HAG Futu

Elegant & intelligent.
With the HAG Futu office chair you get the best of two worlds, with its advanced inner design based on HAG’s new inBalance technology and with its pure, cohesive lines, the HAG Futu is more an item of furniture than an office chair. It is simple to use and equally well suited to large open-plan offices and small individual offices. While being fully functional, the HAG Futu is nonetheless free from protruding and dominating levers and handles that would spoil the visual impact. HAG Futu was presented with the Norwegian Design Council’s Award for Design Excellence in 2009. The award recognises achievements where design is used to create innovative products and solutions. Among other things, the jury said: “The innovativeness of HAG Futu lies in everything that has been removed. This isn’t a seating device but an item of furniture.” In addition to the Norwegian Design Council’s Award for Design Excellence, the HAG Futu has also received the Council’s Sustainability Design Award, the criteria for which include the development of a product or solution offering significant environmental characteristics from a lifecycle perspective.

Dynamic ergonomy
HAG Futu is the first chair to incorporate our inBalance technology. inBalance is a floating seat mechanism that ensures that you sit comfortably and in balance regardless of whether you are short and light or tall and heavy. The chair follows your every movement – whether you stretch back or lean forward over your desk. And best of all, you’re in control of the chair, not the other way around. Ever wondered what the best position to sit in is? It’s always the next one! An ergonomic chair is one that follows you naturally into your next seating position. It should heed the body’s movements, both small and large, and stay still when the body wants it to, just like HAG Futu does.

Environment
HAG Futu meets the most stringent environmental requirements, both in terms of production and the selection of materials. It is made using minimal resources and no environmentally harmful materials. Fully 97% of the chair can be recycled and nearly 50% of the chair’s components are made from already recycled materials. HAG Futu is GREENGUARD certified, ensuring that the chair emits no health-endangering gases. As with all HAG chairs, HAG Futu’s environmental profile has been documented in an Environmental Product Declaration (EDP) in accordance with ISO 14025. HAG is registered as an environmentally conscious enterprise within the EU Eco-Management and Audit Scheme (EMAS). We also employ environmental management systems in accordance with NS-ISO 14001. In addition to the Norwegian Design Council’s Award for Design Excellence, the HAG Futu has also received the Council’s Sustainability Design Award, the criteria for which include the development of a product or solution offering significant environmental characteristics from a lifecycle perspective.
