Rattan is a natural product derived from the stem core of the Calamus Rotang palm, which grows as a climbing vine in tropical rainforests. Carl Hansen & Søn sources rattan from Indonesian plantations, and it is renowned for its beautiful and varied colour spectrum.

Furniture webbing is produced from 85% recycled cotton. 15% polyethylene increases the webbing’s water and moisture resistance. Cotton webbing is preferred as it has good load bearing capacity and prevents the webbing from starting to sag over time.
