Orangebox - Ara Elastomer Back Swivel Task Chair

The award-winning Ara is the first task chair developed and manufactured in Europe to achieve Cradle-to-Cradle accreditation. Cradle-to-Cradle sets new standards of environmental accountability, offering an optimistic agenda on how we can manufacture products in a world where resources are increasingly scarce. Ara offers three back specification options: mesh, polymer and upholstered: Mesh delivers a soft touch and uses materials and assembly techniques that deliver a long and useful life, while facilitating effective recycling. The ergonomic refinement of the mesh comes from its ability to locally deform to the shape of your back, providing superb support over a large contact area. Polymer comes in a wide range of colours and has a contrasting upholstered seat. The fully upholstered option helps give this task chair family universal appeal, while retaining the Ara’s clarity of design and refined performance. And, as we are all different shapes and sizes, Ara also offers an enhanced height and depth-adjustable lumbar pad option, which can be fine-tuned to provide individualised lower back support.

Cradle to Cradle is a growing standard that creates manufactured product within closed loop systems where all materials are safe and beneficial. They either biodegrade naturally or can be fully recycled into new high quality products, again and again.

Ara has now expanded to nine design ranging from the original polymer back which has six colour combination choices, an upholstered seat and back -available in the fabric of your choice and the new ArIa mesh available as slate grey or black.  Ara is now available as a mesh solution, which is as simple and effective as the elastomer membrane. The specially developed soft touch mesh has also been designed using materials and assembly techniques which deliver a long and useful life while facilitating effective recycling.
