New furniture which is manufactured using plastic recycled from old games consoles has been unveiled.
Created by Pli Design, the Reee chair was created after the company consulted advisory services into how it can re-use plastics to create furniture.
According to Azom.com, the company already designs and produces furniture from eco-friendly products including bamboo.
Christopher Pett, managing director of Pli Design, told the website what the company aims to do.
He explained: "We aim to use the latest sustainable materials and production methods in contemporary designs - we are always looking to explore new materials and manufacturing techniques."
In a recent article for Homemakers.com, Michael Vuksta, the vice-president of President’s Choice Home, outlined what people should look out for when buying outdoor furniture.
He urged consumers to consider "timeless designs", buy items that can survive in all kinds of weather and mix a number of materials including natural fibres and glass.
