Modular approach Build-to-order. All components are interchangeable. WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT Modular approach Build-to-order. All components are interchangeable. Many back rest styles and sizes, 6 seat sizes, multiple arm types, 6 base types and 5 gas lift types. Fit 100% of the workforce.

Patented technologies ERGOCENTRIC TECHNOLOGY Patented technologies Adjustable head rest 3 pivot points and 7" of vertical and horizontal adjustment. Adjusts to fit every individual and can be moved out of the way. 5" of infinite back height adjustment system Allows an ergoCentric chair to fit more people than any other chair on the market. Swivel lateral arms Allows ergoCentric to fit individuals whose hips are wider than their shoulders with proper arm rests.
