IMAT's 'Recliner System' is cleverly designed to maximize rest and relaxation within a public setting. The airport furniture manufacturer is known for creating seating solutions that address comfort and convenience, and this system is no exception.

While comfort-focused airport amenities are more popular that ever before -- from on-site [napping pods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eclipse-capsule) to in-airport hotels -- some airport destinations tend are more limited than others due to lack of space and the need for [more versatile furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flow-seating). Designed to withstand wear and tear, while offering an enhanced level of comfort, the Recliner System by IMAT offers a smart solution for airports that feature a limited square footage.

Available in a variety of neutral and bright shades, this seating system is fully customizable by users, allowing them to pair multiple [reclining units](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/davidhugh-aiora) together, mix them with more traditional seating, or to separate them with central partitions which double as storage surfaces.
