Story
Morrison and Emeco's aluminum craft
Age-proof, weather-proof, trend-proof: for the 1 Inch All Aluminum family, Jasper Morrison tapped into Emeco's heritage of hand crafting recycled aluminum. The result is a seating family that is strong, simple, timeless and engineered to last, made in the USA.
Marine-approved aluminum
Emeco aluminum furniture is approved for marine applications, meaning it meets higher standards for corrosion resistance in salt-air environments. The same demand came from the US Navy when Emeco began making mil-spec chairs for ships and submarines in 1944. The hand brushed finish is anodized: the process thickens the natural oxide layer of the recycled aluminum so the surface becomes a hard wearing, scratch resistant, all-weather aluminum oxide.
