When it comes to outdoor furniture, true luxury begins with materials that can brave sun, sea, and time without compromising style. Yet finding outdoor furniture that blends unique design, exceptional comfort, lasting durability, and responsible craftsmanship can be a challenge. Founded on a spirit of innovation, DEDON meets that challenge with our proprietary fiber, a material that redefines what luxury outdoor living can be.
What Makes the DEDON Fiber Exceptional
Developed through years of research and precise German engineering, the DEDON fiber outperforms natural rattan and wicker in every way. Unlike these alternatives, our fiber resists UV rays, saltwater, chlorine, and extreme temperatures without cracking or fading. Its rich color and supple texture endure year after year with minimal upkeep. At the same time, our fiber’s soft touch and natural look rival organic materials while allowing designers to explore forms and styles that wouldn’t be possible with other materials.
Reflecting our commitment to sustainability, the DEDON fiber is produced entirely in-house in Germany under the highest environmental standards. Our groundbreaking EcoCycle fiber takes this dedication even further. Derived from 90% plant-based resources, it offers a sustainable alternative to conventional, fossil-fuel-based materials while preserving a luxurious look and feel. Our SEASHELL NUO collection, made entirely from EcoCycle fiber, proudly received the 2024 Metropolis Planet Positive Award, which recognizes excellence in sustainable design.
The Art of the Weave
Every DEDON furniture piece is handwoven at our zero-waste facilities on Cebu Island in the Philippines, where master weavers transform our fiber into patterns of extraordinary artistry and innovation. Established in 2000, DEDON Philippines is strategically located in the heart of Cebu Island’s furniture district. Our 15,500 square meter manufacturing center is a bustling hub of creativity and expertise, where around 260 expert craftsmen work diligently every day. We regard Cebu as our second home, cherishing its vibrant culture and welcoming community while providing an excellent work environment that fosters collaboration, teamwork, and camaraderie.
The art of weaving is deeply rooted in the history of Asia and is a skill inherited and perfected by our master weavers, who are among the most talented in the world. Using diverse techniques and fiber types, our artisans skillfully create designs ranging from light and open to solid and tightly woven, ensuring that every piece of DEDON furniture is a distinctive masterpiece. A single piece can require up to 1,700 yards of fiber and 60 hours of meticulous weaving, blending modern technology and centuries-old artisanry, all completed entirely in-house.
