ESD Stainless Steel Swivel Laboratory Stool Chair with a-Alloy Wheel

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

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

• 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 involve delicate materials and dangerous exposures. A purpose-built stool made from engineered polyurethane offers essential benefits:

• Non-porous: Prevents absorption of liquids.
• Wipe-able: Easy to clean and maintain.
• Anti-bacterial: Resists microbial growth.

These stools are PC2 compliant, meaning surfaces are smooth, impermeable to water, and resistant to cleaning and decontamination agents. They are engineered to prevent repetitive strain injuries (RSI) and provide a safe alternative to standard seating.
