Features

The seat and back sub assembly attaches to an extruded aluminium beam with only two fixings making it possible for Flite to be assembled in minutes by a single operator. Integrated features such as the power arm can be combined with a range of finishes to configure Flite to suit all specifications.

Low Back

Available in moulded polyurethane, coach hide leather and soft upholstery.
Seat and back panels are identical minimising spare parts and allowing panels to be swapped to extend time in service.

Moulded Polyurethane

Comfortable and durable, self-healing polyurethane is available in any RAL colour. Suitable for interior or exterior use.

Saddle-Stitched Coach Hide

Hand stitched in Italy, coach hide leather is a luxurious and highly durable finish providing a practical specification for prestigious projects.

POWER OPTIONS

OMK power units feature two regional power sockets and two intelligent fast charge USB ports to power the latest generation of mobile technology.

Power Arm

The integrated power arm can be placed at any position along the beam replacing a regular arm rest. Includes 2 power sockets, available in any international standard, and two fast charge USB sockets.

Removable modules are mounted inside a custom extruded aluminium housing, making it easy to upgrade to the latest technology or replace in event of damage.

On Table Power

A standalone power unit is mounted on top of the table, cabling passes through the table and into the beam. Available on both full and half tables.

Seats can be positioned along the beam as a continuous bench of any length, with or without intermediary arms. Optional tables can be positioned on the end of the beam or in between individual seats.

Flite Hub

As an alternative to traditional linear arrangements Hubs create dynamic layouts, providing a 360 degree view of the environment and creating social spaces for groups. Hubs can be used individually or linked to form an articulated seating unit.
