Crafted from Natural Materials
We use only natural materials—natural latex, organic cotton, wool, and rubberised hair—offering a superior alternative to synthetic foams. These materials provide exceptional comfort, breathability, and durability, ensuring your sofa lasts for years. Unlike petroleum-based foams, our natural materials are biodegradable and sustainably sourced, making them better for your home and the planet.
Free from Flame Retardants
Our sofas are completely free from flame retardant (FR) and stain-resistant (SR) chemicals, making them a safer choice for your home. Every element, from the frame to the cushions, is made using only natural materials. Natural latex is far more durable than synthetic foam, holding its shape and comfort for years. While it costs more, its longevity, support, and sustainability make it a worthwhile investment. We also offer FR- and SR-free fabrics, ensuring a fully natural sofa, inside and out.

Product description
The clean lines and minimalist design make this sofa a mid-century modern classic. Simple and understated, it remains unfathomably comfy, whether curling up against its high arms or sprawling across the supportive seat and deep soft cushions.
Frame
Hand-built frame made from solid kiln-dried beech wood and eco-ply, sustainably sourced from Forest Stewardship Council-certified European forests. The durable frame has been glued, screwed, doweled, and then strengthened with screws for stability and longevity.
Fabric
Our sofas and armchairs are hand-upholstered in over 70 premium fabrics, including our natural and eco-fabrics. Prefer to use your own? It's not a problem; email us at info@slowsofa.com, and we can discuss it.
Guarantee
All of the frames for our sofas and chairs come with a lifetime guarantee as standard.
Cushions
Our cushions are meticulously crafted using eco-friendly natural latex foam. The natural latex used is both recyclable and biodegradable, offering an environmentally conscious choice. It stands out for its durability, being mould, mildew, and dust mite resistant, and boasts a lifespan that's 20 times longer than standard foam cushions. Moving to the back cushions, we've continued our eco-conscious approach. These are filled with eco-fibre manufactured from repurposed PET plastic bottles that would otherwise contribute to landfills. This not only aids in reducing environmental impact but also provides you with a guilt-free luxury, knowing your comfort doesn't come at the planet's expense.
As part of our service, we'll make sure to give you a quick call once you've placed your order. We can confirm your requirements and discuss any concerns you may have around delivery.
Order a selection of free swatch samples to experience our fabrics at home. All of our materials are carefully sourced, producing the highest quality fabric with as little environmental impact as possible. Our natural fabrics are all biodegradable and manufactured without the use of chemicals or pesticides. Many of our man-made fabrics are produced from recycled materials diverted from landfill.
Our reupholstery service breathes new life into well-worn pieces. At any point, you can return your sofa to us and we’ll strip it, recycle your old material and reupholster in your new choice of fabric. We mean it when we say, a sofa is for life.
Your sofa or chair will be made to order in our workshops in the Yorkshire dales. We'll send you updates along the way as our team of makers bring your piece to life.
Delivery
Once your order is ready, we’ll contact you to schedule a delivery appointment. Delivery takes place Monday to Saturday, nationwide, and costs £150 per sofa or chair, with no hidden fees. Upon order, we can provide an accurate delivery timeframe. Delivery is automatically calculated at checkout based on the number of items in your order.
Hassle-free returns
We want our refunds policy to be as simple as possible. If you’re not happy with your sofa, for whatever reason, drop us a message within 14 days of receiving it and we’ll arrange for a courier to come and take it off your hands.

Review by David T. on 6 Jun 2023review stating Fume-free, perfect squidge
I received my new 3 seater last week and I'm over the moon; I ordered a 'Raines' sofa in one of their Performance Plush Velvet (which I tested at home, can confirm, bomb-proof!), it's so comfy and beautifully made, chuffed to bits.

I didn't know much about off-gassing before but after some light research, I'm happy to know the my new sofa isn't going to leaching nasties into my home - and it doesn't smell weird like most new furniture, looking at you IKEA.
Rare to find a UK made sofa that's not an arm and a leg - Highly recommended! Read LessRead less about I received my new 3 seater last week
