Renowned for their impressive client events, Wilkhahn did not disappoint this year with product launches across Australia. The launches showcased Wilkhahn’s next generation of dynamic-sitting products; IN and Stand-Up, as well as Ophelis docks; a modular soft-seating system.

Kicking off with a sizeable party in Sydney at their Asia Pacific HQ, the Wilkhahn launch circuit moved on to Aria restaurant in Brisbane, Vue de Monde in Melbourne and Electra in Adelaide, with a final party in Perth to be held next month.

A great way to thank the industry invitees for their ongoing support, the launches were well received and there was an overwhelmingly positive response to the new products.
