Synchronous Body-Float Mechanism
SYNCHRONOUS BODY-FLOAT MECHANISM
Dondola mechanism
Ergonomic executive chair Alumedic Test is equipped with the unique Dondola ® active seating technology intergrated in the seat, giving the office chair more dynamism. Two steel plates interlocked in the centre of the office chair with a flexible joint create a 3D seating effect, as the office chair replicates every slight movement user makes in all directions. The seat moves forward, backwards and sideways with the body, adapting to the body’s movements. This makes for a very comfortable seating experience, as the back muscles are not strained – sitting in this chair relaxes the intervertebral discs in the spine, which improves blood circulation.
The Dondola ® active seating mechanism, which has been approved by medical research, provides three-directional movement when sitting, allowing active sitting throughout the entire sitting time, strengthening and protecting the back muscles from pain. Studies have confirmed that more than 84% of those who tested the Dondola® chair felt more active while sitting and 56% experienced a reduction in back pain.
Although the benefits of Dondola® have been proven by medical studies, some clients find the dynamic mechanism uncomfortable and unstable. If you are unsure whether Dondola® is really for you, we recommend to contact our consultants or try out a chair with the Dondola® mechanism in person in our showroom.
Alumedic Test is also recommended by our partner HEALTHY BACK SCHOOL.
DONDOLA MECHANISM
Seat depth adjustment
Alumedic Test has a seat depth adjustment function. This is particularly important for taller or shorter people. Additionally, this function is particularly useful when the chair is used by more than one person. This allows each user to adjust the chairs seat depth to their own individual requirements.
The correct seat depth helps to maintain correct back posture and improve well-being when sitting, the key is to know how to choose the correct chair depth. When sitting in a chair, there should be a gap of 4-8 cm between the legs and the front of the seat. The person’s feet should be at a right angle of 90° to the floor. If you have any questions about how to adjust your ergonomic chair, please contact our consultants.
SEAT DEPTH ADJUSTMENT
Seat angle adjustment
Executive swivel chair Alumedic Test seat angle adjustment is a crucial part for reducing the pressure exerted on the groin, improving circulation and allowing to find the optimum sitting position, especially for people with larger builds.
These benefits are particularly important as one of the largest arteries in the body run through the groin. Prolonged pressure in this area can interfere with the natural blood flow, resulting in swelling, discomfort or even chronic health problems.
It is also worth mentioning that seat angle adjustment is a very popular and recommended feature for people with larger builds. Without the tilt adjustment, the pressure on the crotch area may be too great and the 3/5 degree tilt helps to distribute the body weight evenly throughout the seat.
If you have any questions about how to adjust the seat angle on your chair or want to know more about Alumedic Test, please contact our professional certified consultants.
SEAT ANGLE ADJUSTMENT
Adjustable headrest
People who spend a lot of time working at a computer often eventually start to feel fatigue in their shoulder and neck muscles, leading to discomfort and muscle tension. Alumedic Test headrest helps relieve some of the tension and pain by providing support for the neck and upper back.
The headrest can also improve your posture. When the head is unsupported, people automatically lean forward when working at a computer, creating pressure in the neck. Sitting in not optimal position for prolonged periods of time can lead to long-term spinal problems.
A headrest provides comfort, makes the user feel better and more productive while working, and increases the likelihood of maintaining the correct posture while sitting. The headrest is adjustable in height and depth, so everyone can find the most comfortable seating position for their height. Before buying a chair with a headrest, we recommend to make sure that the Executive chair Alumedic Test will provide the user with comfortable support and that seating experience will feel comfortable. We recommend visiting our showroom and trying this chair model in person.

The perforations in the leather reduce discomfort and perspiration during the hot season and give the material more softness and elasticity.
Natural leather is available in several colours, so you can easily match the chair to the surrounding furniture. Leather is an extremely durable and long-lasting material, resistant to scratches, tears or abrasion, making it a great investment if the chair will be used a lot and for a long time.
NATURAL PERFORATED LEATHER
Membrane backrest
The membrane has the special property of being very elastic and strong, and does not stretch. If the material is damaged, it will not tear further. Due to its lightness and its extreme durability and elasticity, the membrane is used in the aircraft manufacturing industry to reinforce the airframe.

Multi-directional backrest flexibility

The backrest of the chair adapts to the movements of the seated person’s body and maintains optimal back support at all times. The multi-directional flexibility of the back also encourages micro-movements that promote better blood circulation and reduce the load on the spinal discs.
MULTI-DIRECTIONAL BACKREST FLEXIBILITY
Ergonomically shaped seat and backrest
Our customers are particularly fond of Ergonomic executive chair Alumedic Test for its aesthetically pleasing backrest. Not only can it is stunning to look at, but it also serves a functional purpose – the moulded backrest follows the natural trajectory of the spine and supports the back muscles. The additional support replicates the curves of the spine and evenly distributes the weight of the support over the entire back, thus improving blood circulation and promoting a healthier sitting posture. Long-term correct sitting Alumedic Test can help prevent or reduce back pain and other chronic conditions associated with incorrect sitting.
11 mm castors (for soft floors)
Executive chair Alumedic Test is with castors for soft flooring. If the chair is used on hard flooring (wooden flooring, parquet, laminate), the surface may be damaged or scratched over time. Our specialists recommend that you purchase additional castors for hard flooring. Wheel axle 11 mm. The castors are made of thermoplastic elastomer, sometimes called thermoplastic rubber, which is a physical mixture of polymers consisting of materials with both thermoplastic and elastomeric properties. These wheels are softer and do not scratch hard flooring.
We recommend purchasing a plastic mat under the chair to protect the more sensitive floor covering. If a stable, fixed seating position is desired, we recommend chair feet instead of castors. When choosing chair castors, it is very important to pay attention to the type of use and the floor covering, if you are not sure we recommend you contact our consultants or visit our showroom.

People with disabilities or elderly customers often ask for chairs with feet. Learn more.
