Story
The armrest version in PaperShell
Model 4113 appears on its fact sheet as Pato Paper Sledge Armchair by Welling / Ludvik, 2025: a stackable armchair with a shell in PaperShell, moulded in Sweden, and integrated armrests that Fredericia says add comfort.
What happens to the shell after use
The product page describes the material cycle: the shell can be processed by pyrolysis into biochar, which returns to the soil, and the page says PaperShell currently supplies biochar to plant nurseries.
