Konstantin Grcic designed the cantilevered Myto chair to investigate the possibilities of Ultradur® High Speed plastic. The superstrong, 100% recyclable material was developed by chemical giant BASF and the Italian furniture manufacturer Plank. It is also energy efficient, because it can be injection moulded faster and at a lower temperature than other plastics. Ultradur plastic is white, but can be coloured very evenly with nanopigment particles.
