Tension Lock Tool-Less Technology
Many Sprout items are designed using Tension Lock Tool-Less Technology. This technology is a patent-pending joint system that requires no additional hardware and can be assembled and disassembled repeatedly without losing durability or structural integrity.
By utilizing the natural strength and flexibility of Baltic Birch, these joints are sturdy and durable and can withstand large amounts of wear and tear. The tabs and slots on each part are engineered with a calculated amount of interference, which means they shouldn’t simply fit together. The user will need to apply a moderate amount of force to bring the parts together, which will keep them in a flexed state and create the tension that holds everything securely. Tools are not required to assemble this type of flatpack furniture, although a rubber mallet can be useful if you are experiencing difficulties during the initial assembly.
Unlike other pieces of furniture that are not intended to be assembled and disassembled over and over again, Sprout items were designed with this in mind. They are intended to meet the changing needs of your individual spaces and can be disassembled and stored when not in daily use. Assembly should become easier each time because of the way the joints fit together.
Please note that some items do require hardware, including the Sosta Bed, Bunk Bed, Luce Shelves, Climbing Triangle, and slat rolls on the Birch Montessori Floor Bed.
