Choosing ergonomic furniture can be overwhelming when setting up a home office or redesigning an office space for your employees. With so many products on the market, narrowing your buying options can take time and effort.
Office chairs come in various colours and functions, from task chairs to boardroom seating. So how do you know which chair is right for you and your office?
Alberta Office Furniture is here to help you with a guide to choosing the best office chair!
Over time, sitting at your desk can increase your risk of developing various severe disorders. Non-ergonomic chairs cause musculoskeletal disorders, which affect your muscles, joints, tendons, ligaments, and nerves due to the lack of upper back support. As a result, your posture can be negatively impacted, leading to back pain due to pressure on your spine and backbone.
This is why a high-quality, ergonomic office chair is a crucial investment for good work health and productivity. In an office environment, employees are happier when their workplace looks after their well-being and provides a flexible environment!
A good office chair can support the natural curve of the spine. You should be able to adjust the armrests and remove them. Forearms and elbows should be able to rest lightly on them while typing if they are wide and comfortable.
When it comes to seat and backrest materials, look for comfortable ones for extended periods of sitting time. It is best to avoid synthetic materials that are unbreathable. Cloth on the seat is comfortable and breathable, while leather may be the easiest to maintain and clean!
The overall decor and aesthetics of your office are just as important! Alberta Office Furniture carries office chairs with a variety of colours and functions that will suit any office space.
