APPI Eco-Friendly Furniture

Sabai Design is a Sustainable Furniture Disruptor Led by Woman Founder

— March 21, 2024 — Eco
Phantila Phataraprasit, the trailblazing CEO of Sabai Design, is leading a revolution in the furniture industry. Inspired by both her mother's eco-tourism business in Thailand and her own frustrations as a consumer seeking stylish yet sustainable furniture without breaking the bank, Phataraprasit launched Sabai Design in 2019. The brand tackles a major consumer concern: how to balance affordability with environmental responsibility. Unlike traditional furniture companies that rely on cheap, often toxic materials, Sabai prioritizes eco-friendly options like recycled water bottles and cocolock fiber, a material created from coconut waste. This commitment to sustainability extends to local production, minimizing Sabai's carbon footprint.

Sabai's appeal extends beyond its eco-conscious practices. They offer a wide range of stunning and design-forward furniture, from couches and ottomans to chairs, tables, and rugs. The brand also caters to the needs of modern living spaces. Their furniture is easy to customize, order, and assemble, arriving flat-packed in multiple packages that fit effortlessly into tight spaces like elevators and cars, and are manageable to carry. This focus on convenience makes Sabai a perfect fit for urban dwellers.
