Note:
Originally conceived as Kartell's first chair to be produced in bioplastic the design was released in recycled 'thermoplastic technopolymer.' As it is made from mixed plastics the chair cannot be recycled at end-of-life resulting in a low score for this attribute. Additionally, the chair is only available in one variant with 5 colour choices. The chair can be stacked six units high.
