R.U.M. Sledge – Fisherman's Green is an architecturally designed, sustainable conference and dining chair featuring a sleek sledge/cantilever steel frame. Crafted from recycled ocean plastic and discarded fishing nets, this high-performance contract chair is engineered for modern meeting rooms, educational spaces, and high-traffic commercial 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 light, stackable design and high structural flexibility, the R.U.M. Sledge model performs exceptionally well as a sustainable conference chair, seminar seating, or a durable dining chair for corporate public areas. Built to withstand intensive long-term contract use, it satisfies modern commercial seating demands while keeping corporate carbon accounting at the forefront.
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.
