100% Solid Rubberwood Construction - Health-Conscious Quality You Can Trust
Our Nordic armchair features a complete solid rubberwood frame—from the structural supports to the armrests and legs—ensuring durability, stability, and most importantly, your family's health. Unlike upholstered chairs built on particle board or plywood frames that release formaldehyde for years, our solid wood construction contains no synthetic adhesives or toxic resins.
Critical health advantages for Singapore families:
With Singapore's National Environment Agency (NEA) implementing strict formaldehyde bans effective January 1, 2026 (violations carry up to S$50,000 fines or 2 years imprisonment), choosing formaldehyde-free furniture isn't just smart—it's essential. Our solid rubberwood construction naturally complies with Singapore's SS554:2016 indoor air quality standards (0.1 mg/m³ formaldehyde limit).
Why solid wood matters for your wellbeing:
- Zero formaldehyde adhesives - No urea-formaldehyde (UF) resins anywhere in construction
- No VOC off-gassing - Unlike particle board that releases volatile organic compounds for months.
- Naturally breathable material - Wood's cellular structure doesn't trap moisture as well as chemicals
- Safe for vulnerable populations - Ideal for homes with elderly residents, pregnant women, children, or asthma sufferers
- Better indoor air quality - Contributes to healthier home environment, especially in air-conditioned Singapore spaces
- Allergy-friendly - Reduces exposure to synthetic materials that trigger sensitivities
Particle board frames in upholstered furniture pose hidden health risks. The (IARC) classifies formaldehyde as a Group 1 carcinogen, linked to nasopharyngeal cancer, respiratory problems, and chronic health conditions. Our solid wood construction eliminates this risk entirely, giving you peace of mind with every use.
FSC-Certified Sustainable Rubberwood - Eco-Friendly Luxury at Accessible Prices
Every Nordic armchair is crafted from FSC-certified rubberwood (Hevea brasiliensis), harvested from rubber trees at the end of their 25-30 year latex-producing lifecycle. This represents genuine circular economy principles—transforming agricultural byproducts into beautiful, functional furniture instead of waste.
Sustainability credentials that matter:
- Renewable resource management - Trees replanted continuously to maintain rubber production
- Carbon sequestration champion - Each tree absorbs CO2 throughout its 25-30 year lifespan before furniture harvest
- Agricultural waste reduction - Prevents millions of trees from being burned or discarded annually
- FSC certification guarantee - Ensures responsible forest management, biodiversity protection, and fair worker treatment
- Lower production footprint - Manufacturing costs 30% less than traditional hardwood harvesting
- Supports rural economies - Benefits rubber plantation workers and communities across Southeast Asia
For Singapore's growing eco-conscious consumer segment—where 34% actively seek green products—rubberwood offers an exceptional value proposition.
You receive authentic solid wood furniture with legitimate environmental credentials at prices typically 40-60% below premium hardwoods like oak, walnut, or cherry, without compromising on quality or durability.
Global scale of sustainable rubberwood:
- 14 million hectares of rubber plantations worldwide
- 40 million people involved in the rubber supply chain
- Vietnam Rubber Group: 55,000+ hectares PEFC-certified
- Southeast Asia produces 85% of global natural rubber and rubberwood furniture
When you choose our FSC-certified rubberwood armchair, you're supporting verified sustainable forestry practices while enjoying premium solid wood furniture at accessible prices.
Five Sophisticated Color Options - Perfect for Any Singapore Interior
Our Nordic armchair is available in five carefully curated finishes, each designed to complement Singapore's most popular interior design trends from modern minimalist to warm Japandi aesthetics:
1. Natural Oak - Authentic Scandinavian Warmth
Our bestselling finish showcases rubberwood's inherent honey-toned beauty and subtle grain patterns. This classic Nordic design aligns perfectly with Singapore's overwhelming preference for Scandinavian design (67% of Scandinavian-style bedrooms feature similar warm neutral tones).
The natural oak finish pairs beautifully with the neutral beige linen-blend upholstery, creating an inviting, organic feel.
Ideal for: Japandi interiors, modern minimalist homes, spaces with white or cream walls, creating bright airy environments, pairing with light-toned furniture, maximizing natural light reflection.
2. Pure White - Clean Nordic Elegance
Crisp, clean white finish that embodies the essence of Scandinavian design philosophy—light, bright, and effortlessly sophisticated. This finish maximizes light reflection, making spaces feel larger and more open—a crucial consideration for Singapore's compact HDB flats (average 85-110 sqm). The white frame with cream cushions creates a fresh, coastal-inspired aesthetic.
Ideal for: Small spaces requiring visual expansion, coastal or beach-house themes, all-white Scandinavian interiors, nurseries and children's rooms, spaces with abundant natural light, modern feminine aesthetics.
3. Dusty Pink - Soft Contemporary Accent
A sophisticated dusty rose finish that adds warmth and personality without overwhelming your space.
This trending color reflects 2024-2025's "warm minimalism" movement. Hence, where muted terracotta, dusty pink, and soft earth tones replace stark white Nordic palettes. Moreover, perfect for creating an environemenw that feels warmth.
Ideal for: Nurseries and nursing areas, feminine bedroom accents, creating soft contrast in neutral spaces, Instagram-worthy interiors, complementing greige or warm white walls, reading nooks with cozy ambiance.
4. Powder Blue - Calming Coastal Vibes
A gentle, muted blue-gray that evokes tranquility and coastal serenity. This versatile shade works as either a statement piece or subtle accent, depending on your surrounding palette.
The powder blue finish aligns with biophilic design principles popular in Singapore, bringing calming nature-inspired colors indoors. In addition, this gives an extra warmth feeling.
Ideal for: Coastal-inspired interiors, creating calm study or reading spaces, pairing with white and natural wood tones, beach house aesthetics, nurseries and children's rooms, Mediterranean-influenced homes, spaces designed for relaxation.
5. Walnut Brown - Rich Timeless Sophistication
The deepest, most luxurious finish in our collection. This rich walnut tone adds gravitas and warmth to your space, creating a clear atmosphere.
Excellent for disguising minor wear in high-traffic areas while maintaining an elegant appearance. The darker wood beautifully contrasts with the light beige upholstery.
Ideal for: Traditional and transitional interiors, creating sophisticated reading corners, home offices requiring professional appearance, pairing with darker furniture collections, spaces with warm color palettes, complementing walnut or mahogany dining tables.
Design tip: Many customers purchase armchairs in complementary colors to create visual interest. Popular combinations include Natural Oak + White for bright Scandinavian spaces, or Walnut + Powder Blue for sophisticated eclectic interiors. Mix-and-match approaches add personality while maintaining design cohesion.
Compact Yet Comfortable Dimensions - Optimized for Singapore Living
Dimensions: 80cm (H) × 51cm (D) × 41cm (W)
Despite offering significantly more comfort than standard dining chairs, our Nordic armchair maintains a remarkably compact footprint perfectly suited to Singapore's space-constrained living environments.
Space optimization benefits:
Footprint efficiency: At just 41cm × 51cm (0.21 square meters), this armchair occupies minimal floor space while delivering maximum comfort. For comparison, a typical bulky recliner requires 0.8-1.2 sqm—nearly 5x more space.
HDB-friendly proportions: The average 4-room HDB flat (85-95 sqm) typically allocates 8-10 sqm for living areas. Our armchair's compact design allows you to add comfortable seating without overwhelming these spaces. A single armchair tucks neatly into corners, creating reading nooks or accent seating because it will not cause traffic flow.
Condominium adaptability: New Singapore condominiums average just 777 sq ft with shrinking room sizes. This armchair delivers lounge-quality comfort in a footprint that works even in compact 2-bedroom units where space is at an absolute premium.
Versatile placement: The modest width (41cm) allows placement in:
- Bedroom corners because it does not block the closet access
- Living room conversation arrangements since it provides more space
- Home office spaces alongside desks (minimum 60cm space maintained)
- Nursing corners in master bedrooms
- Reading nooks in studies or libraries
Height considerations: At 80cm total height, this armchair maintains human-scale proportions that don't visually overwhelm rooms with standard 2.6-2.8m ceiling heights common in Singapore homes. The armrest height (approximately 65cm from floor) provides comfortable support without feeling imposing.
Weight and portability: Weighing approximately 8-9kg, this solid wood armchair remains portable enough for one person to move between rooms, facilitating flexible furniture arrangements as your needs evolve.
Enhanced Comfort Features - Designed for Extended Use
What distinguishes this armchair from standard dining seating is the thoughtful integration of comfort-enhancing features that support hours of relaxation, work, or caregiving activities:
Integrated Solid Wood Armrests : Nordic Solid Wood Armchair with Adjustable Footrest
Functional benefits:
- Help getting up and down - Very important for older people, pregnant women, or anyone who has trouble moving
- Spreads out body weight - Takes pressure off your legs when you stand up from sitting
- Supports arms and shoulders - Eases strain when sitting for a long time, like when working at a desk or reading
- Helps you sit better - Helps new moms hold a comfortable position while feeding their baby
- Safety handle - Gives you something sturdy to hold onto, which helps prevent falls for older people
Design considerations: The armrests are crafted from the same solid rubberwood as the frame, ensuring strength and longevity.
The armrest height (approximately 23-25cm above seat) follows ergonomic standards for comfortable elbow positioning at 90-degree angles.
Premium Cushioned Upholstery :Nordic Solid Wood Armchair with Adjustable Footrest
Seat and backrest cushioning:
- High-density foam core - Maintains shape and support through years of daily use
- Progressive firmness - Firm enough for posture support, soft enough for comfort during 2-4 hour sessions
- Breathable linen-blend fabric - Natural fiber content allows air circulation, crucial for Singapore's humid climate
- Neutral beige coloring - Versatile tone complements all five wood finishes while hiding minor discoloration
- Removable cushion covers (check specific model) - Facilitates easy cleaning and maintenance
Comfort benefits: The soft cushion of the seat spreads your weight out evenly, so you don't get sore spots when sitting for a long time. The curved, padded backrest matches the natural shape of your spine, thusr supports your lower back without being as bulky as regular office chairs.
Climate considerations for Singapore: Unlike leather or faux-leather upholstery that becomes sticky in humidity, our breathable linen-blend fabric remains comfortable year-round in Singapore's tropical climate. The fabric allows moisture evaporation, preventing the unpleasant "sticking" sensation common with synthetic upholstery.
Adjustable Footrest Bar - Unique Comfort Innovation

Health and comfort benefits:

- Versatility - Adjust footrest position based on user height and sitting preference

- Armrests reduce shoulder tension during computer work and video calls
- Footrest promotes circulation during long sitting periods
- Professional appearance suitable for video conference backgrounds
- Portable between spaces - move from office to dining table as needs change

- Reading area for guests preferring quiet time

- Easily relocated when room converts back to storage or hobby space
The armchair's modest footprint and portability make it ideal for Singapore's multi-functional room requirements.
Superior Durability - A 25-30 Year Investment
Solid rubberwood construction lasts much longer than the particle board frames found in cheap furniture with c:ushion.
Solid Rubberwood Armchair:
- Lifespan: 25-30+ years with proper care
- Frame remains structurally sound for decades
- Can be reupholstered 2-3 times throughout lifespan, refreshing appearance
- Joints can be tightened or re-glued if needed
- Wood can be refinished if scratched or worn
- Withstands Singapore's humidity when properly maintained
- 30-year cost: Initial investment + reupholstering = Exceptional value
Particle Board Frame Armchair:
- Lifespan: 3-7 years in Singapore's humid climate
- Frame deteriorates from moisture absorption and stress
- Cannot be meaningfully repaired when structure fails
- Swelling and warping common in tropical environments
- Joints loosen permanently as particle board crumbles
- Not worth reupholstering when frame is compromised
- 30-year cost: 4-10 complete replacements = Much higher total investment
Cost-per-year analysis:
Even at a higher initial price point, solid wood delivers superior lifetime value. An $899 solid rubberwood armchair used for 30 years costs just $30/year, while a $299 particle board armchair replaced every 5 years costs $60/year—double the annual cost while it generates significant furniture waste.
Low-Maintenance Care for Singapore's Tropical Climate
Regular maintenance (weekly):
- Vacuum or brush cushions so as to remove dust and debris
- Wipe wood frame with soft, damp cloth to remove dust
- Check and tighten screws monthly to maintain structural integrity
- Rotate cushions periodically to ensure even wear patterns
Cleaning spills immediately:
- Blot liquids with clean, dry cloth (don't rub)
- Use mild soap solution for stubborn stains on cushions
- Test cleaning products on inconspicuous areas first
- Avoid harsh chemicals that might damage wood finish or fabric
Singapore-specific care:
- Maintain indoor humidity around 50-60% using dehumidifier if needed
- Keep away from direct air-con vents that create extreme temperature fluctuations
- Avoid prolonged direct sunlight which fades both wood and fabric
- Apply furniture polish to wood frame annually to protect finish
Long-term maintenance:
- Professional reupholstering every 8-12 years refreshes appearance (cushions and fabric)
- Wood refinishing every 15-20 years if desired (sanding and restaining)
- Joint tightening as needed to maintain stability
With proper care, your Nordic armchair will maintain its beauty and comfort for decades, eventually becoming a cherished family piece with memories of countless hours spent reading, nursing, working, and relaxing.
