Top 100: Coco Wolf's Building Blocks for Renewable Outdoor Living

By Heather Collier

On the eve of the Top 100: Building Green Giants Film Premiere, Superyachts.com sat down with Rebecca and James Lorimer, Founders of Coco Wolf; a luxury outdoor furniture brand now situated in the heart of West London.

Rebecca and James founded their brand in 2014 with a vision to inject elegance and style into the world of outdoor furnishing; revolutionising the way we live outside. 

"From the manufacturing side, all of our power comes from renewable sources. None of our products go into landfill, and we use recyclable and organic materials, as well as reusable bags that remove any need for unnessecary packaging around the furniture," says James.

Coco Wolf prioritise sustainable practices at every stage of engineering, carefully selecting only responsibly sourced timber from managed forests, as well as reusing and recycling raw materials where possible.

Fabric, foam, leather, paper, plastic and steel waste from production and administration is collected for reuse, reprocessing or recycling.

"All of the foams and materials are 100% recyclable. Due to new technology, we're now using a fifth of the amount of timber that we used to use. We want to build our furniture to last, that's paramount. Easy to maintain, easy to repair, with the ability to rejuvenate each piece."

"We wanted to create a new collection which was centred around the idea of organic shapes, and in the process we have sourced many sustainable outdoor fabrics. It's a completely different look to all of our other collections." adds Rebecca. 

With progressive strategies in place, new collections, and exciting projects in the superyacht industry on the horizon, Coco Wolf are now thrilled to announce the opening of their new showroom in London:

"We've just opened up a new showroom on King's Road in Chelsea, which we're really excited about. It's in the hub of London; our flagship if you will." 

"Sustainability for us is a long-term commitment, it's not just a passing fad." says James.

"We're determined to make a difference moving forward, especially for the younger generations."
