Posture and Bariatric Chairs

Ergonomic posture chair in an office

A posture chair supports an upright sitting position and adjusts to fit the person in it: seat height and depth, backrest height, lumbar support and tilt tension all set to your measurements. This range spans mesh task chairs, self-adjusting ergonomic work chairs and heavy duty models rated for round-the-clock use, with weight ratings from 135 kg to 234 kg and warranties up to 10 years.

Which posture chairs are in the range?

  • Mesh task chairs: Jirra, Buro Mentor, HÅG Futu, Konfurb Luna and HÅG SoFi. All five have breathable mesh backs and adjustable lumbar support; the Jirra adds a seat slide, 3D arms and tilt lock, rated to 160 kg with a 10 year warranty.
  • Self-adjusting chairs: the Buro Mentor's Dynamic Intelligence mechanism sets tilt tension automatically to your body weight, and its seat slide and height-adjustable lumbar suit shared desks. HÅG's inBalance tilt, on both the Futu and SoFi, moves smoothly backwards and forwards and can be locked in place.
  • Shared workplaces: the RH Mereo adjusts quickly between users, with synchronised tilt, independent seat and back tilt, seat slide and back height adjustment.
  • 24/7 control rooms: the BMA Secur24 is built for around-the-clock operations, with a reinforced mechanism rated to 234 kg and upholstery designed to withstand constant use by different operators.

What should I look for in a chair for good posture?

Adjustability first: the backrest should support the curve of your lower back at your sitting height, and the seat should let your feet rest flat. Seat depth adjustment matters for shared desks. Mesh backs hold their shape through long sessions, and synchronised tilt keeps the back supported as you recline.

Which models are certified?

The Buro Mentor carries AFRDI Green Tick Level B Gold and GREENGUARD Gold certification. The Konfurb Luna is AFRDI 142 rated to 160 kg for multi-shift use, GREENGUARD Gold certified and guaranteed for 10 years excluding upholstery. The HÅG SoFi's mesh is Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certified.

Do you have heavy duty options?

Yes. The BMA Secur24 is designed for 24/7 monitoring and control-room workstations, with a reinforced heavy duty mechanism rated to 234 kg. Tell us your usage pattern and weight requirements and we will match a chair.
