Polyurethane foam
Polyurethane can be found in almost all areas of our lives. For example, car seats, dashboards, shoe soles or skis are made from polyurethane. ZEITRAUM uses an HCFC- and CFC-free MDI polyurethane system as upholstery material. In contrast to TDI systems, MDI systems are not harmful to health during production. When it comes to the composition, the company attaches great importance to working with as few additives as possible.
The foams used for the models MORPH LOUNGE, ZENSO LOUNGE, NONOTO LOUNGE, FRIDAY, MORPH POUF and other upholstered furniture comply with the German fire protection standard and have been certified with various environmental certificates, such as the OEKO-TEX Standard 100. OEKO-TEX Standard 100 is a globally recognised, independent testing and certification system for textile raw materials, intermediate and end products at all stages of processing, as well as for accessory materials used. The test criteria and limit values refer to important legal regulations on banned AZO dyes, formaldehydes, nickel, etc. as well as the European chemicals regulation REACH and numerous other environmentally relevant substance classes.
Due to the negative ecological properties of polyurethane foam, we have been searching for alternatives with comparable properties for several years and are successively reducing our consumption of synthetic upholstery materials.
