Craftsmanship

& cutting-edge technology

Traditional and innovative disciplines converge in the design and manufacturing of Pato.

At Fredericia, outstanding craftsmanship and cutting-edge technology both play a role in

the expression, tactility and longevity of each of our products.

Drawing on our heritage of working with wood, we have a highly

skilled team with expertise in carpentry and upholstery, driven by

their passion for materials and a keen eye for detail.

To meet the needs of international marketplace with different

requirements for the private, commercial, and hospitality sector,

we have incorporated technology that allows us to apply our

carpentry techniques to an array of materials in addition to wood.

The Pato with its original polypropylene shell is a shining example

of this fusion of technology and tradition. Three years of research

and development went into the Pato. The result is crafted details,

such as the bevelled edge and just the right amount of flexibility

in the back. Not to mention, a surface finish unseen in any other

such polypropylene product. All plastic surfaces have a durable,

silky smooth look and feel that doesn’t show signs of being

machine-made.

With Pato, Fredericia has succeeded in applying its high standards

of texture and finish with wooden products to products aimed at a

mass market. A versatile chair with an authentic appeal designed

to stand the test of time.
