Poly Wood is an environmentally friendly alternative to regular wood furniture. PolyWood is made mainly from recycled plastic milk cartons, and is used to make durable, attractive outdoor furniture. Invented in 1990 by Doug Rassi and Mark Phillabaum, PolyWood helps prevent countless trees from being cut down to build outdoor furniture in addition to keeping tons of plastic milk jugs from landfills and promoting green living. PolyWood recycled plastic furniture is produced by Poly~Wood, Inc.
