SOKOA CHAIR CENTRE LTD.

Home & Office Furniture

Lagos, Ghana

With the increasing utilization of technology in the office, people are spending more and more time seated at their place of work, undertaking an increasing variety of tasks. The effects of this type of lifestyle are readily apparent as more and more people are becoming obese and suffering from the related health issues that are associated with persons who are confined to a desk.

Another less-publicized problem from such a sedentary lifestyle is the related health issues that are derived directly from all those hours in that uncomfortable office chair that you have to endure everyday. Aches, pains, back problems and more can come about over time from an office chair that just isn’t suitable for you.

Back problems can be caused by chairs that don’t offer adequate back support; these problems can stay with you for a lifetime and severely affect your daily activities, thus reducing your quality of life.

Proper back support from your office chair is essential. Thus seating must fulfill the demand for greater flexibility placed on the modern office chair while offering a large number of options to adapt to its user: different backrest sizes, armrests, bases... etc. A quality armrest can help with tasks like reading and writing, taking pressure and tension off the neck and shoulders. In addition, their design and colours should adapt to the office environment.

Truly, a working instrument participating in productivity and to the reduction of absenteeism, office chairs must respond to the imperative of being comfortably seated, by offering angle adjustments for the most favourable working position for all morphologies.

Chair design considers intended usage, ergonomics, as well as non-ergonomic functional requirements such as size, stackability, foldability, weight, durability, stain resistance and artistic design. Intended usage determines the desired seating position. "Task chairs", or any chair intended for people to work at a desk or table, can only recline very slightly; otherwise the occupant is too far away from the desk or table.

Ergonomic designs distributes the weight of the occupant to various parts of the body. When seated in the chair, your weight should be evenly distributed on the seat pan, which should have what’s known as a rounded, or waterfall edge for the seat front. You should be able to slide your fingers between your knees and the seat’s front edge as this posture will avoid reducing circulation to your legs and feet.

Choosing the correct office chair will help you avoid health problems that could occur from the daily use of a poorly designed office chair. Various personalized products as well as follow up services will be available, with each product carrying a 3-year warranty. 

In addition, a proprietary technology for producing office seating; the C-GEX SYSTEM is used in the local production of the chairs to ensure efficiency and cost savings. To this end, the company has been paying Royalty per unit of chair produced using this technology. Sokoa Chair Centre is the only African Company so far allowed to use this proprietary technology for production.
