Emeco
chairs began in 1944 with a collaboration between Emeco and ALCOA to
develop a seaworthy chair for military use. ALCOA's scientists and Navy
engineers consulted with Emeco to produce the Navy Chair in Emeco's
Hanover, PA workshops where all of their chair collections are still
made today. Built individually by a handful of craftsmen, 77
painstaking steps at a time. The look of the 20-06 Collection recalls
the design of the classic Navy Chair, the all-aluminum icon first made
for submarines in WWII, but updated for modern times with a sleek,
minimal structure. Of the collection, designer Lord Norman Foster
noted, I appreciate the anonymous character of the new chair ' it
meshes seamlessly with our vision for interior space." In addition to
its refined appearance, this set of the 20-06 Barstools and Round Table
is ultra-strong, passes BIFMA performance standards and is guaranteed
for life.

About Emeco
Emeco builds great chairs. Since 1944, Emeco has been focused on a single goal: combining the best materials with the highest skilled craftsman. Quality hasn't been an accident. It's about process and people. Emeco chairs have become universal within the design community. The Naval Chair and its descendants grace fashion spreads, hotels, restaurants, offices, television, and feature-length films. They have played an integral role in great spaces for over half a century.
Emeco (The Electric Machine and Equipment Co.) was founded in 1944 by Wilton C. Dinges. Emeco's manufacturing process is the result of a collaboration with ALCOA to develop a seaworthy chair for military use. ALCOA's scientists and Navy engineers consulted with Emeco to produce the chairs in the Hanover, PA workshops and they're still made there today. Emeco's founder, Wilton C. Dinges, was a master tool and die maker, with an engineering background. His engineering ability was complemented by an appreciation for sculpture, specifically Rodin. He portrayed these two passions in an advertising campaign which expressed his original vision ' the Emeco chair as a one piece sculptured masterwork. Today Emeco is led by CEO Gregg Buchbinder who sums up their vision as: design plus craftsmanship.
