The design of Lobay Chair is based on light and comfortable 3D knitted polyester backrest element being stretched over a knock-down steel tubular structure. 3D knitting is very eco-friendly due to low carbon emission and zero material waste. Lobay received the China Furniture Product Innovation Award in 2018. The chair is available in various colours.

Brocape is a design drive furniture company with a core technology asset of 3D knitted mesh cover. At moment, Brocape is working together with Jouni Leino Design Studio from Finland to develop the use of 3D knitted cover on furniture.
