HATCH (Dining Chair)

The rattan shown by Oggetti is sourced from Mindanao in the



Philippines. Rattan takes five years to fully grow. Today, with a
greater understanding of sustainability, rattan is being heavily re-
planted as trees are being cut. All Oggetti models are made and
torched entirely by hand. The only machines involved are for the
initial cutting and peeling of the rattan.

The rattan pole is usually cut in the beginning into 2-6 pieces.
Rattan is a perfect natural material for furniture because it is
extremely versatile. It is light but extremely strong and pliant.
Through manual torching It can be bent into various shapes and will
retain that shape. Also rattan accepts stains and paint well.

Rattan furniture utilizes a very small carbon foot print. The material
is sustainable and helps reduce dependence on timber resources.

HATCH (Dining Chair)

The Rattan material used, based on the description is sustainable.
Rattan can be fully grown and harvested within two years,
compared to some hardwoods which take up to 20-30 years.
Therefore, rattan is a completely sustainable product that is
environmentally friendly.

Unlike other materials that can produce a lot of waste during the
manufacturing process, every part of the rattan vine is used to
make durable, luxury furniture. The outer skin of the vine is peeled
back and used for weaving items such as baskets, chair seats and
tabletops while the solid core of the cane is cut into sections and
steamed, making it easier to manipulate into shape. Containing
nothing but recyclable fibres, rattan doesn’t emit harmful gases into
the atmosphere, helping to reduce our carbon footprint.
