Fishing Bottles & Materials From Amsterdam’s Canals
One remarkable way in which Vepa source the materials for their innovative furniture is by recovering plastic bottles directly from Amsterdam’s canals. These bottles are then cleaned, shredded, and transformed into durable PET felt and foam – the foundation of these stylised chairs.
VEPA’S PET BOTTLE RECYCLING PROCESS:

Plastic Whale by Vepa: Turning Canal Waste into Circular Office Furniture
Plastic Whale by Vepa is a ground-breaking partnership between Vepa and the social enterprise Plastic Whale, created to tackle the global plastic waste crisis head-on. Together, they produce circular office furniture made from PET plastic fished directly from the canals of Amsterdam. This unique collaboration transforms waste into high-quality, sustainable office pieces – combining environmental action with innovative Dutch design.

Each piece reflects a commitment to circular design, made with reclaimed materials and Vepa’s own production waste. This partnership not only cleans waterways but also sets a new benchmark for sustainable, impactful furniture.
Fully Plant-Based Chairs – 100% Locally Sourced Bio-Material
Another way in which Vepa craft their innovative seating is by using hemp grown locally in the Netherlands. This fast-growing crop is cultivated without artificial fertilisers or pesticides, then harvested and combined with a unique plant-based resin to form a super-strong, biodegradable shell. The result is a fully plant-based material that’s renewable, recyclable, and ideal for circular furniture design.
