Introducing Hale PET Felt Lounge Chair
The latest addition to the Hale series, Hale Lounge Chair references the family look with its refined expression and no-nonsense functionality. Following the best traditions of lounge seating design, the chair grants extensive comfort without compromising its elegant appearance. Slender yet durable, Hale Lounge Chair will take little space to create an inviting setting for rest or leisure.
A new perspective on a classic design
Hale PET Felt Lounge Chair redefines the archetypical lounge chair through smart processes and innovative materials. Unlike classic wooden designs, the seat and backrest of the Hale Lounge Chair are made from PET Felt, recycled plastic bottles. With its soft texture, PET Felt grants the chair its pleasant tactility and cosy appearance.
“The extensive flexibility of this material allowed us to experiment with the curves in order to find an optimal ergonomic spine, essential for lounge chairs. As a result, Hale is fitted to embrace the users granting them long-lasting seating comfort.”
The use of PET Felt on the seat and backrest allowed bringing many traditional manufacturing steps down to a single 3D moulding action. In combination with a stackable steel frame, these few components result in a product, that’s beautiful in its simplicity. The chair is considerably more efficient in production and, consequently, very affordable. It can also be easily disassembled and recycled after a long lifespan.
Setting to relax and to socialise
Thanks to its slender design, Hale PET Felt Lounge Chair won’t take much space to seamlessly fit into any interior. Whether placed in a corner, hallway or a large open-plan lobby, it will serve equally well, inviting users to sit back and relax.
Hale is not a loner and can be used in various combinations. Put several chairs together to create informal social settings in offices and public spaces. No matter how long the conversations last, the seating experience will remain just as good.
Make it your own
The chair inherited the ultimate customisability of the Hale series, allowing to tailor it to the needs of any interior. It comes in 11 PET Felt blends with any custom RAL colour on the frame and a vast selection of fabrics for those preferring an upholstered seat. Whatever the design choice, Hale Lounge Chair will remain relevant and serve users for years to come.
