Aalborg. For the finest and most innovative education furniture.
Shell Chair encourages an ‘open’ seating position to ease pressure on the lower back and reduce the propensity for spinal curvature. Good posture improves concentration, reduces discomfort and helps to improve productivity. Available in a number of fixed and adjustable heights, Shell Chair works perfectly works with Aalborg’s Class Desk. Aalborg Saddle Stools also encourage good posture. They are available on adjustable height gas lifts, or other fixed height supports with or without footrests. Especially suited to tasks requiring repeated movement, they help prevent excessive strain whilst twisting and encourage a balanced, upright posture ideal for working at computers. Class Desk is designed to complement Aalborg’s Saddle Stool and Shell Chair. The top has an adjustable slope, shown to aid both posture and handwriting. The footrest, when used with a matching Aalborg chair means that the combination can cater for a range of pupil sizes within the BS EN 1729 standard. A hook for bag storage under the desk centre saves floor clutter. Damage to desk surfaces – either from marker pens or vandalism – is often costly to rectify so Class Desk has a special low cost surface which can be discretely removed for replacement. The desk moulding is designed to also be used as the frame fixing and tilt adjusting underside for a larger surface, providing a basis for pagination or for a wider frame useful to wheelchair users or can also be used for art room drawing boards, for professional artists or architects.
