Eco-friendly furniture for kids

The furniture is made to last

Central Coast based company Luca & Co is transforming plastic waste into eco-friendly and stylish child-sized furniture.

The company was founded by Jess Coulson, a mother-of-one from Bensville, who had a simple yet powerful vision to provide families with a one-stop destination for sustainable, ethical and eco-conscious children’s products that last.

“As a mum, I understand the profound responsibility of nurturing the next generation and cultivating a love for our planet from a young age,” she said.

The designs of Luca & Co’s table and chair sets are smooth, easy to clean and lightweight.

They are comfortable and easy to use, and come in a wide range of colours in either the speckled or solid plastic design.

Coulson said they were made to last.

Frustrated by flimsy and easily breakable products from big chain stores, she saw an opportunity to make a difference.

“What I love most about our products is that they are virtually unbreakable,” she said.

“The manufacturer tested throwing them from a two-storey building, and they did not break – that’s when I knew this was a product to invest in.

“Nowadays, everything breaks so easily, but these recycled table and chair sets will last throughout childhood.

“The furniture is not only a practical investment but also a conscious choice for environmentally-minded parents.”

The range also includes the Chubsy Chair which comes with a cushion.

It is available in 12 colours and its waterproof design suits indoor or outdoor spaces.

There is also a cute dog-shaped stool, available in 12 colours, which Coulson says is a huge hit with children.

The furniture is modern and eye-catching with prices starting from $149.

“I wanted to find a superior product that prioritises safety, sustainability and style,” Coulson said.

“A lot of homes need the living area to also act as a playroom, so I wanted pieces that look good alongside other furniture.”

To keep costs down and avoid warehousing expenses, Luca & Co ships products directly from the manufacturer, ensuring affordability for customers without compromising on quality.

“I spent a lot of time talking to different suppliers until I found one that would ship directly for me,” Coulson said.

“This direct-to-consumer model eliminates the cost of shipping and warehousing it here in Sydney, meaning we can offer competitive pricing.”

Luca & Co launched early this year and has already made waves globally, with orders coming from as far as a villa in Greece and interior designers in New York and Dubai.

“I never imagined it would take off like this, and I’m so pleased I took the plunge,” Coulson said.

With Christmas orders to be in by November 10, Coulson has introduced a special.
