The Be Hybrid is at home in a variety of multi-user working environments. For example, at the office, in learning environments or meeting places, but also at home. A chair that has you sitting comfortably right away, and is easy to operate with just one button. You sit down, adjust the height and start working.
On top of that, the chair consists of 76% recycled content. Apart from the cross-foot and the gas spring, the chair is made entirely from waste! Good for you, good for the company and good for the planet.
The chair offers support in every seating position thanks to its patented mechanism, together with the flexibility of the frame material. The hinge points of the chair are located directly at the hinge points of the user, i.e. the knee joint and the hip and pelvic joints. As a result, the user’s weight is essentially converted automatically by the mechanism into the right counter pressure. This counter pressure guarantees immediate and pleasant support for everyone in the chair, in any sitting position.
The entire chair, including the base, contains 76% recycled content. Unfortunately, this is not yet 100% because a gas spring and wheels cannot be made from recycled material in a way that is economically responsible. Our long-term objective is a Be Hybrid made from 100% recycled materials.
Be by Bèta, our sister company, made an inspiring video about the sustainable nature of the Be Hybrid.
In the video, we tell you about the sustainable materials and the circular nature of the chair, which we are happy to take back after use.
Watch the video on the right.

Options
Be Hybrid is locally designed, developed and produced.
Local production: Vepa distinguishes itself by producing everything in its own, local facilities. Our own wood, sheet steel, tubular steel, powder coating, wood spray, upholstery and final assembly departments form a complete production circle within a single company. By producing close to the sales market we keep distances small and CO2 emissions minimal.
LCA: By using independent LCAs (life cycle analysis) we reveal the environmental impact of a product. In product development we can greatly improve later designs by carrying out an LCA in the initial phase. In addition, an LCA also provides insight into the main factors responsible for the environmental damage. We then use these factors as starting points for redesign or as focal points for improvement. The LCAs are carried out in accordance with ISO 14044.
FSC® and PEFC: Vepa only uses certified wood. The FSC® and PEFC labels stand for responsible and sustainable forest management. Responsible forest management meets three criteria: it takes account of the environment, respects social aspects (such as the rights of local communities and forest workers) and is economically viable. Moreover, wood is the number one bio-based resource by nature.
TPAC (Timber Procurement Assessment Committee): Timber to be supplied or timber processed in products to be supplied must comply with the Dutch Procurement Criteria for Timber according to the Socially Responsible Procurement criteria. FSC® and PEFC are both systems that have been approved by the Dutch state secretary.
SRP criteria: Vepa complies with the SRP criteria drawn up by the central government. The national criteria for socially responsible procurement (SRP) for office furniture are available via the SRP criteria tool (https://www.mvicriteria.nl/en/webtool).
