LinumTube is more than a series of strong and flexible furniture pieces: it is circular, ecologically sustainable, lightweight, and made from steel tubes and renewable flax textiles. All components can be easily disassembled, making material separation and reuse simple. A special multi-layered open-weave technique creates channel-like structures, allowing the textile to support the tubes. This reduces raw material use and minimizes waste.

Jonathan Radetz takes it a step further: the recycled yarns with which the studio weaves the fabrics are developed into new products, making the chain even more complete. LinumTube is a joint research project with Fraunhofer WKI in Germany.
