Bamboo Child's Chair

Funnable is designed and manufactured by Fell Design in Philadelphia.  Fell Design strives to produce furniture using sustainable methods and materials.  Doing so means meeting today's needs without compromising the ability of future generations to sustain themselves. We choose to design and build fine furniture from materials and finishes that are healthier for you as well as for the environment.

Our Woods:

Our furniture is constructed from FSC-certified hardwoods and bamboo plywoods. The FSC stamp, created by the Forest Stewardship Council, ensures that all parties involved in the planting, harvesting, shipment, rough cutting, and sale of hardwoods are committed to sustainable practices. This includes a constant internal analysis of production methods in an effort to reduce the harmful effects of traditional lumber practices. Bamboo plywoods are relatively new to the American market, and offer craftsmen an abundant and rapidly-renewable material that has a much less harmful effect on the ecological regions in which it is grown. Bamboo is a grass that continually sends up new shoots after being harvested by hand, so it does not require replanting.  Mature bamboo can be harvested every seven years.  The remaining shoots are left to regrow to full maturity for an eventual reharvest.

Our Finishes:

Our furniture is sealed with water-based natural whey and soy finishes. This helps to support our sustainable mission in two ways; first, we are reducing our dependence on common petroleum-based finishes, and second, our furniture is protected by a long-lasting and durable finish with VOC levels much lower than the Federal minimum standard. This ensures a better air quality and healthier product for your home. In addition, all of the cans our finishes are shipped to us within are made from post consumer materials which are recycled after use.

You also have the choice to pick milk paints for the finish of your furniture.  Mlik paints are a traditional finish manufactured with organic compounds that are completely biodegradable.
