An ergonomic chair to fit everyone

• Move according to your needs and preferences, which may mean moving rhythmically and allowing you to move
from one fixed position to another.

Back Shape
The slender upper back cushion shape allows unrestricted arm and upper
body movement. Regardless of the back size the central and lower portions
of the cushion effectively and comfortably support the back. Freedom of
movement can be important to comfort and productivity. Three backrest
heights are available to suit different users needs.

•

The longer you sit the more important the concept of “Fit” is. The right chair must :

• Match your body dimensions.
• Support you and your tasks properly.
• Fit Conditions = Move + Match + Support

Spine-Pad
A special comfort “spine-pad” is incorporated into the back of each Tritek
Ergo-Select chair. It is made of molded foam, with an inset of memory foam.
The memory foam is activated by body heat and pressure and molds to the
back’s shape, thereby reducing pressure points along the spine

•

All chairs feature a concealed ratchet style back height / lumbar height
adjustment. This allows proper vertical positioning of the lumbar support.

Schukra Lumbar Support

•

Each chair is equipped with a depth adjustable lumbar support. Simply
rotate the lever on the back to increase or decrease the amount of lumbar
support. You control the back shape and comfort.

Standard Arms

•

The standard arms (G3) move in five directions: height adjustable (8.3" to
11.2" above the seat), width adjustable (WA), slide forward and back, rotate
30° inwards and slide over the seat ¾" each side. Features a wide armcap
made from soft durable polyurethane. Many other optional arms available.

“Low Rise” Optional Arm (6L)

range of 6.6" to 9" above the seat for use by smaller users and in special

Seat Height

leg length.

Adjustable Tilt Tension
Tritek Ergo-Select chairs feature tilting actions that allow the user to adjust
the balance/spring tension of their chair to match their body weight for
comfortable, smooth, yet supportive movement.

•

* One of the key ergonomic guiding principles for the design of
workplaces for computer tasks is the concept of “Fit” - the extent
to which furniture and equipment accommodates your needs and
task requirements. Correct application of the fit concept when
selecting a chair means understanding your needs and preferences
first, then selecting features accordingly. Download the fit story at:
