KRALL+ROTH X @oturadesign X @deberenn : TENSIL
Another reveal at #orgatec was TENSIL, a soft lounge chair with footrest, designed by circular design expert Rianne Koens.
TENSIL:
ten•sile - lengthwise - strength focuses on two main statements in
sustainable furniture industry: rethink softly X Foamless soft seating.
Because
of the self-supporting property of the used SHRINX material, which has a
high tensile, this chair design combines foamless soft seating with
rethinked design concepts - FOAMLESS, generous in comfort, reduced in
material use and climate impact.
FOAMLESS is realised through a combination of intelligent weaving technology and innovative yarns. Added to this is a simple but intelligent connection of the self-supporting fabric to the frame. Due to the shrinking properties of the fabric, contours & radii can be created that guarantee comfort.
FOAMLESS requires few components. Thus, the use of
materials is kept to a minimum, which leads to a reduction in resource
consumption and emissions.
FOAMLESS stands for longevity: In the beginning, there is a durable design with the selection of materials. These should be durable and reusable. The simple exchange of components enables an extension of the product life cycle. Reuse in a second market is possible.
FOAMLESS is designed in such a way that disassembly is quick and the materials used can be separated, collected and recycled according to type.
FOAMLESS stands for efficiency in transport: FOAMLESS is manufactured in Europe. Due to the reduced weight, larger quantities can be transported at once, which increases efficiency in transport and logistics, saves costs and contributes to climate protection. Delivery and ordering processes are simplified, there will be less room for errors or delays.
Assembly made easy: The simple upholstery enables assembly directly on site. The furniture can be assembled independently by anyone, no skilled workers are required.
