Designed to endure, it stands as the world’s first mycelium-composite dining chair approved for contract use. It marks a milestone in sustainable furniture design and establishes itself as a true design icon.

The Naked editions of the Banet Chairs embody a refined expression of material innovation and natural beauty. Crafted using an advanced, 100% biodegradable resin, each piece is finished by hand with a durable yet exquisitely tactile finish that enhances the integrity of the mycelium-based composite.

This translucent resin unveils the material’s raw, fibrous soul, celebrating its organic origins. No two pieces are alike. The resin not only enhances the visual quality, it also reinforces the surface and makes it a hardwearing finish.

Additional comfort comes from a bio-degredable seaweed-based foam cushion, enveloped by a Kvadrat cotton velvet upholstery offering a sensorial contrast of softness and structure, and lasting comfort.

Mycelium is the underground network through which forests communicate. A branching web of threads that binds, nourishes, and renews. Combined with Hemp fibre, Mycelium grows into a material of surprising rigidity, warmth, and textural depth.

The manufacturing process, in the Netherlands, is as harmless to people and the environment as the material itself, being completey free of toxins or synthetics. And at the end of its life, each piece of MBC composts fully, returning to the same earth that made it.

The final product is a solid, dry, and inert product. It contains zero live biological agents, zero active spores, and no organic matter capable of regeneration. The product poses no phytosanitary or bio-security risk to the importing country. Labeled by Maker See less
