Furniture and home decor in general is more often than not crafted with virgin materials, which is something the UPPAREL 'FLIP UP' sofa is designed to change with its upcycled textile construction. The sofa is characterized by its 100% upcycled textile construction that is designed with kids in mind to offer them a comfy place to sit as well as a cozy spot to nap. This is thanks to its folding construction that will open up to transform the cushion into a supportive spot to lay out.
The UPPAREL 'FLIP UP' sofa is made with upcycled components, but is also aware of what will happen at the end of the product's life. This is supported with its ability to be recycled after use for a truly sustainable construction.
