Moia chair with armrests Milano

From Moia S.p.A.'s thirty-year experience in the outdoor furniture sector, historically gained through the prestigious Greenwood brand, comes the Milano chair from the new "Moia - your home outdoor" collection. This chair perfectly embodies the brand's philosophy, focused on the fusion of class, functionality, and innovation to transform the outdoors into a trendy and well-being space. Born from the creativity of a team of international designers, the Milano chair stands out for its artful lines and premium construction materials. Featuring a lightweight aluminum frame and a tailored weave in colored Twist-Wicker, it offers a modern silhouette with a strong visual impact. Its ergonomic and welcoming line guarantees maximum versatility and absolute practicality, making it the ideal solution for both refined residential outdoor areas and intensive use in elite contract settings (lounge areas, bars, hotels, and restaurants).

Material Configuration and Design Identity

The Milano chair features a refined mix of materials and colors, carefully crafted to match any type of table, from solid wood to minimalist metal or stone structures.

• Reinforced Aluminum Frame: The supporting frame uses a solid 32 mm tubular steel that gives the chair geometric stability, while maintaining a lightweight and clean, contemporary silhouette.
• Ø 5 mm Twist-Wicker Weave: The seat and backrest are made of a 5 mm diameter woven synthetic yarn. This "twist" process creates a three-dimensional, textured texture that's pleasant to the touch, offering a handcrafted visual impact combined with the indestructible performance of modern polymers.

Material Details and Maintenance Guidelines

1. Structural Aluminum Frame (Ø 32 x 1.2 mm)

The extruded aluminum selected by Moia is chemically completely immune to rust and oxidation, making the chair resistant to rain, nighttime humidity, salt spray, and chlorine.
Use and Maintenance: Clean the metal frame with a soft cloth dampened with fresh water and a common pH-neutral liquid soap. Avoid using steel wool, abrasive sponges, or industrial acid degreasers, which could scratch the aluminum's surface finish.

2. Twist-Wicker Seat and Backrest

Twist-Wicker is a high-density synthetic polymer fiber extruded to resist mechanical stress, wear, and temperature changes. It features special sunscreens that prevent color fading caused by UV rays.
Use and Maintenance: The openwork weave does not retain water and dries quickly. To clean, simply use a soft-bristled brush with warm water and neutral soap, removing dust or food residue from the grooves, then rinse under running water. During the winter season, we recommend washing the chairs, stacking them, and protecting them with a breathable cover or storing them indoors.

Benefits and Design

• Enveloping and Welcoming Ergonomics: The Milano chair's international design molds the backrest and seat into a single, fluid shell free of sharp edges. The natural, lightweight flexibility of Twist-Wicker ergonomically follows the contours of the body, distributing weight evenly for extended comfort, even without cushions.
• Space-Saving Stackable Engineering: Despite its inviting proportions, the leg geometry has been designed to allow for fluid, solid, and safe vertical stacking of multiple units. This technical advantage allows the floor area to be cleared in just a few seconds, a key feature for the daily management of outdoor areas in commercial bars and restaurants.
• Contract Certified Robustness: The use of an aluminum tube withA 32 mm diameter and generous 1.2 mm thickness give the chair superior structural strength compared to other summer furniture, enabling it to withstand the stresses of continuous use, heavy loads, and frequent movement typical of the HO.RE.CA. sector.
• Protective Wear-Resistant Feet: The leg ends are equipped with protective pads made of high-density engineering plastic. These inserts prevent direct rubbing against the aluminum, dampen dragging noise, and protect even the most demanding floors (such as wooden decking or stoneware tiles) from scratches or scuffs.

FAQ

Is the Milano chair suitable for use at the seaside or poolside?
Absolutely. The chemical combination of the aluminum frame and the synthetic Twist-Wicker fiber is specifically designed for extreme outdoor use. The materials are in no way affected by the corrosive action of sea salt, salt spray, or the chlorine vapors typical of swimming pools, maintaining their mechanical stability and color intensity over time.

Is the 5 mm Twist-Wicker fiber likely to loosen or sag after repeated use?
No. The Twist-Wicker used by Moia is a high-tenacity technical polymer with elastic memory. The 5 mm cord is tensioned and firmly anchored to the aluminum frame using industrial fastening techniques. This ensures that the seat remains taut, toned, and performing even after years of prolonged daily use.

Is the chair delivered fully assembled or does it require assembly?
The Milano chair is delivered fully assembled and structured as a single piece directly from the factory. This ensures maximum structural strength of the joints, eliminates the presence of external screws or bolts that could loosen or rust, and allows the seats to be used and stacked immediately after being removed from their protective packaging.
