The iconic seating collection Flow is completed with an original innovative environment-friendly version: FLOW ECO chair. The use of a new technopolymer material made up of miscellaneous wood fibres combined with original impressive aesthetics and special tactile experience call new attention to the environment and present an innovative version for the iconic Flow collection. The new finishes of the shells are made of non-fossil raw materials that are, especially, renewable: beechwood fibre for its light version and coconut fibre for its dark version. The use of raw material obtained from renewable sources is further underscored by the dark shade because it is obtained with organic material directly taken from the fruit of the plant and not from the plant’s structure, which can, therefore, continue its natural life cycle. The environment-friendly nature of FLOW ECO chair is confirmed by the use of fabrics containing wool and nettle for the small pads, and of oak treated with oil and water for the natural oak and brown finish of the base.
VERSION WITH BEECH AND COCONUT SHELL, WITH SMALL PAD
The shell in patented technopolymer produced by injection moulding is mass pigmented in the natural colours white and brown with micro-embossed internal and external surface finish.
This particular finish gives to the shell a remarkable matt effect, depth of colour and interpretation of the natural raw materials.
FLOW ECO chair is completed with a small pad with thermoformed padding and filling in quilted polyurethane and polyester wadding.
The small pads are only produced with dedicated removable fabric and additional covers are available.
