The new seating range by Ivars showcased at Interzum Cologne 2023
Ivars was present at the latest edition of Interzum with a large range of new seating products: over the last few years, the company’s designers have been focusing their efforts in particular on aspects of style and solutions to meet the seating needs of the modern market. As regards the series, one of the main news is without doubt the N.Time backrest, which is available in three versions: mesh, plastic at sight and upholstered with lumbar support, all versions feature the same fixed back bar. Its new dedicated seat is compatible with other Ivars chairs. A second major innovation was the College stool, developed to complete the family range. It’s produced in a version with a low shell and has proved to be a versatile chair, which is ideal for a vast assortment of uses, especially contract settings: the stool can be assembled on a wooden, plastic, or iron frame. Available with a wooden frame in two heights (65 and 75 cm), or swivel with nylon or chromed base.
College is a smart, eye-catching and modern seat: it can be finished in myriad colours and features a particular photo-engraved detail. Finally, it can be completely upholstered offering a more personalized product. In addition to these two notable products, Ivars also showcased the following at Interzum:
- Queen: a chair featuring a new plastic back bar which is not incorporated into the backrest – designed, developed and produced in Italy. Queen is available in two sizes (high and low) and numerous configurations, which include mesh or upholstered versions, and three types of back bar.
- Mini is a seat aimed at the mass market adjustable in height by means of a nylon back bar with rapid-closure system. Mini stands out for its minimal dimensions and home office design, and can be upholstered in a vast array of colours and patterns.
- The new Anchor seat: featuring a stylish design, this seat has been created for Directional use. It is available in high and low versions and comes with a fixed aluminium back bar. With its stylish aesthetic, Anchor makes the perfect choice to create a series with a highly distinctive and instantly recognizable look.
- Seventyfive: the series already available in mesh is extended with an additional plastic panel at sight which can be also upholstered.
In addition to the kits, Ivars also showcased at Interzum some highly interesting new components:
