Orthopaedica 200

Description

Every individual is unique in their proportions, which is why we developed a range of back heights within the Orthopaedica range. The mid back variation is built with a laminated core; the Orthopaedica 200 Design is available with an upholstered outer and inner back.

Orthopaedica 200 is a comprehensive range of ergonomically responsive task seating designed to meet the challenging conditions founds in today’s commercial environment. Boasting an impressive list of possibilities, Orthopaedica provides the user with the ultimate level of postural support with sculptured seat and back cushions, making it an ideal choice for those with back problems.

Independent mechanism

• An independent mechanism enables the seat and backrest angle to be adjusted independently of each other, with the ability to lock in a fixed position.
• Seat angle can be adjusted by lifting the left lever on the side of the chair and can be set to the desired position and locked in place by releasing the lever. Raising the lever to its most upright position allows the seat angle to adjust as you work.
• Back angle can be adjusted by lifting the rear lever on the right-hand side of the chair and can be set to the desired position and locked in place by releasing the lever.

Fully synchronised mechanism

• The fully synchronised mechanism provides a synchronised tilting action where the seat and back recline together at a fixed ratio of 2.8:1 which reflects the natural geometry of the way the body moves; providing fluid ergonomic support.
• The extent of recline can be fixed in the desired position and locked in place by adjusting the lever. Raising the lever allows the chair to enter into a free float action, it is referential to leave the chair in a free-floating motion as this can contribute to good back health. To optimise this function it is important to adjust the chair dimensionally, adjusting the tension control will allow you to vary the resistance of the mechanism.
