All options for your seating solution

Adjustable seat

Seats can be adjusted in several ways. First of all, they are often height-adjustable. This is the most common option. Most chairs you can buy are height-adjustable. That way, you can align them with your height and work surface. When adjusting, make sure your feet are firmly on the floor.

Adjustable backrest

When you choose a chair with a backrest, it’s nice to have it adjustable. For example, opt for a backrest that you can set to your preferred height. That way, you get support exactly where you need it.

Adjustable armrests

Armrests are optional. Maybe you prefer to have free movement for your arms. In that case, choose a seating solution without armrests. However, if you do want armrests, make sure they are adjustable.

This can be done in different ways. Of course, there are armrests that can be adjusted in height. That way, you create the right angle for your elbow. But did you know there are even more options? Some chairs allow you to adjust the angle of the armrests. In addition, you can find armrests that can be adjusted not only in height, but also in width and depth.

Do you want complete freedom in setting up your armrests? Then choose armrests that can rotate both horizontally and vertically. You’ll find these, for example, on the Score Ergo Support. This chair is especially suitable when you often perform very precise work. Think of endodontics, microsurgery, or laboratory work.

Lumbar support

A lumbar support provides extra support for your lower back. You can add this to your saddle stool. That way, you get all the benefits of a stool, plus additional back support. Stools are ideal for mobility and hybrid working. You can easily alternate between sitting and standing. They also take up little space and are easy to move. On the other hand, not everyone likes having no upper body support. In that case, adding a lumbar support is a smart idea. It’s still compact, but also very sturdy. This way, you can work comfortably and relaxed!

Footring

A footring is ideal when working at a high work surface. Thanks to the foot ring, your legs don’t dangle. This ensures proper blood circulation. Many ergonomic chairs and stools come with a height-adjustable foot ring, which you can adapt precisely to your body height.

Castors

Do you want a seating solution with or without castors? If you don’t want castors under your chair or stool, stable glides are a good option. They ensure that you sit firmly and comfortably, and your chair won’t move!

Do you prefer mobility? Castors come in all shapes and sizes. You can vary not only in size, but also in type. For example, there are castors suitable for hard or soft floors. Choose a castor that matches your work environment. This ensures your chair functions optimally and prevents floor damage. Often, you can also choose load-dependent braked castors. These are ideal when you want to move the chair easily but don’t want it to roll while sitting.

Fixed mechanism

Do you just want to sit quickly without any fuss? A fixed mechanism lets you adjust the seat height only. Simple and ideal when you sit briefly or share your chair or stool with others.

Adjustable mechanism (tilt)

Do you want to fine-tune your sitting posture? With this mechanism you can adjust not only the height but also the seat angle. Useful if your work surface isn’t height adjustable or if you want to reduce pressure on your thighs by tilting the seat slightly.

Balance mechanism

Want to stay active while sitting? The Balance mechanism lets the seat move slightly with your body. You automatically change position and engage your muscles while sitting. You can easily adjust the resistance using the ring under the seat.

Synchro mechanism

When you lean back, the seat and backrest move together. You stay in an ergonomic posture with the right support. The backrest tension is usually adjustable to your body weight.

Contact mechanism

Here, the seat stays stable while only the backrest follows your movements. That way you always have back support, even when you shift position. Ideal if you move a lot but still want a steady base.

Flowmatic mechanism

Prefer a chair that automatically adapts to you? The Flowmatic mechanism continuously follows your movements and automatically adjusts the backrest tension. No settings needed — you just sit and feel supported.
