ACHIEVING THE ERGONOMIC OFFICE SPACE

“A healthy workstation is one that allows you to work in a neutral, relaxed position. That setup “requires the least force, the least strength, the least effort,” said Alan Hedge, director of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Research Group at Cornell University, “and that means you’re putting the least amount of strain on your body.” To get there, you will want furniture that can be adjusted to your body size and shape — basically, “the more adjustability, the better,” said Justin Young, an industrial and operations engineer at Kettering University in Michigan.” How to Make Your Office More Economically Correct, The New York Times.

A couple of ergonomically notable office chairs from this year’s NeoCon include the Yanique ,an award winning Italian designed chair by MASSIMO COSTAGLIA.  It is the only single shell mesh chair available that can use the ergonomically correct synchro control required for a full task chair. With features that include:

• Perfect Movement: patented mono-shell synchronized system allows the back & seat to move at an ergonomic 2:1 ratio.
• Arms: ergonomic easy-adjustable height arm featuring a 4D textured cap or sleek, fixed conference arm.

The Silver award went to Nightingale with the NLC Model chair. This chair features:

• Arms: boasts flip-up arms.
• Adjustable: Newton Wafer mechanism™ Crafted to serve multiple purposes.
