French term or phrase: compo ado
Referring to something on the manufacturer's website, but I can't find that term anywhere. I'm pretty sure it's an abbreviation for something, but what escapes me.

La marque ... distribue également un modèle sans assise tissu (voir modèle présenté dans la compo ado du site), et avec un piètement plastique noir.

ADO component


Explanation:
the French is short for "composant ADO"

The ADO stands for ActiveX Data Objects

BTW although it's written "LA compo ado" I suspect this is a mistake on the part of the person who wrote the text. "LA composante" exists of course, but here I think it should be "LE composant".

Notes to answerer
Asker: I'm familiar with what an ADO is, but it makes no sense to me in this context, which is why I didn't use it.


Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
neutral  philgoddard: I'm sure this is correct, but can you explain what it means? What is the ADO component of a site? Why would a description of (presumably) a chair appear there?
