Catifa 53, designed in 2001 and Arper’s first product with an environmental product declaration, enters a new era through a partnership in material innovation setting a new standard for sustainable design. The new Catifa Carta maintains the high aesthetic of the original, proving that beauty, functionality and environmental responsibility can seamlessly coexist. Catifa Carta’s shell is crafted entirely from PaperShell, a groundbreaking material derived from paper which is the result of advanced scientific research, innovating a process that tackles the climate challenges practically. Comprising 29 sheets of paper bonded with a natural resin binder, Catifa Carta significantly reduces the chair’s environmental footprint by sequestering carbon dioxide. Paper used to produce PaperShell is sourced responsibly, utilizing residues from Swedish wood production such as sawdust, chips, and branches. Catifa Carta features a re-engineered shell made of PaperShell, a revolutionary new material made of composite wood by-product, which provides the strength and comfort essential to Catifa’s now iconic, bi-curved silhouette. At the end of its life cycle, the material can be reduced to biochar, successfully retaining the CO2 sequestered during the previous life phases. The shell of Catifa Carta is available in a coffee color and the base in three options: steel base 4 legs in black, steel sled base in black and rust, black aluminum trestle base with and without wheels. Cushions and removable cover options are available to add color and extra comfort.
