KAB Seating is part of the American owned CVG group of companies with operating subsidiaries in the UK, Belgium, Australia, China and the United States of America. The KAB Seating headquarters in Northampton, England employs over 350 people and the facility covers an area of 21,000m2. The KAB Seating Work Chair range has been developed as a result of supplying vehicle seats for the transport, construction and agricultural industries. The characteristics necessary in a good drivers seat are equally as important in the workplace today. Particular attention has been paid to criteria laid down by the British National Back Pain Association when designing the Work Chairs. Back pain is the second biggest cause of absenteeism in the workplace and in the UK alone 70 million working days are lost annually. If you sit with a fixed posture all day you will inevitably end up with physical aches and pains. You have a responsibility to yourself to move. Movement varies the stress and strains placed on the body. KAB work chairs offer every individual a variety of adjustments to provide frequent posture changes
KAB Tilt System Regular posture change is made easy by the KAB Tilt System
Side mounted rotary controls Easy weight adjustment 50-150kg Full tension range in less than one turn Easy height and tilt adjustment ‘Anti-kick’ safety system 24 Hour use certified
