Starfish platform integrated in office chair
The office chair industry
The market for office chairs har grown steadily in recent years, mainly due to increased awareness of ergonomics and health in the workplace. For those working in office is the right chair essential for both personal health and productivity.
The competition on the office chair market is intense even though the market is growing. Several players are offering their own brands and it has become more and more important to differentiate by offering unique features, combined with high quality and attractive prices.
According to a report by Grand View Research, the global office chair market was estimated to be worth approximately 5.5 billion dollars in 2020 and is expected to grow with 5 percent per year from 2021 to 2028.

Advantages with integrating the Starfish platform in office chairs
1. Enhanced Comfort Through Improved Micro Blood Flow
Sitting for prolonged periods can reduce blood flow, leading to discomfort and fatigue. The Starfish platform is designed to stimulate micro blood circulation, ensuring better tissue health and reducing pressure points. Enhanced blood flow keeps the user comfortable and focused, directly contributing to improved productivity.
2. Effective Heat and Moisture Regulation
A common challenge with traditional office chairs is heat buildup and moisture retention, which can lead to discomfort and distraction. The Starfish platform incorporates advanced ventilation properties, promoting airflow and reducing skin wetness. This ensures a balanced skin temperature and prevents the discomfort caused by excessive sweating or overheating, supporting sustained focus throughout the workday.
3. Proven Impact on Productivity
Research highlights that maintaining optimal thermal and circulatory conditions significantly enhances workplace performance. Employees seated on ergonomically designed chairs with superior blood flow and moisture management features are less prone to discomfort, boosting their efficiency and overall well-being.
