Swippo by Nitzbon
Ergonomic Saddle Stool Made in Germany
Swippo is an innovative and ergonomic saddle stool developed and handcrafted by the Hamburg-based Nitzbon Aktiengesellschaft, a family business that has been in operation for over 45 years. The company Nitzbon is known for its high-quality therapy and ergonomic furniture and equipment.
Product Description of the Swippo Saddle Stool:
The Swippo is designed to promote dynamically upright and healthy sitting. Its unique design automatically brings the user into an orthopedically corrected sitting posture, allowing for a physiological body posture even without a backrest. This constantly activates and strengthens the back and abdominal muscles, making sitting a form of exercise and preventing back problems and tension. The Association of Back School Teachers (IGR e.V.) and orthopedists explicitly recommend the Swippo.
Key Features:
- Ergonomic Design: The saddle-like seat shape promotes an upright sitting posture and reduces disc pressure on the lower spine. It encourages greater mobility while sitting and rolling.
- Dynamic Sitting: The chair forces the body to move and be active, promoting circulation, activating core muscles, and preventing tension and fatigue.
-
Adjustability:
- Height Adjustment: Continuously adjustable, typically in a range of about 54 cm to 88 cm (depending on the model).
- Tilt Adjustment: Continuously adjustable seat tilt of up to 14 degrees via two adjustment levers.
- High-Quality Materials: The Swippo is made from durable and robust materials. The seat blank is made from environmentally friendly material, enabling the recyclability of all chair parts.
- Cover Options: Available with covers made of synthetic leather (standard or PVC-free) or microfiber. These covers are generally disinfectant-resistant, durable, lightfast, abrasion-resistant, and easy to clean.
- Casters: Equipped with high-quality, smooth-running chair casters (Ø 6.5 cm) suitable for hard and soft floors.
- Quality "Made in Germany": Production has been taking place since 2003 in their own manufactory in Hamburg, ensuring high processing quality and durability.
- Optional Equipment: Some models offer additional features such as a 360° rotatable arm and back support or foot control.
The Swippo combines functionality and contemporary design and is an investment in health and well-being in the workplace.
