Break the Una Chair down to its material sheet and one number stands out: in the membrane version, aluminium makes up 78% of its 10.9 kg — plastic takes 11%, metal 3%, the rest 8%. Frame, cross elements, armrests, base and even the mechanism housing come from the same die-cast aluminium, a material ICF calls renowned for durability and resistance over time. A chair made almost of one material is a chair that ages evenly — and one whose components dismantle cleanly for repair or recycling, roughly 92% of it when separated correctly.
On that metal spine, the collection builds three executive families for Indian offices: Una Chair with a tensioned membrane in mesh, fabric or leather for meeting rooms and visitors, Una Executive with shaped cushions for long sittings, and Una Plus Executive with a flexing monocoque and synchronised mechanism for the cabin — plus Una Stool at counter height. Low or high back, widths of 51, 60 or 70 cm, six metal finishes. La Mercanti delivers the collection to India with samples first and quality checked at the source: Italian engineering, one material, decades of service.
