The outdoor furniture collection is powered by [Social Plastic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/martn-martn-arquitectos), a company dedicated to a more sustainable future. Social Plastic's contribution to the launch equipped the manufacturers with ethically recovered plastic found in oceans. The collected plastic waste is washed, flaked, and put through a recycling process where LifestyleGarden transforms it into its Nassau Collection. LifestyleGarden's new range includes chairs and tables that are created using the mentioned sustainable practice. The collection builds on similar partnerships between the two companies, including the [Eden Project](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eden-rise-vertical) and the DuraOcean chair, which inspired a new range of chairs and tables.
