Description
Pato Paper Sledge Barstool
Pato Paper Sledge Barstool features a shell made of PaperShell – a 100% bio-based cellulose composite free of fossil carbon, cast in Sweden. The frame is made of solid steel wire with options for a chrome-plated or powder-coated finish and equipped with replaceable plastic glides for durability. The bar stool is available in several variants and can be customized for both bar and kitchen counter heights. A sustainable and contemporary solution where modern design meets circular material choices and functionality.

A new era in circular design
The newest member of the Pato Collection takes a big step toward a regenerative design future. Built in collaboration with Swedish innovators PaperShell, the chair’s shell is crafted entirely from biogenic material – fossil-free, chemical-free, and designed for full circularity.
With the Pato Paper Chair, timeless Scandinavian design meets radical sustainability, setting a new standard for high-performance furniture made to last and made responsibly.
100% biobased material
PaperShell is produced from FSC-certified craft paper and impregnated with a bio-based binder. It is sourced entirely from biological residues from Nordic forestry and agricultural industries, reflecting a commitment to eco-friendly innovation.
It is 100% biobased, 100% fossil-free, and, when circulated correctly, has the potential to become carbon-negative.
When correctly processed via pyrolysis, PaperShell can return to the earth as high-grade biochar, a carbon-rich substance that captures CO2 and promotes soil regeneration. This makes it potentially carbon-negative at the end of life. Currently, PaperShell supplies biochar to plant nurseries, where it is used to enhance soil quality and plant growth.
KRAFT PAPER
PaperShell material is produced from FSC-certified craft paper, sourced entirely from biological residues from Nordic forestry.
PRESSED COMPONENT
32 layers of kraft paper impregnated with a bio-based binder are pressed into a component.
FINAL DESIGN
This material consolidates into a durable, high-performing composite that can re-enter the cycle at the end of use.
WASTE
Through pyrolysis, the shells and production waste can be returned to earth as biochar.
BIOCHAR
Biochar is a carbon-rich substance that captures CO2 and promotes soil regeneration.
BIODIVERSITY
Biochar becomes a valuable soil enhancer, improving water retention, nutrient availability, and microbial activity.
