The interaction of innovative material and industrial processing inspired already the designer of the Bauhaus early this century. Following this tradition, sting is an aesthetic and finely bench which is almost industrial made of aluminium, stainless steel and Arabic gum.
Fascinating is mostly the way of producing since seat and backrest are made of an extruded aluminium-profile. In this extruding process which the designer developed together with engineers from the aluminium industry, the finished pieces are pressed out (like out of a tube). Thus, the connection between seat and backrest and frame are elegant “invincible”.
The seat shell consists of anodized aluminium, the frame is made of stainless steel (V4A, roundsteel, massive). Thus, mainly robust material has been chosen in order to ensure that the bench can be used in- and outside. As a full-metal bench, sting can well suited for fire sensitive areas.

The standard colour for sting is anodized (aluminium-silver). Also deliverable (extra charge) are the colours red, black, blue anodized as well as an alternative with armrests. The frame is always stainless steel coloured.

The speciality of Sting is the stackability. Up to 50 chairs can be stacked – no matter if they are cushioned or if they have armrests. The stacked chairs will not be placed on the seat of the chair below but only on its skid.

In a conference room, in the cafeteria or at home, Sting is almost everywhere a practical and aesthetical solution.
