No stone was left unturned in the development of the Aeron chair. The design for the Aeron chair was tested and polished with the help of countless users and medical experts to ensure maximum comfort and body support. Top ergonomists, orthopedic specialists and physical therapists assessed the Aeron chair's fit and movement, as well as the benefit and simplicity of the Aeron chair's adjustments.
PostureFit: The Aeron Chair has full ergonomic support for maximum comfort. The office chair incorporates PostureFit, a breakthrough lower back support system that works with the body's natural biomechanics to maintain a healthy posture and boost lower back comfort. For extra ergonomic back support, the Aeron chair is also built with a high and wide contoured back in order to take the weight off of the lower spine. To reduce pressure under the thighs and increase circulation, the Aeron office chair is built with a waterfall front edge.
Kinemat Tilt: The Kinemat tilt mechanism with tension adjustment allows the user to move around in the chair comfortably and naturally. For accurate support in every position, the vertical and depth lumbar pads adjust so users can ensure utmost comfort and reduce spinal trauma. The Aeron chair is a chair that tilts and moves in response to the user's motion, so whether the person's moving around or sitting still, the Aeron chair instinctively supports the preferred posture.
Pellicle Suspension: The Aeron Chair uses Pellicle suspension to allocate weight equally over the seat and back for total support. The Pellicle conforms to each user's shape to reduce pressure. A research team also performed pressure mapping and thermal tests to find out the weight distribution and heat and moisture dissipating qualities of the Pellicle material on the chair's seat and back. As a result, a natural ventilation design was implemented to keep the user cool and comfy.
Lumbar Support: An adjustable Lumbar support is added to the Aeron chair for added comfort and stability through hours of seated work. The Aeron creators know how important good back support is to proper spine alignment, so their lumbar pad connects to the chair back and adjusts vertically through a four and a half inch height range. It also can increase and decrease in depth by sliding the pad off and turning it around.
