R.U.M. Wheels – Keyboard Black ReWool is an executive-level, sustainable upholstered office task chair crafted from recycled E-waste plastic and premium wool textiles. Designed with smooth-rolling wheels and adjustable seat height, it is engineered for design-focused commercial workspaces, corporate offices, and B2B contract environments.
E-waste products consist of reused plastic materials from discarded electronic devices. With technological appliances being produced and consumed to a large extent—making it the fastest-growing waste stream in Europe—it is vital to reuse the considerable amount of E-waste that naturally arises from global consumption. All the E-waste material utilized in this specific Wehlers office chair is sourced from Austria and processed to meet commercial high-traffic standards.

Møller Design describes the creation of R.U.M. as a friendly, comfortable, and practical architectural chair, optimized heavily for public contract spaces, modern corporate offices, and private homes.
