Clearly, retailers are anticipating the permanent return of warm weather as much as I am, because everywhere I turn, all I see is outdoor furniture and more outdoor furniture. I received an alert this week that Room & Board has a pretty large clearance sale on outdoor furnishings. I wasn’t too hopeful that the sale would include any eco-friendly pieces, but it turns out I was wrong.
About a year ago, I featured the GO Club Chair by Loll Designs, which is made of 100% recycled polyethylene. Room & Board has the entire GO collection on sale for 50% or more of. Not bad at all. This includes the GO sofa, cocktail table, and side table. There are several pieces from Loll’s other collections, including the Emmet Ottoman, and the Brighton chair for just $49.99 and table for $199.99. The Brighton pieces are made of 50% recycled plastic, 50% recycled paper-based fiber composite, better known as Richlite.
If you love the clean lines of modern furniture, I’d suggest you head over there in a hurry. I’m told the prices will last all summer long, but I’m guessing that the inventory won’t.
Why It’s Green:
- All products made from 100% recycled post consumer HDPE (high-density polyethylene)
- Furniture is recyclable
Price: $49.99-399

I’m LOVING that furniture!
These patio furniture look very strong, the price are excellent, I wander if they come in other colors, they will look great in bright colors.

@Rafael I know they come in other colors directly from Loll, but it looks like Room & Board only carries the black versions. Good luck!
