Product Description
Ergonomics in the lab is just as important as in the office or factory. It is a main contributor to efficiency, health, concentration, and posture. A high-quality, comfortable lab stool is vital to avoid muscular and skeletal injury resulting from bad posture.
The Perfect Sitting Position:
- ✔ Sit with feet flat on the floor or footrest.
- ✔ Maintain a 100-110° reclining position.
- ✔ Push hips as far back into the chair as possible.
- ✔ Keep knees at 90° or less.

Laboratory Selection Guide
Laboratory stools are engineered to suit rigorous environments. Unlike standard seating, purpose-built lab stools are:
- 🔹 Non-porous: Prevents absorption of liquids.
- 🔹 Wipe-able: Easy to clean and decontaminate.
- 🔹 Anti-bacterial: Resistant to microbial growth.
They are PC2 compliant, meaning surfaces are smooth, impermeable to water, and resistant to cleaning agents.

Lab Chairs vs. Office Chairs
Height Adjustment
Lab Chairs: Designed for various workstations like hoods and high benches. Feature pneumatic adjustments up to high ranges.
Office Chairs: Limited to standard desk heights; not ergonomically designed for high laboratory benches.
Backrest & Support
Lab Chairs: Adjustable vertically and horizontally to support the lumbar spine during tasks like pipetting or dissection.
Office Chairs: Not optimized for the specific forward-leaning movements required in lab work.
Seat Tilt
Lab Chairs: Tilt options help lower spine positioning when leaning forward into equipment.
Office Chairs: Stiff seats may cause difficulty when hunching is required for delicate procedures.
