Helinox to Launch "Chair Zero LT" at 494g and "Table Zero LT" at 237g, Both Utilizing New GhostGrid™ Material for a Combined Weight Under 750g

Helinox Japan is planning to launch the "Chair Zero LT" and "Table Zero LT" backpacking chairs and tables.

・Chair Zero LT – The Lightest Chair Ever, Breaking the 500g Barrier

The Chair Zero LT weighs 494g, making it the first backpacking chair from Helinox to weigh under 500g. This weight is less than a 500ml plastic bottle, significantly reducing the burden when carrying it. The new GhostGrid™ material has been adopted. Many conventional outdoor materials require chemical coatings to ensure durability, weather resistance, and strength. However, GhostGrid™ achieves high strength and abrasion resistance without any coating, thanks to its high-strength monofilament ripstop structure. Eliminating the coating process not only reduces weight but also directly contributes to reducing environmental impact. The frame uses DAC TH72M, the highest standard 7000 series aluminum alloy used by Helinox. The green anodizing process uses recycled aluminum alloy, eliminating the chemicals traditionally used in the metal polishing process. With the newly designed X-Strap stabilizer, high ground contact is ensured even on sandy, dirt, or soft ground, preventing sinking and wobbling. When stored, it becomes as compact as a plastic bottle, minimizing the space it occupies in a backpack.

・Table Zero LT – 62% Lighter Than Previous Model, Smaller Than a Plastic Bottle

The Table Zero LT, scheduled for simultaneous release, weighs 237g. This achieves approximately a 62% weight reduction compared to the previous model, the Table One. When stored, it fits into a case the size of a plastic bottle, making it usable in situations where carrying a table was previously impractical.
