We used to make things in this country, #315 Treco Furniture
Designed in the 1960s by Giovanni Maur, an Italian designer in Quebec for the company Treco, the moulded ABS furniture was as futuristic as the year 2000! 20 years after its namesake date, I can find very little online about the former Montreal company. Today the items command a good price when you can find them, I still do see the stacking chair appearing occasionally in antique stores....

IIrc, firefighters weren't a big fan of ABS furniture. Still, brings back good (for the most part) memories.
Hadn't considered that. I wonder how the "resin" outdoor furniture rates?
Canada's first injection-moulded ABS plastic furniture.
