What about ” the i-condesk ” and sustainability?
What about it?
A classic is not a classic from the start. A classic is not created by adapting to established norms, on the contrary: a classic is created by questioning existing norms.
A classic becomes a classic because it stands the test of time: first it outlasts the older products and then the newer products that try to replace it.
Even though it dates from a bygone era, a classic remains contemporary and modern and is an icon without pretending to be one.
He possesses the qualities of a work of art, but never claims to be art. He always makes a fresh impression.
It was new when it was first presented and will remain new until another product breaks with tradition again and challenges established norms.
Likewise, the Icondesk will prove its qualities over time and demonstrate that sustainability starts with creating a timeless design,
must be made from the very best materials and crafted by the most skilled craftsmen.

The Icondesk is constructed from solid walnut or oak as a front and back panel and as a drawer.
The peel consists of Dupont’s corian. The legs are made of stainless steel and the frame is made of steel with a honeycomb cardboard filling.
Everything can be easily separated and reused when its lifespan comes to an end after many decades.
DuPont™Corian® surface material and Corian® adhesive are low in VOCs (volatile organic compounds) and have proven to be extremely safe to use for more than 40 years.
Corian® surface material consists of approximately 1/3 high-quality acrylic resins and 2/3 natural minerals and is manufactured in various production units around the world.
Once Corian® ingredients have fully reacted (polymerized) in the manufacturing process, a stable chemical material is obtained with minimal impact on indoor air quality.
