Samples of all materials are bound into a 15-volume set of reference books—each the size of a hardcover novel—that breaks with the industry tradition of three-ring binders with removable pages.

Books in the reference library are constructed using a proprietary process that welds the pages into a cover, thus enabling a closed-loop reclamation program consistent with Herman Miller’s sustainable goals.

A new website, Herman Miller Material Program, has been launched that features all 1,600+ materials. A custom algorithm displays all swatches in continually shifting color arrangement governed by multiple search criteria. The website was designed to replicate the real-life experience of browsing and designing with actual materials.
