  • Congratulation! Sacco Goes Green, made with ECONYL® yarn, is awarded with “NYC AwardxDesign” for the category “Greater Good”

Congratulation! Sacco Goes Green, made with ECONYL® yarn, is awarded with “NYC AwardxDesign” for the category “Greater Good”

Sacco Goes Green, made by Zanotta, has claimed the NYCxDESIGN Award in the “Greater Good: social + environmental impact” promoted by Interior Design Magazine.

The category “Greater Good” is focused on projects that have a value in terms of environmental impact and represent a solution for sustainable development: it is, therefore, a great acknowledgment for the Sacco armchair which in 2019, for its 50th anniversary, evolved into Sacco Goes Green to fight the global changes by offering itself as a green icon of a sustainable model projected towards the future.

On Monday 18th of May the Awards ceremony of the important international award was virtually held on streaming FB before 10,000 live viewers, promoted and coordinated by Interior Design Magazine that selects the best projects and products which stand out in the main design categories. Now in its 5th edition, the award has received and valued 555 total entries from 24 countries worldwide.

Sacco Goes Green is identical in form and renewed in substance. The outer fabric is made with ECONYL®, a regenerated nylon thread, entirely obtained from fishing nets collected from the seabed, scraps of fabric and industrial plastic that are transformed into new yarn. Sacco Goes Green is an environmentally friendly product that activates a circular economy process and helps reducing the environmental impact.
