Chipper Reclaimed Closed-Cell Foam Seat
Chipper Reclaimed Closed-Cell Foam Seat, The NEMO Chipper is more than just a lightweight and easily packed seat cushion. The Chipper is also a big step in sustainable manufacturing. Made entirely from reclaimed and remolded PE foam scraps from their sleeping pad production, NEMO is reducing their footprint and making a fun, unique, and extremely resilient product. The engineered contours provide an outsized feeling of suppleness and protect from cold surfaces. Chipper is an affordable, environmentally responsible and super-versatile companion for backpacking, gardening, travel, festivals, day trips, and sporting events.By reclaiming foam remnants from their pad manufacturing, in the first year of production NEMO is able to keep 8.8 tons of scrap foam out of the waste stream and 48 tons of carbon dioxide out of the air compared to using virgin materials. NEMO picked just the right blend of reclaimed scraps to give Chipper excellent support and resilience. And utilizing the hexagonal nesting pattern from their Switchback pad, NEMO was able to optimize for packed size and weight.
