It might be something of a little known fact, but if trees are harmed then they will release resin to fill in the spot where the damage has taken place, which is something Manufract Furniture takes into consideration with the hardwood tables they have created. The handcrafted Manufract Furniture is created using broken pieces of wood that have been repaired with eco resin to create a more wholesome, natural aesthetic that is somewhat pixelated in effect and ever-so modern.
Speaking on the designs, the manufacturers explain, "Inspired by the self-healing process of trees and we created a new and unique design. If a tree gets injured, it will naturally release resin to close the wound. This natural concept of wound-healing is used for the manufacturing process of these products. Broken pieces of wood are form-filled with a novel eco-resin to get the final shape. Each product is unique and crafted out of broken hardwood."
