Heavy Duty Office Chairs — Built for Strength, Designed for Comfort
The Heavy Duty Office Chair, because of its grand stature, makes a big and stylish statement. The heavy base weighs in at 23kg — it’s a solid piece of office furniture that can hold a person weighing up to 170kg. Ideal for those who are a little on the heavier side and need furniture built to last.
So What Does “Heavy Duty” Mean?
The Heavy Duty Office Chair has a bit of a double meaning to us. Not only is this office chair designed for bigger and heavier people, but it also looks bigger and heavier in itself. And this is not necessarily a bad thing.
An office chair says a lot about a person. There is nothing bolder than a small person occupying a solid-looking chair, especially if it’s really comfortable. Chrome base and arms provide extra support (black nylon also available).
Three Heavy Duty Chair Models
We have 3 types of Heavy Duty Office Chairs in our Furniture Catalogue. All chairs come with features to support extra weight and conform to ergonomic standards to prevent back pain. They also all come with 4×4 wheels for enhanced stability.
