The Aeron chair is one of the very few chairs that will reduce the effects of back pain. Without question, no chair is a cure for back pain, however the Aeron task chair enables users to adopt comfortable and healthy postures every time.

The Aeron chair excels in relation to the reduction of back pain and promotion of good posture with two particular features, the Pellicle mesh back and seat, and the lumbar pad.

The Aeron’s mesh covered back is a very clever design feature. In all postures the mesh supports the spine and the pelvis, actively adjusting to achieve consistent support without pressure points. Giving the correct level of support as tasks vary.
