Founded in 1905, Hydro is a leading aluminium and renewable energy company committed to a sustainable future. Based in Oslo, Norway, Hydro employs more than 30.000 people worldwide across a broad range of market segments for aluminium, energy, metal recycling and renewables, offering a unique wealth of knowledge and competence.

To celebrate 90 years of the Aalto vase, Iittala and Hydro collaborates to present the Aalto 90 Pavilion at Ofelia Plads. Inspired by Alvar Aalto’s iconic design, the pavilion invites visitors to step inside and explore an immersive soundscape crafted for this occasion. The pavilion is formed in aluminium—chosen for its versatility, strength and infinite recyclability—made using 100% renewable energy. Selected as Iittala’s partner for its deep material and engineering expertise, the two companies seek to build upon their combined Nordic legacy of more than 260 years to support a more circular approach to temporary architecture.

Unwanted fibre becomes an UNWONTED experience. The brand makes alpaca duvets from fibres that would otherwise go unused. Across Poland, 47 small farmhouses produce fleece in quantities too small for industrial processing. UNWONTED collects, grades, and processes these volumes into duvets with GOTS–certified organic cotton shells, entirely free of synthetic components. Founded in 2025, the brand bridges Copenhagen design and Polish agriculture, where the founder's father and sister trained as professional shearers to supply the collection. Collection that is limited by the natural shearing cycle. Alpaca fibres accounts for 0.05% of world textile production and the experience of sleeping under it remains unfamiliar to most.

With experience and passion in working with solid wood, ZEITRAUM stands for a modern, reduced design language and sustainable approach. Founded in 1990, it was the first German furniture manufacturer to focus on combining ecology and design. Sustainability is not a trend but a fundamental corporate philosophy. Solid hardwoods from renewable sources are processed into furniture of lasting value by combining knowledge of materials with contemporary design. No chemical treatment of the wood is used. Due to solid wood's high reparability and their products' modular construction, the repair is easy and possible at any time. In cooperation with selected designers, ZEITRAUM develops high–quality furniture for living areas and contract sectors.
