If you’re looking for an office that’s designed for maximum efficiency and comfort, take your employees wellness into consideration with each decision you make. To keep your company running like a well-oiled machine, it’s important to keep your employees happy and although you may think a chair couldn’t possibly impact the happiness of an individual – think again. Purchase chairs that can be altered, to ensure your workforce are well catered for. These types of chairs can be suited to an individual’s height and posture, without it, they can experience strain, aches, pains and permanent back problems. So for help and advice when it comes to selecting your office chairs, read on…

Executive seating

– Adjustable in height to ensure the user can plant their feet firmly on the ground or on a footstool

– Adjustable back, keeping their posture in the correct resting position and to keep their spine in line with what’s comfortable

– Adjustable armrests are important to prevent repetitive strain order and help the individual get in and out of the chair with ease

– Overall comfort to support the body

– Visually appealing and gives the message that you are the leader and in control

Task and meeting seating

– Task chairs are ideal for activity-based meetings where individuals will only be seated for a short period of time

– Task chairs are likely to be more of a relaxed style, perhaps colourful to promote creativity and armless to allow for a quick change of seating – should people be put into specific groups

– Meeting seating is usually more formal, if you’re meeting clients, you will feel better presented in luxury leather chairs with upright backs and armrests – the right chair helps you adapt and change into your role

Breakout seating


– A multi-functional breakout area encourages agile working that we covered in our previous article – giving your workers increased flexibility

– Stimulates interaction and helps workers to relax

– Breakout seating is casual, large and usually without armrests because these areas allow workers to work remotely – important for well-being and retention

– Ideal for quick, informal meetings

Bar and breakout stools


– Perfect for quick meetings, usually this type of seating is basic and elevated with no back or armrests

– Modern and contemporary seating provides a nice break away from the usual office chair – encouraging interaction and collaboration between members of staff

– Increases productivity, morale and encourages movement and brain stimulation

Visitors and lounge seating

– Informal seating such as lounge seating or sofas make visitors feel welcome

– High quality, colourful sofas give a nice first impression to those who are visiting

– Not only ideal for clients and visitors but for informal chats too

– Promote relaxation and transparency

Soft seating

– Bean bags, pouffes and stools are versatile, lightweight and can be moved easily around the office to suit the occasion

– Used for impromptu meetings, they provide a simple solution

– Take up minimal space and are extremely comfortable
