The RED exhibition is a stage made up of representative contemporary design pieces. Through the products on display, each one of the companies represent the values of good design, the design author, commitment to quality, durability and sustainability.

Red is the trademark that unites all the products displayed, a symbol of passion; reflected in the strength and dedication of all the companies that form RED for work on the values of quality, innovation and sustainability and the push for the Spanish brand beyond our borders using the strength that they print on the design of their products.

For the occasion, Actiu has manufactured an exclusive piece from its award winning Tnk 500 chair, designed by Alegre Industrial Studio, and winner of Red Dot in 2012, one of the most prestigious awards in industrial design. The chair, complying with the same requirements as others, was dressed in RED for this excellent event.
