The COBRA chair has got its obvious name due to the very distinctive and sweeping back conjuring up the raised head of the snake. The attentively listening head reflects the environments the chair often will be situated in. The organic and ergonomic formed back is the backbone of the chair – supporting the seated person. The extensively tested nylon moulded backbone, with its exiting, thin ergonomic form, is technologically outstanding.
The shape of the back, its gentle flexing movement, supports the lumbar very well and is the result of precise calculations and numerous ergonomic tests. The new and innovative back, moulded in one with the supporting structure creates an impression of simplicity and uniqueness.
The back is manufactured in a beautiful matt high quality Nylon, which combines well with numerous seats options - veneer, laminate, or upholstery with a protective rubber edge. The chair has no back as such but constantly reveals new exiting angles, when turned. The design of the base complements the chair and can be supplied either in the same glass reinforced nylon as used for the back or in polished aluminium. The chair is available with glides or castors.
The COBRA table is developed with a focus on the specific demands on tables used in the educational sector.
The table is available in a great number of sizes and forms, allowing for numerous combinations. Furthermore it is height adjustable. The adjustment system is innovative and easy to use, with an easy grip making it possible to rapidly raise each leg in intervals of 2 cm without the use of tools.
The COBRA chair is much more than just an elegant shaped chair. It is designed to offer excellent ergonomic support. The sculptured back supports the lumbar perfectly and the seat, having a 2 degree forward slope, offers optimal seating comfort.
The height adjustable range of the chair is from 41 to 57 cm. The characteristic base is available in polished aluminium or a special glass reinforced Nylon. The COBRA chairs can be delivered with glides or castors.
Clean lines, polished corners and solid edges create an elegant design for the new COBRA table. Its functional design is ideally suited to the specific demands for tables used in the educational sector. An innovative adjustment system provides adjusted for the tables from 72 to 86 cm without the use of tools. In addition, suspension brackets fitted under the table provides a location for the COBRA chair so facilitating easy cleaning.
