TwentyfourIs5 – Comfort and Design for 24-hour Use

At ORGATEC, Interstuhl , one of the leading chair manufacturers in Europe, presented a new product solution for ergonomic sitting round the clock: TWENTYFOUR (performance class 5). The swivel armchair was specially developed for the challenges of continuous use. From control centres and monitoring rooms to airports and other locations – in applications where absolute concentration is required, the TWENTYFOUR and its features enable sitting without tiring, 24 hours a day.

The TWENTYFOUR was developed by building on a base that has been successfully tried and tested in practice. With the combination of quality, ergonomics, range of functions and design, the TWENTYFOUR promises a performance it has been proven to deliver. At the centre of the ergonomic chair is a two-zone foam seat with a synchronous mechanism as a base, which protects our bodies from growing tired. The interchangeable topper, which can be cleaned chemically and therefore ensures hygiene in shift operation, offers an additional level of comfort. The upholstery is made from wear-resistant materials such as leather or durable upholstery fabrics that are particularly resistant to long hours of use. The robust aluminium base provides maximum stability, making the chair suitable for persons weighing up to 150 kg. The folding 5D armrests are a particular highlight that make shift changes even more seamless.

 

Certified safety
Signs of fatigue can have serious consequences in areas with multi-shift operation. Chairs need to meet complex requirements in order to help users stay focused over long periods of time. In addition to the most important global standards, such as the GS certification (DIN EN 1335), ANSI/BIFMA x5.1 and Ergonomics Approved (TÜV Rheinland), the TWENTYFOUR also complies with the sought-after British standard BS 5459-2. It specifies a test method where the continuous use over 24 hours with a user weight of 150 kg is tested and is therefore a certification that provides valid evidence for intensive use. With this new seating solution, Interstuhl is supplementing the segment of 24-hour chairs with an ergonomic and safe product that satisfies even the highest aesthetic demands. TWENTYFOUR, the swivel chair for continuous use, around the clock. Comfort is provided by the replaceable topper, which can be changed and cleaned in just a few steps. This ensures hygiene during shift work.
