Synchronous mechanism

One of the main advantages of the mechanism is that the seat and backrest are not connected. When the backrest moves, the seat moves in the same direction in a certain ratio (usually 2:1 or 3:1). This gives a more pleasant sitting sensation and reduces the load on the back muscles. The chair's synchronous control mechanism allows to lock the tilt angle to the desired sitting position.

As the chair swings freely, the synchronous mechanism actively maintains an optimal and ergonomic seating angle. The firmness of the chair's oscillation can be adjusted individually according to the weight of the sitter. Ergonomic office chair ALUMEDIC 5 with pneumatic lift easily raises or lowers to the desired sitting
height. The Ergonomic chair ALUMEDIC 5 with synchronous mechanism is recommended

Dondola mechanism

Ergonomic desk chair ALUMEDIC 5 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 5 is also recommended by our partner HEALTHY BACK SCHOOL.

3D armrests with width adjustment

The armrests of this chair provide support for the arms. This reduces tension on the arms, shoulders, neck and hand muscles. This is particularly important when sitting for long periods of time. When work is finished, the armrests can be used as a support when standing up, thus reducing the strain on the pelvic muscles.

The armrests can be raised, lowered and their width adjusted to the position you want with the push of a button. If the armrests are locked too high or too low, they may interfere with your body movements and cause discomfort.

It is recommended to choose an armrest position that allows the arms to be bent at about 90° while sitting at the desk, with the shoulder blades naturally relaxed and in a straight horizontal line. It is important to ensure that when sitting in a chair, the legs of the person should be at a straight 90° angle to the floor. ALUMEDIC 5 is an excellent ergonomic solution. If you have any questions about how to adjust your ergonomic chair, please read the advice from our consultants.

Tapestry seat

The seat of this chair is covered with a soft tapestry fabric. This type of fabric is particularly popular because it is soft and pleasant to the touch to the skin and is available in a wide range of colours. Tapestry chairs match easily with the surrounding furniture and décor. Tapestry is a relatively hard-wearing and durable material, so the chair can be used comfortably for many years.

It is worth noting that tapestry seats are sometimes can become a popular place for cats to scratch their claws. Before buying an office chair, assess your pet’s tastes. If you think this may be a problem, we suggest you contact our experts to find a solution that works for you.

Castors for hard flooring

Additional castors are desinged for hard floors (wooden, laminate floors). Castor axle 10 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.

If you prefer a stable sitting position on this work chair, you can also purchase optional 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.

Height-adjustable table

Our specialists recommends taking breaks during work based on medical research. Taking a 15-minute break every 45 minutes to move around. Prolonged sitting in one fixed position increases the likelihood of chronic pain and cardiovascular disease. We recommend combining seated work with standing work, together at a height-adjustable table! Learn more

Chair feet

When you buy an office chair, we often get questions about whether the castors can be replaced with feet. Of course! An office chair with feet is stable and its functionality remains unchanged. This is especially true for workplaces where there is a small, limited working area and stability is needed: shops, warehouses and production companies. People with disabilities or elderly customers often ask for chairs with feet. Learn more.
