What is the environmental footprint of a conference chair?

The environmental footprint of a conference chair includes embodied carbon in steel, aluminum, foam, and fabric materials (estimated 30–80 kg CO2e per chair depending on materials and manufacturing), as well as end-of-life recyclability. Chairs with recycled steel frames, bio-based foam, and recyclable nylon components have the lowest embodied carbon.
