Ergonomic chairs for home and office use

One of the many lessons that teleworking has taught us is the importance of taking care of our back health after spending hours and hours in front of a screen. Physical exercise is a basic part of this, as is choosing an office chair that suits our needs.

Ergonomic chairs for the home are perfect for protecting and caring for our backs during the time we spend sitting at our desks. But what distinguishes this type of chair from the rest? The main difference lies in the fact that they adapt to the body and the needs of each person, achieving a comfortable and healthy posture.

According to the EPISER study of the Spanish Society of Rheumatology (SER), around 80% of the population will suffer back pain at some point in their lives. Therefore, taking care of our posture is vital to reduce the chances of chronic ailments in the future.

Here are 4 ergonomic chairs from Arteconfort that will help you take care of yourself:

The versatile, comfortable and functional design of this office chair makes it one of our most recommended ergonomic products. It features cervical and lumbar support, along with breathable, stain-resistant, water-resistant and flame-retardant fabric, helping us to reduce back strain and have a healthy posture in our day-to-day work.

In addition, you have probably at some point encountered a chair with a gas piston that was leaking air. This happens because the gas spring is not of good quality and you had to adjust the seat height several times a week. Our ergonomic chairs include a class 4 gas spring, avoiding such situations and offering higher quality and safety to the user.

Another key point to take into account when purchasing a chair for the home is the swivel of the wheels, with OSAKA’s being 360º with a greater angle and, therefore, greater stability in our posture.

The RIAD desk chair for the home and office provides high-performance comfort, thanks to the lumbar reinforcement, armrests and headrest, all of which are combined with a simple and elegant design that includes breathable fabric and 5 wheels that make it easier to move and move with greater freedom of movement, thanks to the 360º swivel.

The black finish of this office chair blends perfectly with any environment, in addition, it supports a maximum load of 150 kilos and includes a class 4 gas piston, as we mentioned before, this is the piston used in high quality chairs, only surpassed by the class 5 that corresponds to XXL models.

Do you know the kind of chairs that make you fall in love with their comfortable look? VILNA is one of our most comfortable ergonomic chairs. The grey tone of the body, together with the ergonomic design, the reclining, lumbar and cervical backrest will help us to protect our neck, spine and to rest the lower part of the back to prevent future ailments.

This is the essential accessory for spending hours and hours sitting in front of your desk. Like the previous design, it includes 5 wheels to move freely around the room without scratching the floor and with the possibility of doing so on carpets. It also has a height regulator and a class 4 gas piston.

While, if you’re looking for a simpler design, SEUL is the ergonomic chair that will adapt perfectly to your body’s needs. It supports up to 150 kilos and will help you to reduce pressure and muscle fatigue, thanks to the lumbar and reclining backrest. In addition, as it is made, like the rest of the designs, with breathable fabric, it will help us to avoid body heat and keep us cool throughout the 365 days of the year.
