EcoSeat - The Worlds First 100% Recyclable Rail Seat without Polyurethane Foam

铁路座椅因不舒服而受到批评，即使是短途旅行也是如此。内饰设计旨在减少座椅轮廓，但往往以牺牲舒适性为代价，因为用于缓冲的泡沫需要减少深度，并添加硬化剂以提高其安全性。泡沫是石油衍生的，在其生命周期中会释放毒素。该项目旨在消除其在铁路座椅中的使用，同时改善其性能特征。EcoSeat将使用低高度的口袋弹簧组合，以满足铁路上的负载情况，提供更舒适的座椅，以具有成本效益的价格超过目前的标准。该项目利用量子座椅的设计和铁路经验来证明耐用的座椅，其排放量不到现有材料的一半，第二生命材料来自其100%的可回收性。

Rail seats have been criticised for being uncomfortable, even over short journeys. Interior design looks to reduce seat profiles but often at the expense of comfort, as the foams used for cushioning need to be reduced in depth, with hardening agents to improve their safety compliance. Foam is petroleum-derived and emits toxins during its lifecycle. This project seeks to eradicate its use in rail seating whilst improving on its performance characteristics.EcoSeat will use combinations of low height pocket springs, designed to meet the load cases experienced in rail, to provide a more comfortable seat, that exceeds current standards at a cost-effective price point. The project utilises Quantum Seating's design and rail experience in proving durable seats with less than half the emissions of current materials, with second life materials coming from its 100% recyclability.
