R.U.M. Armrest – Fisherman's Green is an architecturally designed, sustainable armchair made from recycled ocean plastic and discarded fishing nets. Featuring elegantly integrated armrests and a sleek fixed frame, it is engineered for high-end corporate boardrooms, premium hospitality spaces, and professional B2B contract environments.
Using discarded fishing nets as a primary material for our furniture is eco-friendly, contributing directly to cleaner oceans. The majority of all fishing nets used in Wehlers design pieces are collected from Danish or Faroese waters and sorted meticulously by hand in Denmark to ensure structural integrity and correct technical usage of the material.
Use & Versatility - With its comfortable armrests and premium comfort, this R.U.M. model performs exceptionally well as a sustainable meeting room chair, an elegant conference chair, or a durable dining chair for public and private spaces. Whether it is specified for high-traffic contract furniture projects, commercial workspaces, or exclusive residential dining rooms, the R.U.M. Armrest is built to withstand heavy, long-term use while satisfying modern office seating demands.
Design - The iconic architectural expression of the chair was created by C.F. Møller Design, an integral part of C.F. Møller Architects—one of Scandinavia's oldest and largest architectural firms. Their and our vision is to improve the lives of people and the planet. C.F. Møller Design describes the creation of R.U.M. as a friendly, comfortable, and practical architectural chair, optimized beautifully for corporate offices, public spaces, and private homes.
Sustainability & B-Corp Certification - R.U.M. stands for Re-Used Materials. As a certified B-Corp, Wehlers anchors this product in a strict circular economy framework. The entire design process follows a circular thinking approach: only two primary materials are used in the production of the R.U.M. chair, ensuring that 100% of the components can be recycled continuously for new Wehlers furniture through our official Take-Back System.
