Laboratory workers have traditionally been at risk for repetitive motion and other injuries associated with tasks including pipetting, microscopy, and keyboarding, as well as awkward positioning when using fume hoods and biosafety cabinets. Fortunately, most lab managers are aware that today’s ergonomic seating plays a key role in helping laboratorians avoid repetitive motion and musculoskeletal injuries and other mishaps while bolstering comfort and performance.
But besides adjustability, functionality and component developments to address worker motion, some lab seating models also feature advanced components and fabrication techniques specifiers may not be aware of, such as upholstery protocols that can help prevent bacterial and fluid infiltration in seat cushioning, and easy-to-clean antimicrobial polymer-blend seats and backs. The result is ergonomic seating solutions that can potentially deliver an even higher degree of worker well-being.
BioFit laboratory seating is designed and constructed to address the challenges you face with lab-inherent ergonomics and postures, such as the flexibility to work at various surface heights and the prevalence of forward-leaning positions. We offer laboratory chairs with numerous ergonomic adjustments, comfortable and easy-to-maintain components and long-term, multishift reliability.
