RePlay

Your Sebel chairs have had a good run. RePlay is our furniture recycling program that gives them a second life — we collect your end-of-life chairs, chip them down, and mould them into brand new recycled chairs. Less landfill. More chairs.

We’re on a mission to reduce plastic waste.

Australia has a plastic problem. We’re doing something about it.

Each year, Australia consumes nearly 3.8 million tonnes of plastic — and only 12.6% of it gets recycled. At Sebel, we’re not just talking about change. We’re looking at our own products and taking responsibility for what happens to them at the end of their life.

Sebel RePlay plastics to be recycled

Over 460 tonnes of plastic. Out of landfill. Every year.

That’s what we could divert from landfill annually if all Postura chairs were returned through RePlay. It starts with your school, your office, your organisation.

How RePlay Works

Three easy steps. Recycling your chairs is easier than you think.

New Chairs. Made from Old Ones.

Here’s what happens after we pick them up.

Once your chairs arrive at our factory, our in-house granulator gets to work — chipping them down into plastic pellets that are then moulded into brand new recycled chairs. No middlemen. No mystery. Start to finish, all under one roof.

The Bigger Picture. RePlay is just the start

We’re rethinking every stage of our product’s life — from how it’s made to what happens when it’s retired. Because making great furniture and doing the right thing by the planet shouldn’t be mutually exclusive.
Here’s what we’re working on:

  • Giving our iconic chairs a second life through RePlay
  • Keeping furniture waste out of landfill
  • Integrating recycled plastics across our product range
  • Cutting emissions through electric vehicles, solar panels and heat pump systems at our sites

We’re proud of the progress. And honest that the journey’s ongoing.

Sustainability at Sebel

RePlay is just one part of Sebel’s broader approach to responsible manufacturing and sustainable school furniture. From locally made products using recycled materials to low-waste production methods, we’re rethinking every stage of the product lifecycle.
