A person sits in a chair. It happens millions of times a day, and few of us give it a second thought. Yet it's a connection Staach believes should be not only comfortable, but meaningful. Staach strives to create the finest modern handcrafted furniture using only sustainable methods and materials. Because Staach thinks good, functional design and environmentally responsible practices can make our world a better place to live in. And sit in.

For Staach, sustainability is a way of life. A process of continually finding more and better ways of existing within this world. As designers, manufacturers, and employers, Staach recognizes that their actions carry significant weight and pride themselves on being proactive, respected advocates for social and environmental causes and continually look for ways to improve their contributions.

Seth Eshelman started Staach in 2006 as a RIT student for an independent study project after a trip abroad to Denmark. It was another college project, this time by one of his college friends, that led Staach to formalize the sustainable ethos of its founding by pursuing a B-corp certification.
