KOMBO communication furniture

KOMBO is an innovative piece of communication furniture made from sustainable materials that can be used very flexibly thanks to its modularity.
It consists of two acoustically shielded seating modules and a central technology module that serves as a table and is equipped with IT and lighting technology. The three modules can be moved on castors and can be fixed if necessary. KOMBO only takes up a space of about four square meters.
It is possible to have small talks or to withdraw for concentrated work or to relax. Possible locations are offices, trade fairs, events, public spaces, schools, ...

There are two dimmable FLASHAAR NP-Line Radiant LED lights on the ceiling. One with a color temperature of 4000 K and one with 2700 Kelvin. This means that either daylight or warm light can be switched. Print products can be examined optimally and true to color in daylight - and converse comfortably in warm light.

KOMBO consists consistently of sustainably valuable material:

• Natural spruce panels
• Rubber rings made of EPDM, a synthetic rubber
• Wool felt from Röders, tested according to OEKO TEX Standard 100
• The foam consists of cold foam in which a large part of the conventional base material, petroleum, has been replaced by sunflower oil
• Upholstery fabric Main Line Flax. A flame retardant fabric made from sustainable sources.
