Mesh backs took over offices for one plain reason: they breathe. This range covers the full spread, from everyday task chairs like the Zeus, Tutti and Ventra, through the Stealth Shadow ergonomic posture chair, up to executive mesh in the Victor II, the Vegalite and the white shelled Zure. There is even a mesh backed visitor option in the Vero Airmesh cantilever. If mesh turns out not to be the answer, the wider chair range covers fabric and leather too.
Choosing a mesh chair
Match the chair to the hours. For a standard working day, a medium mesh back task chair such as the Zeus or the Tutti with adjustable arms covers most people, and there are more like them under task and operator chairs. Longer days, back trouble or shared desks push you toward the Stealth Shadow and its neighbours in ergonomic posture chairs, where lumbar support and seat adjustment come as standard rather than as options.
Mesh quality varies more than fabric quality. A good mesh back holds its tension across years of leaning; a cheap one hammocks within months and pushes your shoulders forward. Check arm adjustability as well, because arms set your distance from the desk more than the seat does. Height adjustable arms, as fitted on the Ventra, are worth having for anyone who types all day.
Beyond the task chair
Managers wanting the same breathability with a bit more presence should look at the mesh models within executive chairs, or weigh them against leather office chairs for the traditional alternative. Control rooms and shift work are a different discipline entirely and need the tougher builds in 24 hour chairs, rated for constant rather than occasional use.
