The goal of proper seating is to reduce the stresses caused
to the human body by the seated posture. Ergo-Industrial SPU
chairs offer the following features:
Seat Pan
Various sized seat pans are available to ensure the seat
pan is deep and wide enough to distribute the user’s
weight evenly. All Ergo-Industrial seats feature:
- Waterfall curve at the front edge to reduce pressure on
the veins in the back of the legs
- Contoured sides to redistribute weight away from the two
ischial tuberosity bones (diagram)
Back Support
Ergo-Industrial backrests include a lateral curve, which
reduces muscle activity by providing stability for the upper
body, and a forward lumbar curve to help position the lumbar
spine into its natural curvature. The lumbar curve
is built into the back structure and not just the foam.
Ergo-Industrial backrest adjustment options include:
- Vertical adjustment to allow the lumbar support to be
placed where it is needed
- Horizontal lumbar adjustment to vary the amount of support
- Angle adjustment of the backrest in relation to the seat
to more than 90 degrees
Arm Support
Arm supports help stabilize the upper body, thereby reducing
static muscle activity and assist in getting in and out of
the chair. All arm options come standard with a very durable
industrial ARM CAP.
