For People Who Sit

MADE FOR PEOPLE WHO SIT FOR A LIVING

Think is the simplest, most streamlined embodiment of our understanding of people who sit — and how they sit throughout the day.

Our learnings are based on research and collaboration with universities, including the Technical University of Denmark, Michigan State University and the University of Vermont Back Research Center. To scientific studies, we add years of observational research in the workplace — with people who actually sit for a living.

Wellbeing in the Workplace

A MOVEMENT TOWARD WELLBEING

Today, we’re seeing a shift from traditional ergonomics to a more proactive solution that encourages healthy living… one that focuses on the physical, cognitive, and social needs of today’s workforce and understands how they’re related.

For example, movement throughout the day helps increase blood flow to the brain and body, keeping you refreshed and energized.

But what good is movement if it takes you away from your work? You also need to stay oriented to your work as you change postures.

Movement

MOVEMENT

People need different amounts and kinds of support for each region of the back; support that can change shape to follow the motion of the back.

Pressure map testing helped us design the back flexors to provide dynamic, continuous support for each region of your back, with no pressure points or unsupported zones. Support is evenly distributed as you move in the chair. It’s natural, fluid support that mimics your spine.

Orientation

ORIENTATION

People need to change their posture frequently to stay healthy and comfortable, and will do so if their chair allows them to recline, yet stay close to their work while reclining.

The Think chair’s weight-activated mechanism allows you to recline without leaving your ideal vision and reach zone. So you can lean back and be comfortable, and still reach your keyboard and desk.

Designing for Sustainability

We’re working toward better futures for the planet by recognizing our role in climate change and reducing our environmental impact, to help build a more sustainable and resilient world. We do this by making, sourcing and delivering products that help reduce our carbon footprint, designing for circularity, and choosing and using materials responsibly.

Think challenged what a traditional chair could do and how sustainable it could be with thinking of the circular economy: Designed with fewer parts for ease of recycling and even quicker disassembly, Think incorporates more recycled content making up to roughly a third of the chair’s weight. This also allows for easy reassembly.

Think has a third-party verified Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for complete lifecycle environmental impact transparency, has achieved BIFMA LEVEL® 3 certification, and indoor air quality (IAQ) certification through Scientific Certification Systems Indoor Advantage™ Gold. Think was the first product to receive Cradle-to-Cradle certification, and the first Steelcase product to receive a Declare label from the Living Building Challenge.
