Choosing a work chair is a matter on which to place due care and should be chosen based on one’s physical characteristics and hours of use, which should be spent in an ergonomically correct manner
The part of the armchair we are talking about in this blog, namely the seat, is the most “delicate” one, the one where we rest our backs, the one that must therefore be comfortable but not floppy, it must ensure breathability, it must support the buttocks, it must allow a comfortable seating position, it must not press on the thighs ensuring maximum blood circulation, it must accompany us by translating combining with the backrest ensuring pelvis support and perpendicularity between the back and thighs, and finally that it is easily cleanable precisely for proper sanitation after use..
Today, whether in the office with the chair that is no longer “one’s own,” because of new work trends(shared workplace by several people, smart working, telecommuting, remote activities, etc.), or at home, where it can be shared with one’s cohabitants, it is necessary to have a very versatile work chair for anyone who uses it: therefore, it will be necessary for it to be easy in adjustments and to return to optimal conditions with each change of user.
On this occasion, we remind you that with the “supports decree” of last May, the government doubled (for those eligible) the FRINGE BENEFIT that the employee, in agreement with his or her company, can use for the purchase of products to create a workplace that has safety and well-being characteristics, as provided for in Legislative Decree 81/08.

When quoted from an unimpeachable text, such as a dictionary, the term loses any meaning other than what is mentioned in the semantic and morphological sections.

Remembering that sitting for hours without any interruption is not recommended, the best performing office chair seat today is elastic mesh (mesh). For years Herman Miller’s iconic AERON has used it, becoming the “benchmark” in the market, but because of limited production and costs due to thehigh quality of the material, few companies can use it, preferring to keep the padding and affix a substitute only to the backrest. These alternatives are often produced from plastic or a mixed material that, does not have the necessary cartteristics to offer the best seating quality. COMFORT has also always used elastic mesh (mesh) for seating, providing users with comfort never previously experienced.
Having eliminated the padding also ensures that the terga rests on a soft, breathable support, which allows the body to enjoy the environmental conditions around it, avoiding those sweating episodes resulting from resting the person on a material such as “foam” (foam rubber or similar) covered with fabric. Finally, the elastic mesh (mesh) has the advantage of being easily cleaned with a simple microfiber cloth dampened with an alcohol solution (vegan/bio products that are excellent for use are also found on the market) and, since it is not padded, even the fortuitous spilling of a liquid does not cause damage resulting from absorption by the fabric and padding.
Finally, but very importantly, it is that the seat of the chair adapts to the needs of the user: with the translator (sliding of the seat surface) the seat encourages the correct support of the buttocks and the optimal one to allow the correct support of the back. In addition, the curvatures of the seat top should ensure the best blood circulation while avoiding compression of the thighs due to the angle of the seat edges.
So, in summary, we recommend that you prefer office chairs that
– are lined with elastic mesh (mesh), tested for heavy use and the ‘high strength, comfortable and supportive due to its elasticity:
– allow adjustment of the seat’s translation to ensure proper pelvic support and proper support for the thighs and back, thus to a correct ergonomic posture;
– does not retain the footprint of the user’s body, allowing intensive use by multiple people, even those of different sizes, who will always be able to have an armchair that is customized to their habitus;
– Is easy to clean and sanitize.
