SITWELL® STEIFENSAND AG
Ergonomics and Individuality for Generations
The SITWELL® STEIFENSAND AG is a renowned German family business with a long tradition and profound expertise in the development and production of high-quality, ergonomic office chairs. For decades, the name Steifensand has stood for innovative seating solutions tailored to the individual needs and health of users.
History and Philosophy: The roots of the company run deep into the history of ergonomics. The father of the current owner Gernot M. Steifensand, Friedrich M. Steifensand, is considered the inventor of the first intervertebral disc swivel chair. This pioneering achievement was the starting point for ongoing research and development of new seating concepts. SITWELL® STEIFENSAND AG continues this tradition and aims to develop office chairs that are not only comfortable but also actively contribute to health and well-being in the workplace.
A central element of the company's philosophy is the individualization of the office chair. SITWELL® has recognized that people have different body shapes and needs. This led to the world novelty: the LADY SITWELL – the first office chair specifically for women – and shortly thereafter the MISTER SITWELL with a unique relief seat for men. These gender-specific approaches underscore the commitment to offering customized seating solutions.
Technological Innovation and Ergonomics: SITWELL® STEIFENSAND AG prides itself on its technical seating solutions that enable and combine three-dimensional sitting and synchronous movement sequences. This means that the chairs not only provide static support but also promote natural body movements, which is essential for the intervertebral discs and muscles. The products are continuously developed to meet the latest ergonomic findings and the demands of modern workplaces.
Sustainability and Responsibility: Sustainability is not just a trend for SITWELL® STEIFENSAND AG but a heartfelt concern. The company is aware of its responsibility towards people, animals, and the environment. In the production of office chairs, emphasis is placed on:
- Durable Materials: The use of particularly durable components extends the lifespan of the products and reduces the need for new acquisitions.
- Recycled Raw Materials: Wherever possible, recycled materials are used, e.g., recycled granulate for plastic components, to optimally exploit the recycling cycle.
- Freedom from Pollutants: The foams used are free from CFCs or other harmful substances. By purchasing a SITWELL® office chair, customers are also investing in climate protection and the preservation of nature.
Products and Range: The range of SITWELL® STEIFENSAND AG includes a wide variety of office chairs tailored to different requirements, from classic swivel chairs to executive chairs and special solutions for large and heavy individuals or specific health needs. All chairs are characterized by high-quality workmanship, ergonomic functions, and an appealing design.
Conclusion: The SITWELL® STEIFENSAND AG stands for quality "Made in Germany," many years of experience in seating research, and a consistent focus on ergonomics and sustainability. As a family business with a deep passion for individual seating solutions, SITWELL® significantly contributes to making the workday healthier, more comfortable, and more productive.
