Back Shape

The slender upper back cushion shape allows unrestricted arm and upper
body movement. Regardless of the back size the central and lower portions
of the cushion effectively and comfortably support the back. Freedom of
movement can be important to comfort and productivity. Three backrest
heights are available to suit different users needs.

Spine-Pad

A special comfort “spine-pad” is incorporated into the back of each Tritek
Ergo-Select chair. It is made of molded foam, with an inset of memory foam.
The memory foam is activated by body heat and pressure and molds to the
back’s shape, thereby reducing pressure points along the spine

Back Height Adjustment

All chairs feature a concealed ratchet style back height / lumbar height
adjustment. This allows proper vertical positioning of the lumbar support.

Schukra Lumbar Support

Each chair is equipped with a depth adjustable lumbar support. Simply
rotate the lever on the back to increase or decrease the amount of lumbar
support. You control the back shape and comfort.

Standard Arms

The standard arms (G3) move in five directions: height adjustable (8.3" to

11.2" above the seat), width adjustable (WA), slide forward and back, rotate
30°inwards and slide over the seat ¾" each side. Features a wide armcap
made from soft durable polyurethane. Many other optional arms available.

“Low Rise” Optional Arm (6L)

The arms are both height and width adjustable. Provides an adjustment
range of 6.6" to 9" above the seat for use by smaller users and in special
applications.

Adjustable Seat Depth

With multi-tilter mechanism, seat slides forward and back for depth
adjustment, to match thigh length.

Seat Height

Each seat size has a specific seat height. A choice of optional pneumatic
cylinders allow users to select a seat height range that matches their lower
leg length.

Adjustable Tilt Tension

Tritek Ergo-Select chairs feature tilting actions that allow the user to adjust
the balance/spring tension of their chair to match their body weight for
comfortable, smooth, yet supportive movement.

Casters

Dual wheel carpet casters are standard. Upon request, dual wheel casters
for hard flooring can be provided.

adjustment is also standard to accommodate a wider

The longer you sit the more important the concept of “Fit” is. The right chair must :

• Move according to your needs and preferences, which may mean moving rhythmically and allowing you to move

from one fixed position to another.

• Match your body dimensions.

• Support you and your tasks properly.

• Fit Conditions = Move + Match + Support
