Why We Needed So Many Aeron Chairs
There’s always a need to get bigger offices especially when some of our clients have opened a new headquarters office or satellite location in Singapore.
Herman Miller Aeron chair is always the most requested ergonomic task chair our clients require.
Statistics reveal that backaches are among the most commonly reported ailments in office environments, resulting in billions of dollars in claims annually. This is why many large corporations opt for Herman Miller office chairs, which are renowned for their orthopedic design that prioritizes patient comfort.
Choosing the Aeron Chair Model
After substantial research, we considered options like Steelcase, Haworth, Hinobi, Ergoworks, Sihoo, but most of those options are not ergonomically designed based on research. As such, we went with the safe choice and selected the Aeron chair as the most recommended options when clients require us to furnish their offices. The quality is guaranteed.
Seeking Adjustability, Why the Remastered Aerons are the best options
Staff often shift positions frequently, and the Aeron chair offers fully adjustable ergonomic settings to accommodate this flexibility. Recent ergonomic research highlights the importance of movement to enhance blood circulation. Consequently, the remastered Aeron chair was designed to replace the Classic Aeron chairs, which we have entirely phased out. While the older Herman Miller Aeron chairs were excellent products, they had a rigid design that caused discomfort, particularly in the legs and lower lumbar area. The Remastered Aerons are more adaptive to the human body, featuring a softer mesh for more comfortable sitting. We have sold off the Classic Aerons to liquidators and have found the Remastered Aerons to provide superior comfort and ergonomic benefits.
