Trade terms for professionals and design studios
Pedrali keeps an index at the front of its price list that lists, model by model, what is homologated for reaction to fire. Against Ester it does not name codes: it says any model. Every version of the family — the chairs at the table, the swivel, the stool, the lounge chair, the pouf — is classified 1 IM. When a fire consultant is involved this matters less as a logo than as a procedure, and Pedrali writes that one too: the declaration of conformity is issued on written request made at the time of the order, and it covers that supply. Ask for it later and it is a different conversation.
The chair underneath the certificate is quiet. A steel inner frame carries elastic belts; flexible polyurethane, 60 kg/m³, is moulded over it and covered in fabric; the legs are die-cast aluminium in four metal finishes. At the table you use the 690 armchair, 66.5 cm wide with the seat at 46.5 cm, or the 691 side chair at 48 cm. The same shell also comes on a gas-lift swivel base with castors for a cabin, on tapered steel at counter height, and on a low frame in the visitor area. La Mercanti collects the declarations with the technical sheets so the file is complete before the handover, not after it. Pedrali also declares the recycled share version by version — 45.1% on the armchair, 50.5% on the side chair, 71.4% on the stool — so a specification that asks for material data gets an answer per line, not per collection.

Five checks to run on the pallets the day Ester arrives, before the cartons leave the loading bay.
