5 reasons to buy mesh office chairs
Getting the right office chair can have a huge impact on your health and comfort while at work. With such a wide range of chairs available on the market, it can be difficult to choose the one that will best suit you. Mesh office chairs are becoming increasingly popular in the modern workplace. So, what benefits do mesh chairs offer that other office chairs don’t?
1. Ventilation
One of the main benefits of a mesh chair is the ventilation that it provides. Office chairs upholstered in fabric or leather trap body heat between your body and the chair, causing you to sweat. Mesh back chairs allow better airflow to your back, which helps keep you cool and comfortable. All-mesh chairs go one step further by providing greater airflow around your entire body.
2. Low maintenance
Mesh chairs require very little maintenance and are much easier to wipe clean than their fabric equivalents. Moreover, the material will not stain, reducing the amount of cleaning needed in the first place. An added benefit of the increased airflow is that it prevents sweat and body odour from soaking into the upholstery. This improves hygiene in the office and is appreciated by all employees, particularly in offices without fixed desk spaces where staff may be expected to share office chairs!
3. Modern style
Thanks to the smart upholstery frequently combined with a chrome or moulded plastic frame, mesh desk chairs look great with contemporary office furniture, giving your office a stylish and modern look. It’s easy to forget the important of aesthetics in the workplace but an attractive office reflects who you are as a business, impresses clients and attracts the right employees.
4. Durability
The tightly-woven mesh featured on these chairs is surprisingly strong and durable. Whereas fabric and padding will suffer from wear and tear, mesh will continue to look and perform at its best. Look out for product guarantees on the upholstery and chair mechanism to ensure your chair will stand up to your needs.
5. Ergonomic support
As with all office chairs, many different types of mesh chairs are available. However, as a general rule, mesh backrests offer good levels of support and are ergonomically shaped to fit with the natural curvature of the spine. An ergonomic backrest is the best way to prevent back pain and encourage a healthy posture.
