Founded in 1944 in Hanover, Pennsylvania, Emeco (Electrical Machine and Equipment Company) began with a singular, demanding commission: to create a lightweight, non-corrosive, and fire-resistant chair for the U.S. Navy. The result was the 1006 Navy Chair, an indestructible piece crafted from scrap aluminum through a rigorous 77-step process. This utilitarian masterpiece established Emeco’s enduring philosophy of building simple, timeless furniture designed to last at least 150 years.
