The chairs that do the actual work: Zeus, Portland, Relay and Palma mesh backs, the Storm and Nexus high backs, the budget friendly Luna II, wipe clean Malaga polyurethane chairs and a few useful outliers like the kneeling stool and the Spry sit stand stool. Task and operator chairs are bought by the dozen and sat in for thousands of hours, so small differences in spec turn into big differences in comfort.
Choosing a task chair
Back height and arms are the two decisions that matter. Medium mesh backs like the Portland II, Palma and Relay suit most desk work; high backs such as the Portland III, Storm and Regent add shoulder support for full time screen work, and the Nexus brings a headrest as well. Height adjustable arms, as fitted to the Mirage II and the Lisbon, are worth the upgrade for anyone typing all day. For deeper adjustment still, step across to ergonomic chairs.
The outliers earn their keep in particular jobs. The Malaga polyurethane chairs wipe clean, which makes them the pick for labs, workshops and clinics, and the Hi Rise Malaga suits counters alongside our draughtsman chairs. Shared desks and shift work call for the tougher builds in 24 hour chairs, and larger colleagues are better served by heavy duty chairs than by wearing out a standard chair before its time.
Around the task chair
Most task chairs are ordered alongside desks, and it pays to pair them properly: a sit-stand desk changes what you need from the chair underneath you, and the mesh options from across the whole range are gathered in mesh chairs. Replacement castors, gas lifts and headrests to keep a fleet running for years are all in accessories.

Ordering twenty or more? Ring +44 (0)2890 770019 first. Mixing two or three models across different roles usually beats one chair for everyone, and we will spec that honestly rather than steering you to the dearest option.
