuts are recycled by a local processor. The aluminium components of Casala furniture are made from 100% recycled aluminium.

Casala is committed to sustainability and uses environmentally friendly types of wood. The processed chipboard and MDF board material consist entirely of recycled raw materials and are 100% recyclable. Residual materials such as sawdust and finely ground waste wood are processed into pellets using a pellet press. These pellets serve as fuel for a pellet-fired central heating system that warms the production facility, contributing to more efficient energy use.
