It’s critical therefore that products can be disassembled, so their materials can be reclaimed and components maintained. This is why we need designs that can be put together and taken apart, by everyone, without fancy tools or training. So we all have access to repair our things when they get worn out, or break them down to reuse the materials.

The Tension Chair, along with our bookcase design and growing range of ratchet strap furniture are our answer to the need for eco-design that the user can readily disassemble and reassemble. With no glues, hidden screws or need for tools, these contemporary eco-design furniture and products have a clear message on sustainability, fit in any modern living space and are ideal for serial movers and flexible living.
