Zody wins European Ergonomic Excellence Award

The FIRA Excellence Award recognizes companies who design and manufacture ergonomically outstanding products that meet and exceed the requirements of British and European standards. Products qualify for the award by meeting safety, comfort and sustainability criteria and are manufactured by a company with high quality standards and a solid environmental policy.

"Zody promotes dynamic postures and provides very good pelvic and lumbar support, a combination that is rarely found in a chair" said Levent Caglar, senior ergonomist at FIRA. "You feel especially comfortable in Zody. It gives a great sense of relaxation and control over how you sit."

Zody blends science-based comfort with international design and sustainability. This high-performance chair has advanced ergonomics that provide the user with maximum comfort and flexibility. Zody features PAL^TM, a revolutionary asymmetrical lumbar support system, allowing the user to increase support to either side of the lower back independently depending on preference. The chair also has four-way adjustable arms, a sliding seat, balanced three-point tilt mechanism and overall range of adjustments to accommodate 95 percent of the world’s population - offering a great range of flexibility in a single chair. Zody also offers a gel seat option that lowers pressure on the user’s lower hip area and reduces lower back muscle activity.

Designed for easy disassembly and following Haworth's design for environment protocol, the chair is made with up to 51 percent recycled content and up to 98 percent recyclable materials. Zody is also PVC-free, chrome-free and CFC-free.
