Title: curved GlassTimberFurniture - Investigation of durability

Description: The aim of the cGTF project is to develop unique, curved pieces of furniture. The aim of the project cGTF is to develop unique, curved furniture that meets the strict hygiene standards of the healthcare, catering and hotel sectors while retaining the aesthetics of wood-based materials. The process was developed in the ZIM project ZF4006511CM9 Glass-Timber-Furniture and has now been extended to curved surfaces. This makes it possible to realize sophisticated, organic shapes that were previously impossible to implement. A technology is used that uses flexible, thin glass to create the desired surface curvature.
