Ara task chair
Great design is when there’s nothing left to take away. Ara is a chair of refined performance, comfort and support that redefines our perspective on sustainability. Ara is the first task chair developed and manufactured in Europe to achieve Cradle to Cradle accreditation. The character and performance are defined by the design of the chair’s adaptive elastomer membrane, the rigid outer frame supports the membrane with a posturally correct ‘S’ shape and its flexibility allows it to adjust automatically to the profile of your back. Ara’s synchronous mechanism delivers a smooth, balanced movement from impressively refined engineering, the elastomer membrane remains active even with a fully upholstered back due to the design of the foam’s internal structure.

Environmental
Cradle to Cradle is an approach to design which looks to make us truly environmentally effective, by developing products for closed loop systems in which all the materials used are safe and beneficial - either to biodegrade naturally or to be fully recycled into high quality materials for subsequent product generations time and time again. In order for us to maximise the value of the materials used in your chair we’d like to get them back once you’ve finished with them. Therefore Ara has been specifically designed with ease of disassembly as one of the guiding principles of it’s development.
