u.r is an environmentally considered table system that is flexible and versatile, and provides for a complete ‘family’ of table product options. The family of products allows the specifier continuity of design throughout any commercial environment.
u.r has been designed with the environment in mind.
Life Cycle Assessments (LCA) were commissioned to determine the most appropriate materials to achieve the desired finishes. Components produced from materials such as die cast aluminium have been designed using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to ensure the strongest structure whilst eliminating excess material.
The u.r table base has been designed for 100% disassembly, ready for recycling.
When our manufacturer commissioned the LCA they used this information to determine the amount of green house gases emitted from the manufacture of the table frame from cradle to grave ? including shipment to the end user.
The manufacturer offsets the carbon emissions through a certified carbon offsetting program registered under the Kyoto Protocol, making u.r a carbon neutral product.
