The Picto chair is a swivel chair created by Wilkhahn and designed by Burkhard Schmitz and Franz Biggel. It is made with polypropylene, aluminium, PUR-foam produced without CFCs, beech wood, and pigments that do not contain heavy metals.[1]
The chair can be disassembled, and up to 95% can be used for individual parts, reuse, or material recycling.[2] The design features of the chair that speed up the disassembly process are:[3]
Detachable cloth covers
Parts are mechanically joined without glue
Plastic parts weighing more than 15g are marked for identification
