String is a transparent, almost invisible webbed textile with exceptional strength and load-bearing capacity. The webbing’s strength allows String to be used in a self-supporting context in furniture backs. This can be as a single-layer transparent membrane, a multi-layer upholstery in combination with other textiles, or a technical load-bearing web which permits light full upholstering or cushion solutions.
- 100% recyclable polyester
Design and colours are developed by Inger Mosholt Nielsen
