Services

DSE Assessments

Our qualified assessors conduct comprehensive Display Screen Equipment evaluations to reduce workplace musculoskeletal risks. We identify ergonomic improvements for office setups, ensuring compliance with health and safety regulations. Services include on-site assessments, remote evaluations, and tailored equipment recommendations.

Bespoke Seating

Tailored seating solutions address individual postural needs through adjustable features like contoured backrests and inflatable supports. We offer made-to-measure chairs for pressure relief, mobility assistance, and specialised work requirements. Our process includes needs assessment, prototyping, and post-installation reviews.

Mobility Chairs

Designed for users with chronic conditions or temporary disabilities, these chairs feature electric height adjustment and secure braking systems. We supply VELA and Mercado Medic models that promote independence in domestic and professional environments. Assessments ensure optimal fit for users' physical capabilities.

Ergonomic Chairs

Our range includes kneeling chairs and dynamic seating options that encourage active sitting postures. These chairs distribute weight evenly to prevent spinal strain, with adjustable lumbar support and breathable materials. We provide guidance on setup and usage for maximum benefit.

Sit-Stand Desks

Space-saving workstations allow seamless transitions between sitting and standing positions. The DeskRise Mini model improves circulation while maintaining ergonomic keyboard positioning. We offer setup guidance to integrate these desks into existing workspaces effectively.

Awesome staff and service. Very knowledgeable, great range of chairs. Lucky enough to live in Sheffield so we were able to visit the shop months ago, try the chairs, and then order one. They assembled it for us. Can't recommend highly enough.

I recently placed an order for a new SPS3 electric sit-stand desk, pedestal, anti fatigue mat, Ergotron dual side by side monitor arm and Puls 8010 chair via my employer following a full DSE assessment. From my very first contact made, to present time, the customer service must be the best that I've experienced from any company to date.
An extremely personal and friendly experience from both the sales and delivery people (Mark, Sally and Dave). A very personal approach from a company which must be congratulated and recognised. The furniture itself is well made, smart and functional. I am a home
