Catifa Carta: the sustainable evolution of iconic design

Catifa Carta design chair by Arper redefines what eco-conscious furniture can achieve. Crafted from PaperShell—a pioneering material born from recycled wood by-products—Catifa Carta brings the iconic Catifa silhouette into a new, sustainable era. PaperShell combines strength and comfort with a unique bio-curved design, while dramatically lowering environmental impact through carbon sequestration. Like trees, it absorbs and locks in CO₂, ultimately transforming into biochar at the end of its life cycle—a carbon-rich material that enriches soil and supports biodiversity.

The Catifa Carta’s sleek shell, available in a coffee hue, stands as a symbol of responsible luxury. With options for a steel or aluminum base and customizable covers, it offers versatility alongside environmental respect. Arper’s dedication to sustainability is certified by global environmental standards, marking it as a choice that truly supports the planet.
