Since the 1980s the Equa chair has been a benchmark for ergonomic seating. Breaking with the tradition of regarding a seat as a token for the sitter’s status, Equa concentrates instead on a equal degree of comfort throughout the office.

Features and benefits

The Equa 2 chair features the patented Equa shell, a single piece of fibreglass-reinforced polyester resin designed for dynamic sitting.

An H-shaped cut-out lets the back and seat flex separately, so the chair moves naturally with the user and provides good lower back support for every work posture. The H-shaped cut-out also lets air circulate, preventing heat build-up during long-term sitting.

The shell is manufactured in an environmentally safe way, with integral colour and durable materials for a long, hard-working life.

To fit a broad range of people, the Equa 2 work chair comes in three shell sizes—A, B, and C, so everyone, from smaller and lighter to taller and heavier men and women, can have uncompromised comfort and support.

An optional tilt-lock feature secures the work chair in an upright position for work-intensive postures. Equa 2 stools, unlike most stools, also have a tilt option.

People can easily adjust the arms of the Equa 2 chair to suit their size and activity. Optionally, the arm adjusts vertically in a 10cm range and laterally up to 2cm.

The pneumatic adjustment provides generous seat height ranges to accommodate shorter and taller workers—and everyone in between.
