It’s a fact that obesity, heart disease, and diabetes have increased dramatically over the last ten years. And where do we find that we spend a majority of our time? In our office chairs.

Now, there are a lot of things that come into play when talking about getting an office chair. When it comes to your job, you may not have control over what office chair gets purchased. Another very strong motivator is price; it’s very tempting to find a semi-comfortable chair that has a great price. Not to mention that many chairs are very comfortable to begin with but, because they’re made with inferior quality materials, lose support quickly. However, this decision is quite possibly the most crucial; where else do we spend 8-10 hours a day?

It has been reported by the Office of National Statistics that more than 70% of the general public suffer from back pain at some point in our working lives. This may be the result of having a poor quality chair, which can also lead to long-term bad posture, increased stress on the spine and pelvis as well as headaches.

It is important, therefore, for office workers to have chairs that allow them to sit in a position in which the spine is naturally balanced and well supported. Also, to prevent long-term discomfort, it is important that office chairs allow the worker to sit so that their thighs are angled in a slightly downwards direction, which in turn encourages a good blood flow to the feet.

There are a range of Executive Fabric Chairs which allow the user to sit ergonomically (i.e. without the risk of developing back pain in later life). This is because these chairs are built around the optimum ergonomic measurements such as a seat height ranging from 16 to 21 inches (allowing the user to rest their feet on the floor and have their arms resting horizontally to their desk) and a back seat width of 19 to 21 inches (to support the natural curve of the spine). Most importantly for office workers, however, the fabric of these chairs have enough special padding to allow the user to sit in them for extended periods of time.

These Executive Fabric Chairs are not only very practical, they are available in a wide range of colours and designs, meaning that there is a chair to match the aesthetic of nearly any office location. Also, because of the increased comfort that these chairs provide for the users, it is likely that any company who provides such chairs for their employees may see an increase in output since a comfortable employee is a productive employee.
