contract 2014

Fondata nel 1949 grazie ad un’intuizione che ne avrebbe decretato il futuro successo, Kartell è oggi una delle principali aziende del design internazionale, indiscusso pioniere nell’utilizzo delle materie plastiche nel settore dell’arredamento. Ambasciatrice di un design democratico che ha rivoluzionato il tradizionale concetto di arredo, Kartell ha reso la plastica un materiale duttile, eclettico, in grado di assecondare spinte fortemente moderniste e allo stesso tempo dare nuova vita alla tradizione.La continua evoluzione nella ricerca dei materiali plastici e la sperimentazione di nuove tecnologie hanno consentito a Kartell di sviluppare prodotti con proprietà funzionali ottimali quali resistenza ad agenti atmosferici e a shock termici, comfort, leggerezza, mobilità e fl essibilità di utilizzo. L’approccio industriale consente inoltre di realizzare grandi numeri e andare incontro ad esigenze diversifi cate, in tempi brevi sia nella produzione che nella logistica.Ciò ha permesso all’azienda di rafforzare la propria presenza negli ambiti più diversi:

Hotellerie (hotel, ristoranti, residence di lusso) Retail (fl agship stores, concept store, boutique esclusive) Special Projects (musei, aeroporti, palazzi storici, campus universitari, sedi governative) Seating (auditorium, teatri, cinema, lounge, sale conferenza) Offi ce (uffi ci pubblici e privati)

Dalle micro-forniture alle grandi commesse, Kartell può contare su un prodotto resistente, leggero e fl essibile, completamente Made in Italy e fi rmato dai più noti designer internazionali.

Founded in 1949 through the inspiration that ensured its future success, Kartell today is one of the leading international design companies, the uncontested pioneer in the use of plastics for the furnishings sector.Ambassador of democratic design which has revolutionised the traditional concept of furnishings, Kartell has made plastic a pliable and eclectic material capable of supporting the strong modernist thrust while at the same time igniting a new spark in tradition.The continuing evolution of research on plastics and experimentation with new technologies have enabled Kartell to develop products with ideal functional properties such as resistance to atmospheric pollutants and thermal shock, comfort, lightness and fl exibility of use. The industrial approach furthermore makes mass production possible and the diversifi ed requirements of both production and logistics can be rapidly satisfi ed.This issue has enabled the company to strengthen its presence in the most varied of contexts:

The hotel business (hotels, restaurants and luxury residences) Retail (fl agship stores, concept stores and exclusive boutiques) Special Projects (museums, airports, historic buildings, university campuses and government buildings) Seating (auditoriums, theatres, cinemas, lounges and conference rooms) Offi ce (public and private offi ces)

From micro supplies to large orders, Kartell can rely on its sturdy, light and fl exible product, completely Made in Italy and signed by the most famous international designers.

ONE MORE, ONE MORE PLEASEdesign Philippe Starck

If you want to sip a drink at the bar in peace and quiet, you need a comfortable tall stool with a back to lean against. Sometimes one drink is not enough - and you need "One more" and sometimes "One more please". The "Ghost" family, one of the absolute Kartell icons, multiplies its ranks with stools of different heights - 65 cm or 75 cm - and with backs, either oval or square, but always versatile, practical, coloured and sturdy.

Kartell presents the latest evolution in transparency, Hi-Cut, a chair offering perfect ergonomical seating combining fl exibility and solidity, while the changing vertical stripes on the top’s structure add an attractive play of light and refl ections.With its minimal and clean design, this chair is reminiscent of an art deco mood made eclectic and precious, bringing a touch of personality and originality to any ambiance. Available in many combinations, Hi-Cut comes in three versions - transparent, black and white - which can be combined with a range of colours for the top, whether bright (purple, red, green and orange) or soft (crystal and smoke grey).The design of the chair’s structure, made in a single mould, plays on curves and angles: the front legs are square, as is the front part of the chair, while the back legs and the backrest have a smoother, rounded line which becomes sharper at the top of the backrest.

TORRE COCCARO, BRINDISI/ITALY – Chair COMBACK Design Patricia Urquiola

Kartell has fun revisiting a great classic and gives a new look to the Windsor chair A return to the glorious past of England in the XVIII century for a "Comb Back" version of the chair with an opaque texture featuring a backrest consisting of seven "teeth" which spread out towards the lumbar region where they meet a reinforced hexagonal rim with slim shafts radiating down to join the seat. A goodly size, this single mould chair

embodies functionality and ergonomics well-freighted with sentiment and memories. The use of plastic and the use of pastel colours on offer give a touch of lightness and the contemporary to the Comback chair. The Comback comes in several modernised versions – the “swivel” model with four spokes and a central swivel shaft and the “sled” with two slim tubular sides.

NURSERY, PADERNO DUGNANO/ITALY – Lamp FL/Y Design Ferruccio Laviani

An essential lamp which is characterised by the “subtle interpretations of the theme". Made in transparent methacrylate in all the colours of the rainbow, the cover is not perfectly hemispherical but the cut-off is underneath the height of the diameter to collect the most light. What’s more, the special transparency of the material and the sheen of the colours bring to mind a soap bubble, iridescent with refl ections of light. They are packaged singly, but also come in compositions that enhance their delicate chromatic variations.

A comfortable armchair in transparent and coloured polycarbonate in the Louis XV style, it is the quintessence of baroque revisited to dazzle, excite and captivate. Louis Ghost is the most daring example in the world of injected polycarbonate in a single mould. Despite its evanescent and crystalline appearance, Louis Ghost is stable and durable, shock and weather resistant and can also be stacked six high.This article has great charm and considerable visual appeal and brings a touch of elegance and irony to any style of home or public area.

LA TRIENNALE, MILANO/ITALY – Chair MAUI Design Vico Magistretti

Its elegant lines, sober colours and practical

usage make Maui an extremely versatile chair,

capable of satisfying the widest demands of the

business and residential market. Maui chairs form

a family rich in chromatic and formal variations,

able to meet specifi c needs in communal areas,

such as offi ces, workshops, waiting rooms, bars

and restaurants, lecture and meeting halls, or in

home environments, such as the dining room, the

children' bedrooms and the study. The unitised

polypropylene seat/back is attached to a chromed

steel structure.

In 2012 Kartell gave Maui new appeal style and

price-wise and brought it back in a fabric-covered

version (Kvadrat and Trevira) – with and without

casters and arms thus increasing its rich family of

colours and functions, able to satisfy the specifi c

needs in the contract sector as well as in the

home. Its elegant lines and practicality make the

Maui chair an extremely versatile

design, just as contemporary today as yesterday.

Once again, Starck’s creative genius and Kartell's

technology bring to life a revolutionary and

fascinating design: La Bohème, a collection of

stools in precious vase shapes. There are two

designs: La Bohème 2 and La Bohème 3. Each

design highlights a different aspect of the vase as

an object, in terms of the delicate and precious

appearance and the stable and functional seat.

Only exclusive technology, used for the fi rst time

in the design sector by Kartell, could allow the

creation of a completely transparent collection of

stools whose shape has a remarkable aesthetic

impact. La Bohème stools suit any place, in the

living room and in the garden, on the balcony and

in the kitchen. In addition to the stools, vases are

also available in several colours. The elegance of

the design, colours and material sets these vases

apart, making them ideal for creative and original

decoration and to personalise any setting.

MASTERS

design Philippe Starck with Eugeni Quitllet

The Masters chair is a powerful tribute to the

three chair-symbol, re-read and re-interpreted

by the creative genius of Starck. The “Series 7”

by Arne Jacobsen, the “Tulip Armchair” by Eero

Saarinen and the “Eiffel Chair” by Charles Eames

interweave their unmistakable silhouettes into a

sinuous hybrid giving life to a fusion of original

and engaging styles.

On its four slim legs, the Masters chair is roomy

and comfy. The back of the chair is naturally its

most distinctive feature characterised by the

fullnesses and empty spaces created by the cur-

vaceous criss-crossing lines of three different

backs which descend to meet together at the

seat edge. The Masters is light, practical, comes

in various colours and can be stacked and used

outdoors as well.

The Masters chair was honoured with the prestig-

ious “2010 Good Design Award” presented by the

Chicago Athenaeum - Museum of Architecture

and Design and Red Dot Award 2013.

Kartell also offers a stool version of the Masters

chair. The legs are lengthened and the seat shrunk,

but the frame’s unmistakable graphic look, creat-

ed by the weave of the silhouettes of three iconic

chairs, remains the same. Available in a range of

vibrant colours, Masters Stool is ideal for both the

home and contract sales, as well as outdoor use.

CERTIFICATIONS Leader in the industrial production and distribution of plastic accessories and design items,

Kartell has always focussed on, and been dedicated to, research in avant-garde technologies

and production processes. Quality, reliability, safety and respect for the environment have

always been the company’s key values.

From its creation in 1949 to today, Kartell has designed an incredible series of products, the

fruit of creativity and of partnerships with the world’s greatest designers.

The products are made using top-quality plastics, most of which are recyclable and environ-

mentally friendly; the production processes are optimized to avoid excessive consumption

and waste that harmful to the environment and resources.

In 1996, Kartell received UNI EN ISO 9001 certifi cation for its Corporate Quality Management

System. In 2012, Kartell was also awarded UNI EN ISO 14001 certifi cation for its effi cient

Corporate Management System.

These certifi cations are proof that Kartell applies a careful control system that assesses and

verifi es the appropriateness of its technology, industrialization, quality and environment, in or-

der to reconcile is industrial processes with the needs and expectations of the end consumer.

And, refl ecting its concern for protecting the health of the end consumer, Kartell is set to re-

ceive Greenguard certifi cation for its collections in 2014.

Greenguard was created in the United States in 2001 to develop a series of technical require-

ments to certify materials for indoor use.

This certifi cation attests to the quality of the air breathed in closed spaces furnished with

Kartell products.

The parameters used are very strict, requiring that the furniture used and the certifi cates

respect very specifi c emission limits in order to protect consumers’ health, with particular

regard to children.

By buying a Greenguard certifi ed item, customers can be sure they are purchasing an in-

spected and safe product that does not pollute.

Greenguard is required by many certifi cation boards for green buildings (LEED; CHPS;

ASHRAE; Green Globes, NAHB; IgCC, CONSIP) worldwide.

Kartell’s concern for the environment is refl ected in its use of top-quality plastics that are cle-

an, certifi ed, environmentally friendly and mostly recyclable, along with packaging solutions

that avoid waste. We take great care to guarantee recyclability throughout our production

cycle, right from the earliest design stages.

Recyclability is one of the strong points of Kartell’s products: at the end of their life, all of

Kartell’s products plastic components can be recycled again and again.

But is there an “end of life” for a Kartell product?

CARE To care for your Kartell products, protecting their original characteristics, you just need to

keep a few simple things in mind.

When cleaning plastic surfaces, use a damp, soft cloth with neutral liquid soap or cleanser,

preferably diluted.

Do not use ethyl alcohol or cleansers containing even the slightest amount of acetone, tri-

chlorethylene, ammonia or solvents as these substances will permanently damage the plastic.

In addition to the corrosive substances listed above, avoid abrasive substances, including

powdered cleansers, abrasive creams and cleaning tools with coarse surfaces, such as steel

wool or rough sponges.

PACKAGINGAll of the product’s packaging—cardboard, plastic wrap, paper—is 100% recyclable, based

on generally applied criteria at the local level (recycling bins or recycling centres).

This is the best way you can contribute to environmental sustainability: avoid waste and avoid

“littering” the environment with excessive waste.

QUALITY CONTROLKartell uses various control systems in its production.

The red “QUALITY CONTROL” label found inside each box is your guarantee that the product

was checked by a Quality Control inspector before being packaged.

The codes on the control label are used to trace essential data in the event there is a problem

with the product.
