Helinox has been making lightweight packable camping furniture since 2012 and this year they have gone and reimagined their very first chair. The Chair One (re) is more comfortable, stable and, for the first time, integrates repurposed aluminium shavings from the manufacturing process.
The architecture of Chair One (re) advances the original design with new dual-tension technology, dubbed (re)Tension Design. This innovative approach adds a second tension line within the perimeter of the chair to distribute weight around the frame for enhanced comfort and stability. (re)Tension Design is also available in the new Chair One High-Back (re), which features additional shoulder and upper back support.
“With the new Chair One (re), sitting is believing. You can feel an immediate difference in comfort and stability, which achieves our goal of inviting people to spend more time together, outside, having fun. We’re also very proud to be using reclaimed aluminum from our factory, which further supports our efforts, using recycled materials and our proprietary green anodization process, among other initiatives, to reduce the environmental impact. The durability, comfort, and stability of Chair One (re) are second to none.”
