lightweight, strong, easy-to-mold and eco-friendly – werner aisslinger’s hemp chair is the world’s first concept for a monobloc chair made of natural fibers.

supported by the chemical company BASF and designed in the tradition of stackable chairs – usually made out of plastic – this one is the sustainable cousin in the monobloc chairs family. the sheet material of the hemp chair allows the use of more than 70% natural fibers in combination with BASF’s water-based acrylic resin Acrodur. Unlike with classic reactive resins, this method releases no organic substances such as phenol or formaldehyde during the cross-linking process. The only by-product of the curing procedure is water.
let the family grow!
