Adjustable Height Stainless Steel Metal Lab Chairs Lab Stool for Analytical Chemistry Science Laboratory

Ergonomics in the lab is just as important as in the office, the factory or any other facility. It is the main contributor to your efficiency, attitude to work, health, concentration and posture. A high quality, comfortable and well-designed lab stool is extremely important when considering your lab furnishings. Potential injury from ergonomics is underestimated, as serious muscular and skeletal injury can be the result of bad posture and static working positions.

The perfect sitting position is free of bodily strain. You should:

• Sit with your feet flat on the floor or on a footrest
• Have a 100-110° reclining position (if applicable)
• Push your hips as far back into the chair as possible
• Keep your knees at 90° or less (at hip level or higher)
• Use back or lumbar support where possible

Laboratories are areas subject to very delicate materials and dangerous exposures. A safe, durable and purpose-built stool for your lab is essential. Stools purpose-built for labs are non-porous, wipe-able, and anti-bacterial. These are essential as they are easy to clean and made to be disassembled for decontamination. Laboratory stools are PC2 compliant, ensuring surfaces are smooth and resistant to cleaning agents.

Height Adjustment: Lab chairs are designed for various workstations such as hoods and high benches, offering 360-degree pneumatic adjustment. Office chairs are generally built for regular desks and lack ergonomic support for high desks.

Backrest: Lab chairs feature vertically and horizontally adjustable backrests to support the lumbar spine during precision tasks like pipetting. Office chairs often lack the support needed for leaning laboratory work.

Footrings: Adjustable footrings on lab chairs maintain healthy circulation in the lower body, especially for those working at high benches. Most office chairs limit leg flexibility.
