The Tip Ton chair was an instant design classic upon its introduction in 2012, and with the Tip Ton RE, Vitra reintroduces the innovative seating solution with an improved sustainability footprint.The RE version of the Tip Ton chair is produced using 80% recycled polypropylene, ensuring that it is as easy on the planet as it is on the eye. The Tip Ton is innovative in other ways too, with the forward-tilt sitting position offering composure to the user’s seating position, improving circulation to the abdominal and back muscles, and straightening the pelvis and spine.
The bold, striking appearance makes the Tip Ton an effective dining table or home-office solution. The Tip Ton can be paired with the Soft Seat Cushion for further comfort.
