Nice arms! You must work out!

Great News from Sitmatic!

With the aide of the nation’s leading ergonomists, we are pleased to announce our standard armrest has undergone complete redesign. This arm, model +1A is on our Alpha, Beta, and Boss Task chairs.

- The arm cap now rotates 360°; an upgrade at no additional charge. We have increased the strength of the spring to prevent accidental rotation

- The width adjusts with a smooth positive motion and now locks securely into 6 different positions by means of a lever.

- The height adjustment range has increased to 4” and now starts at a lower level than before.

Just another of the exciting new changes to come from us at Sitmatic. Stay tuned!

A Cup Holder With Personality

Who says innovation is non-existent in the office furniture industry? Take a look at the work of Frank Trevino, from the Sitmatic product development team.

Frank's challenge was the development of a retractable cup holder for our Erasmus Fixed Seating platform, that would be compact, functional and complimentary to the overall design of the product. (Let's face it, these days no one wanders too far without the obligatory bottle of water or steaming hot cup of Joe.) The installation is a high profile multi-use auditorium at Benefis Healthcare in Great Falls, Montana.

With pen, paper and protractor in hand Frank plodded ahead undaunted by those (actually, it was only me...) who questioned whether it could be done! In keeping with the automatic folding design of Erasmus, Frank envisioned a retractable version that wouldn't toss your beverage on the floor when exiting the seat. Draw, build, test...draw, build, test...you get the idea!

Voila! Success! Behold, the fruits of Frank's labor. The result is a blend of sound engineering and design, along with sensible function and simplicity.
