Pentatonic launches new brand of modern furniture made with nothing but trash

Pentatonic is launching their furniture collection this week.

Pentatonic transforms trash into sustainable furniture.

Their AirTool Chair is made with trash like plastic bottles and aluminum cans.

The furniture is modular, and can be built without tools.

They made their first collection with 90 percent local trash.

Pentatonic will take products back when customers are finished with them.

Their AirTool Foil Table is made with waste like old CDs or DVDs.

The company says they don't use additives, toxins, glues, or resins.

Pentatonic is also selling glassware made from smartphone glass.

They sourced their smartphone glass from Taiwan.

There's more to these <a href="http://inhabitat.com/tag/chairs/" target="_blank">chairs</a> and <a href="http://inhabitat.com/tag/tables/" target="_blank">table</a> than you might expect. New brand <a href="https://www.pentatonic.com/en_de/" target="_blank">Pentatonic</a>, launching this week, is making <a href="http://inhabitat.com/tag/modular-furniture/" target="_blank">modular furniture</a> out of <a href="http://inhabitat.com/tag/trash/" target="_blank">trash</a>, but their commitment goes beyond simply <a href="http://inhabitat.com/tag/recycling/" target="_blank">recycling</a>. They aim to use solely waste as a starting point, and create their own materials out of garbage like <a href="http://inhabitat.com/tag/plastic-bottles/" target="_blank">plastic water bottles</a> and glass from smartphones. They pledge to take back their recyclable products when a consumer is finished with them, and turn them into new pieces.
