The new Tipper table structure perfectly embodies the unique strengths of the design approach adopted by the Alba R&D Department. We asked them to tell us how the idea for Tipper came about:
"The inspiration for the Tipper table structure came about during a trade fair. As a result of a careful analysis of the range of offers on the market, we realized that despite the multiplicity of proposals, none had real added value. We, on the other hand, wanted to find a solution that was both effective and distinctive.
So we asked ourselves which element was capable of enriching the functionality of all the tables and we realized that the pivoting closure movement of the foot could represent real added value, because it guaranteed such effective horizontal nesting of tables.
We also immediately realised it had to be a benefit that could be offered to the market at an affordable price, and this represented the real challenge."
The resulting in-depth research carried out yielded the design and construction of the ingenious structure for Tipper tables, which not only boasts perfect nesting thanks to the pivoting movement of the foot during closure but also the lock-unlock handles placed on both sides that ensure maximum manoeuvrability. The table top can be tilted up with ease, thus providing a distinctive and highly functional advantage for any Conference and Training environment for which it was created.
It should also be highlighted that the structure for Tipper tables is available with three beam lengths (1,200 - 1,500- 1,800 mm), thus guaranteeing it can be adapted to any top on the market, offering a further advantage in terms of versatility.
