A breakthrough ultra-lightweight seat concept replaces traditional metal + foam assemblies with a fully load-bearing CFRP structure—redefining what “a seat” actually is.
Developed by partners like CSI Entwicklungstechnik, Alba Tooling & Engineering, and AMC, the seat was built in just 7 months and weighs only ~10 kg.

1. xFK in 3D filament winding → fibers placed exactly along load paths
2. Integrated design → structure + ergonomics in one system
3. Minimal joints → fewer parts, higher efficiency
Instead of replacing steel with carbon fiber, the entire architecture is rethought from the ground up.
Less material. Better performance. Smarter engineering.
