The importance
of ergonomics* in
office chairs

*ERGONOMICS
The word ergonomics derives from the Greek ergo (work) and nomos (rule): it is the body of multidisciplinary knowledge that regulates working environments and the objects within them, including seating.

Designing an ergonomic chair means identifying the most appropriate parameters for the health, well-being and safety of the people who will use it. It is a matter of fundamental importance, not least because the use of video terminals on a chair with non-ergonomic characteristics can lead to troublesome disorders of the muscles, joints and eyes, as well as excessive physical and mental fatigue.

An ergonomic work chair must be steady, but at the same time allow a certain freedom of movement. It must be the right size for the operator, have accessible and effective adjustment controls, provide proper lumbar support, be comfortable and hygienic. All these characteristics are intrinsic in Mstyle products.

Maximize
ergonomics

Lumbar support

The chair should provide the best support to the lumbar area of the back, which is one of the most sensitive areas. of the body. Adjustable lumbar support allows users to customize the position and intensity of the support.

Adjustable tilt

The ability to tilt the chair backwards or lock it in a reclined position can help reduce pressure on the spine and improve comfort during long sitting periods.

Height adjustment

The height of the chair should be adjustable to fit different heights of users. This allows people to have their feet on the ground and knees bent at an angle of about 90 degrees.

Seat depth

The seat depth should be adjustable so the users can sit with the back of the thighs fully resting on the seat without feeling compressed behind the knees.

Armrest

Adjustable or fixed armrests should be present to provide adequate support to the forearms, allowing users to relax their shoulders and elbows.

High-quality materials

A high quality fabric or upholstery contributes to the comfort and durability of the chair.

The seat material also should be breathable and comfortable to prevent overheating and excessive sweating.

Castors

Chairs with wheels should have freely rotating wheels that allow easy mobility without having to work too hard to move around.
