I'm often asked if I know of a simple, practical light weight staking chair which I could recommend. One of our latest partners, Ocee Design, offers such a product - Trellis

Trellis is a versatile, 100% recyclable breakout seating solution, also suitable as a break out, conference and meeting chair. This hard-wearing chair is easily stackable up to 25 high and transportable on the optional Trellis trolley, which makes Trellis an excellent space-saving product.

Technology has become a massive element in the world of education, too. So much so that it has affected the way educational activities and spaces are managed. Spaces have become smaller, but the amount of activities and people involved in them has risen considerably, allowing intensive interaction around one single item of technology.

KI Europe’s Maestro chair is the perfect product for environments that require high-density seating. Easily stackable, Maestro is an economic but very comfortable and versatile chair that is highly recommended for technology space usage.

Everyone knows that comfort and ergonomics are key elements in maintaining concentration and carrying out productive activities. When the body is properly supported the user can sit comfortably for longer periods of time without losing attention because they do not need to focus on remaining balanced rather than on the task they are carrying out. The breathing is also positively affected by good posture, as the lungs are able to draw in enough oxygen which in turn is essential to concentrate.



Strive high density stack chair from KI Europe is an excellent example of how comfort can be achieved through simple flex-back solution.

When you are remodelling your office with ergonomic furniture , making a decision on whether it’s going to be a classic or contemporary ergonomic look will have to be the first of many tough decisions you have to make. Once you have made that decision, you are going to have to stick with it because you want the design of your ergonomic office to have a natural décor that fits in with everything else in the room.

If you are going with the contemporary route in your ergonomic office , then you will be looking at ergonomic furniture that has a lot of colour, metal, and mesh materials in the body of the new office furniture. This would be an exciting change of pace for your office if you had the more nostalgic look before. Going with the contemporary look may not be for everyone so look online to see what companies are offering when it comes to contemporary ergonomic furniture .

If you decide that you want to go with the classic look, then you are going to be looking at the traditional wood ergonomic tables and chairs. Deep rich colours and leather chairs always gives the office the look of an established, well thought out business office that delivers success to their clients. The same can be said for the contemporary look as well so make sure you take the time to explore all your options when it comes to ergonomic furniture.
