Tip Ton & Tip Ton RE, Edward Barber & Jay Osgerby, 2011/20
In 2020 Vitra developed a version of Tip Ton by Edward Barber and Jay
Osgerby that is manufactured from recycled plastic: Tip Ton RE. The high-
quality recycling material stems from post-consumer household waste,
particularly used packaging. The dark grey hue of the chair is the natural
shade of the processed recycling material, which therefore exhibits very
slight irregularities in colour. Tip Ton RE is itself 100% recyclable and can
be stacked up to four chairs high.
