When 120 Countries Can’t Agree, Your Choice Matters 🌍⁠
The world is waking up to the plastic crisis. We see it in our oceans, on our beaches, and in the news every day. Recently, 120 countries failed to reach a common agreement on a global plastic treaty. While governments debate, plastic continues to threaten our planet.⁠
The scale of the problem can feel overwhelming, and it’s easy to believe that individual actions don’t matter.⁠
But what if they did?⁠
At Wehlers, we believe that every purchase is a choice — and a chance to make an impact.⁠
Together, we can make a difference — one chair at a time.⁠

Our Fisherman’s Green ⁠🎣⁠
Fishing net: Abandoned nets pose a severe threat to life in our oceans and coasts, causing entanglements and pollution. Using discarded fishing net as material for products is both eco-friendly and contribute to cleaner oceans and a healthier planet. The majority of all fishing nets used in our products are collected from Danish or Faroe waters and sorted by hand in Denmark to ensure a correct usage of the material.⁠

Our Keyboard Black ⁠🖤⁠
Electronic waste, or e-waste, consist of recycled plastic from discarded electronic devices. With technological appliances being produced and consumed in a large extent – the fastest growing waste stream in Europe – it becomes important to reuse the considerable abundant amount of e-waste that, due to our consumption, only naturally arises. Discarded electronic devices contribute to toxic waste streams, yet many of their components can be salvaged and repurposed. ⁠
By integrating e-waste into furniture production, we can create unique technologically infused pieces while diverting harmful materials. ⁠
All our e-waste material is from Austria.⁠

1. Utilizing Existing Resources ♻️💚🌎️⁠
⁠
Recycled plastic is made from repurposed materials, reducing the need for extracting new raw materials like petroleum. This process lessens the environmental burden associated with resource extraction and manufacturing, while simultaneously giving new life to materials that might otherwise end up as waste in landfills or polluting ecosystems.⁠
In contrast, producing wooden chairs often involves cutting down trees. While wood is a renewable resource, the growth cycle of many tree species spans decades. Deforestation contributes to biodiversity loss and increases greenhouse gas emissions, as trees that would otherwise absorb CO₂ are removed from the environment.⁠
