Production Technology

All plastic parts are produced from recyclable thermoplastic materials. The strong foots are produced from aluminium profiles.The flameproof sheath that is elasticated on all sides can easily be fit on the board.The top board is made of 1mm aluminium sheet material.The plastic iron rest place is made of PA%30GF which gives extra strength and heat resistance.

Design Challenge

Two important aspects of the design that needed to be accomplished were for the product to stand firm on ground and also to be easily lifted up and down without much effort. This problem was resolved by developing a special mechanism enabling a soft elevation and lowering.For height setting, the aesthetic and functional latches present on both right and left side enables automatic lift off for the ironing board. In fact, this lift off can be enabled by pressing only one of the lifting latches

Project Duration

Has a background more then 10 years of research. The final concept project has started on June 2012 and finalized in December 2014. Will be on markets on the first quarter of 2015.

Operation Flow

With Airboard, it is possible to select optimum surface for different fabrics ensuring that an optimum outcome can be obtained within shortest time. With a single hand touch, Airboard can be removed from ground and can be adjusted at a height from 65 cm to 100 cm.It is equipped with an integrated plug , 2 meter long cord and automatic cordwinder. Strong aluminum profile footing and slip-proof base ensures Airboard to stand firm on ground.

Research

Airboard was developed as a result of several observations made at locations where ironing work is done professionally and continually, iron appliance and surface duo is conceptualized together to present a solution undertaking the tiresome ironing work.Delicate fabrics can never be ironed at home and taken to professionals for ironing. Airboard saves usersfrom the trouble of taking such fabric to dry cleaners over and over again each time and solves the ironing problem at home.

Inspiration

The question “why should there not be professional ironing boards at home as well?”, has designed the Airboard .It is not as simple as buying a very good iron to solve the “ironing problem”. It is also important on which surface the fabric to be ironed will be laid upon during ironing since what makes it easier to iron is not just the iron appliance itself but also the surface whereon the ironing will be made. Thus, the logic is quite straightforward: Correct surface, easy and successful ironing.
