– HALFTIME –
Developed in collaboration with international firm
COBE, the Halftime Chair was designed to possess
the same robust and flexible properties as the
building it was made for. With a moulded veneer
seat and back riveted directly to the steel-tube frame,
Halftime is a resilient, stackable chair with a clear
expression that perfectly balances lightness, strength,
and functionality. Crafted by the desire to create
an extremely strong and durable chair that can last
generations and is versatile enough for a wide range
of contexts, Halftime is suitable for use in institutions,
factories, cafés, and boardrooms.

With a little care you can prolong the life
of your furniture. Follow the instructions for
the materials of your specific product to
make sure that it stays in the best shape
for as long as possible.
The information below is only intended as
a general guideline. For more information
on how to remove specific stains, please
enquire where you bought the furniture.
/Always remove stains quickly before
they can do any permanent damage to
the furniture.
/Avoid placing the furniture in direct
sunlight or near a strong heat source
to reduce changes. As wood is a
natural material, it will change in
colour and will patinate over time.
/When you move your furniture, make
sure you lift it rather than pulling or
pushing it to avoid damaging the floor,
legs and mountings.
/Avoid improper use such as sitting
on the back, tilting the seats on their
back legs, putting your feet on the
furniture or standing on it.
/Be careful not to scratch or damage
the surface with sharp objects.
/Avoid covering the surface partially,
for example with cushions or skins, as
colour variances may appear.
/Check the status of the gliders
frequently and if worn down, contact
your local retailer to buy replacements.
The durability of the gliders will
depend on the surface that the chair
is placed on.
/Take care not to scratch the chairs
against each other when stacking
them. Do not move or drag the chairs
around when stacked as the weight
will damage the legs.

– CARE GUIDE –
LACQUERED OR STAINED WOOD
Wipe with a clean cloth wrung in water or in
a solution of water and a neutral detergent.
Remove soap residue immediately using a
clean, dry cloth.
If the surface is scratched or appears matt,
use a care product suited especially for
lacquered or stained wood.
Avoid using detergents containing silicone,
as that would seal the stain in and make
subsequent repairs more difficult.
Avoid using scouring cream or scouring
pads, as they may scratch the surface.
POWDER COATED OR CHROMED STEEL
Wipe with a clean cloth wrung in water or in
a solution of water and a neutral detergent.
Remove soap residue immediately using a
clean, dry cloth.
Avoid using scouring cream or scouring
pads, as they may scratch the surface.
White spirit (mineral spirit) can be used
to carefully remove stains from chromed
surfaces.
