    The Ergohuman Elite chair has previously carried this prestigious certification, and we continue to ensure that our chairs meet the highest standards for durability, safety, and performance.


    BS 5459 is an important benchmark for office furniture as it proves the strength, stability, and durability of our chairs for extended use. This certification is relevant, especially for chairs that will be used in 24/7 environments, such as control rooms, surveillance stations, and hospitals. All three Elite models now meet the rigorous criteria that ensure comfort and safety in any workspace.

    Why BS 5459 certification matterS

    The BS 5459 standard involves stringent testing procedures to ensure our office chairs can withstand the stresses of continuous use over long periods. The chairs are subjected to fatigue tests, stability checks, and dynamic strength evaluations to ensure they maintain performance even after years of heavy use.


    Extending the certification to our Enjoy and Mirus Elite chairs is a natural progression, especially as these chairs have been developed with the same focus on ergonomics, adjustability, and longevity. Whether you’re looking for 24-hour or general office use, the BS 5459 certification provides peace of mind that these chairs can meet the most demanding environments.


    By expanding our range of BS 5459-certified chairs, we now offer a wider selection of seating solutions that meet the highest standards of durability and safety, catering to customers with specific needs for high-performance seating.

    From BSI.knowledge:


    BS 5459-2 specifies performance requirements and test methods for the structural safety and stability of office pedestal seating when used by persons weighing up to 150 kg, or when used for up to 24 hours a day, including chairs for use with tables and desks higher than those specified in BS EN 527-1.
