When buying an office chair for yourself or for an employee, you should think of it as your own personal office assistant. It should provide good support and make your day go swimmingly. A comfortable office chair makes it easy for you to focus on your work, and go about your job without getting distracted by back pains.
For those who spend long periods of time at their office desk, high quality office chairs and suitable office seating is essential for the comfort of the individual. There are many different factors to consider when purchasing an office chair, so let’s have a look at some of the most important ones:
Lumbar Support
The main concern that most people have when choosing an office chair is back support. The health implications of a poorly chosen chair without adequate back support can be quite serious. With lumbar support, your lower back will be supported in such a way that it is always slightly arched so that you don’t slump by the time the afternoon comes!
Our range of posture chairs and operator chairs are designed especially for people who need lumbar support that is safe enough to spend long hours in one seated position. Perhaps you require a 24 hour operator chair designed for extended use, chairs for a multiple-shift environment that requires round-the-clock-staffing – we’ve got the right chair for you.
Whatever office chair you choose, lower back support is essential to minimise the strain on your back. We supply the best selection office chair accessories. Whether it’s mesh back support, adjustable arm rests, foot rests, chair mats or chair arms, we’ve got it all.
Adjustable Backrests
You should be able to position your backrest in a way that suits the type of work you are undertaking. You should also be able to move the backrest forward or backward. It is good to have a locking mechanism in place.
For ultimate comfort and luxury, why not check out our range of executive chairs that can include features such as button-tufted back cushions, adjustable comfort controls, headrests, removable and/or padded arms, and dual wheel casters. We’ve also got conference chairs that are great for use in conference rooms, meeting rooms, or any area that needs to accommodate guests or clients. Meetings and presentations can often last for hours on end, so maybe you want to choose something really comfortable.
Material and Padding
Choose a material that lets your body breathe – this is especially important if you are sitting at your desk for long periods of time. Fabric is an ideal option. Maybe the chair isn’t for you, but for a visitor. Our range of meeting room chairs, visitor seating and reception chairs will make your guests feel at ease. Making the right first impression is imperative for successful business practice. Choose from leather visitor reception chairs to simpler office visitor chairs.
Armrests and Swivels
You need an office chair with armrests in order to remove some of the load off your neck and shoulders. These should be adjustable, so you can position them according to your comfort. Also, you should be easily able to swivel your chair for added mobility.
