Material Content The Equa 2 chair’s components are constructed from plastic, aluminum, steel, and foam/textile. The Equa 2 chair is up to 93 percent recyclable at the end of its useful life. Equa 2 is comprised of 36-percent recycled materials. The recycled content breaks down to 19-percent post-consumer and 17-percent pre-consumer content. • All die-cast aluminum components are made from 100-percent recycled material and are 100 percent recyclable. • Plastic components are identified with an ASTM recycling code whenever possible, to aid in returning these materials to the recycling stream. • Steel components contain approximately 25- Environmental Product Summary EQUA 2® CHAIR L 1 Our sustainability goals by the year 2020: • Zero landfill • Zero hazardous waste generation • Zero air emissions (VOCs) • Zero process water use • 100 percent green electrical energy use • Company buildings constructed to a minimum LEED Silver certification • 100 percent of sales from DfE approved products Design Story: Ergonomic Comfort that’s Environmentally Responsible Bill Stumpf and Don Chadwick designed the Equa 2 with the belief that everyone, regardless of their size, shape, or organizational status, deserves a good, ergonomically supportive chair. The result is high-performance seating suitable for the range of activities one experiences in a typical workday. Throughout Equa 2’s design and development stages, we emphasized environmental responsibility in raw material selection and sourcing. Preference was given to materials from renewable and sustainable sources. Herman Miller’s Design Protocol Our commitment to corporate sustainability naturally includes minimizing the environmental impact of each of our products. Our Design for the Environment team (DfE) applies environmentally sensitive design standards to both new and existing Herman Miller products, utilizing the McDonough Braungart Design Chemistry (MBDC) Cradle to CradleSM Design Protocol. Cradle to Cradle Design Protocol goes beyond regulatory compliance to thoroughly evaluate new product designs in three key areas: •Material Chemistry and Safety of Inputs— What chemicals are in the materials we specify, and are they the safest available? • Disassembly—Can we take products apart at the end of their useful life, to recycle their materials? • Recyclability—Do the materials contain recycled content, and more importantly, can the materials be recycled at the end of the product’s useful life?
