Craymer's design and sensitivity are to be commended. Another nice touch would be using a non-polluting dye on the actual upholstery - here is a study on the potential culprits: http://dyespigments.com/pollution-control-dyeing-units.html

Maintainable furnishings style is an effort to address the ecological effect of Sustainable Furniture items on the surroundings by considering all factors of the style and production procedure. Design concerns can include using reprocessed components in the production procedure and using items that can be taken apart and reprocessed after their useful life. Maintainable furnishings style aims to create a closed-loop pattern in which components and items are constantly reprocessed so as to avoid convenience in dumps. The Think Seat by Steelcase is a latest example of sustainable furnishings style.
