Ergonomics
Schools and colleges gain many advantages by choosing ergonomic furniture:

• Children\students learn good posture,
• Suffer less muscle fatigue and back pain,
• Able to sit comfortably for long periods, and aids concentration.
  

Sebel seating systems can provide an inclined desk surface above elbow height,
with lumbar support which maintains lordosis.

Does it make a difference?
BBC's Watchdog healthcheck programme researched the impact of poor classroom furniture. Their research highlighted the many shortcomings of the furniture used by themajority of schools to-day, and attributed much adult back injury to the poor seating they had used in their youth. They also produced the frightening statistic which estimated that 25% of children already suffer with back problems.
SEBEL FURNITURE commissioned a three year report, surveying over 13,000 pupils, to gain a deeper understanding of ergonomics, with a special focus on children's needs.
