Airborne: Preserving the Heritage of French Design

Since 1951, Airborne has embodied the excellence of French design. Famous for producing the legendary AA Butterfly chair, the brand has navigated the decades without aging. Combining steel structures with distinctive covers, Airborne furniture is an invitation to comfort and minimalism. From the iconic silhouette of the AA to the curves of the BB chairs and the functionality of the AO tables, each piece is a long-term investment.

However, for these historical pieces to maintain their elegance and stability, the maintenance of technical details, such as protective caps and glides, is essential.

Why replace the caps on your Airborne furniture?

Airborne furniture often relies on slender steel structures that exert significant pressure on the floor. Worn or missing caps can quickly become problematic. Replacing your protective parts allows you to:

Preserve the integrity of the steel: The caps prevent moisture from infiltrating the structure’s tubes, thus preventing corrosion.

Protect your flooring: Whether you have parquet, tile, or a wooden deck, the right glides prevent scratches and indentations.

Ensure optimal comfort: A perfectly stable AA chair offers a better seat and avoids unwanted sliding.

Enhance your design heritage: Using compatible parts respects the original aesthetic of this collectible furniture.

Solutions adapted to legendary Airborne models

Each of the brand’s ranges requires specific protection to ensure maximum durability. Our selection of compatible parts covers the essential references:

AA Butterfly Chairs: Robust caps to protect the feet of the iconic “X” structure.

BB Chairs: Glides adapted to the more compact structure of this “little brother” to the AA.

AO Tables: Discreet protections to stabilize your surfaces without altering the design.

Focus on outdoor use

The AA chair is an icon for terraces and gardens. However, temperature variations and UV rays can weaken the plastic of the original caps. Regular inspection and replacement with high-resistance caps are recommended to prevent the metal from coming into direct contact with damp or abrasive ground.
