Intuition

Dreaming and freeing the imagination; lines drawn in full creativity; shapes and materials that stimulate intuition; colours that kindle emotions.
That’s how a new product is born.

Technology

Three different kinds of polyurethane (PU) can be obtained by moulding: structural, or rigid, PU (can be co-moulded with metal inserts); integral PU (semi-rigid, with or without metal inserts); flexible PU (similar to foam rubber, used for upholstery). The covers and some supporting parts of the chairs and stools are made of structural and integral PU.
The upholstery, made with flexible PU and covered by imitation leather, is entirely seamless and with no sharp edges for maximum hygiene and easy cleaning. The injection machines used for moulding the PU are constantly monitored to make sure that process parameters and product specifications are strictly respected at all times.

Tecnodent employs advanced CAD systems to design its products and equipment. Four CAD workstations are dedicated to studying and developing 3D models. Product design and engineering is carried out in cooperation with the manufacturers of moulding machines and the suppliers of materials (especially polyurethane). A special division of the Engineering Department is specifically dedicated to the production of prototypes. Tecnodent is strongly committed to research, especially in new materials and technologies.

Production

Tecnodent’s quality system is at the basis of the chain of production, to ensure top quality and full conformity with the company’s stringent production requirements. In this value chain, suppliers and production staff work together to achieve the same goal: customer satisfaction.

Quality control

Every single product undergoes severe quality inspections during production and assembly, during acceptance testing and during packing (visual inspection). The conformity tests include mechanical operation tests, electronic tests, electric compatibility tests and aesthetic-visual inspections, especially on the paintwork and upholstery.

Respect for the environment

Tecnodent uses HCFC-free polyurethane, which means that no hydrofluorocarbons harmful for the atmosphere are used.
