Leading the Industry since 1985

Established over twenty-five years ago, Status Seating has earned an enviable reputation for quality, design and service. We are the sole UK manufacturer of System Therapod®, the back support system that offers individually adjustable back support.

The leading independent manufacturer of high quality ergonomic office chairs

Unlike many manufacturers we are able to tailor our products for individual requirements, which is why we can offer seating for the larger, taller or shorter person. We recognise and know that one size may not fit all.

Are you sitting comfortably?

In the past people sat on static dining type chairs and some still do at home in front of their PC’s. However the evolution of the working chair has progressed through what we know as ‘typist’ and ‘executive chairs’ to the ergonomic solutions we see today based on principles established through worldwide research.
One of the most fundamental of the principles is activity. Our bodies were not designed to sit for long periods of time and are in fact better designed for standing than sitting. Dynamic seating can be achieved by changing activities periodically, however, for many people there is not enough variation in their work activity for this to be sufficient.
Status Seating provides dynamic seating by incorporating a number of features:

• System Therapod®. This system incorporates a unique flexible back that can be adjusted to each individual’s spinal contours and provides support as the person moves.
• A high quality ASM (advanced synchronised mechanism) that allows and encourages active movement and is available with different tension springs to better suit the weight of the user. All the Therapod mechanisms come complete with a seat slider to vary seat depth.
• A range of upholstered seat sizes utilising a layer of Vasco energy absorbing and temperature sensitive foam of top quality  – now enhanced even further with the introduction of ProBax® seating technology.
• Special builds to suit individual requirements where more variation is required.

Manufacturing Expertise

Skilled technicians and cutting-edge processes combine to ensure our products are perfect for purpose, whether it’s a bespoke one-off, or part of a mass-production run.

Philosophy

At Status, our philosophy is to manufacture superior quality, excellent ergonomic products to the highest levels of craftsmanship and provide you, the customer, with a consistent and reliable service.

Our continued aim is to maintain a high level of integrity with our commitment to quality at all levels throughout the supply chain and our commitment to the environment. This can be seen from our ISO 9001 and 14001 commitments and accreditation.

Environment

Our environmental policy is based on the simple mantra of reduce, reuse, recycle.

It’s not just about covering up the large carbon foot prints; it’s about reducing them. We have already reduced our environmental impact by using a 3 stage chrome effect powder coat finish as opposed to chromium plating and also using water based adhesive to eliminate solvent emissions.
