To address this problem, KOKUYO pioneered the innovative chair, “360° Gliding Chair ing”, which keeps a correct sitting posture by its 360° freely moving.

Through this exhibition, KOKUYO would like everyone to experience the state-of-the-art functionalities and innovative concept of “360° Gliding Chair ing”. Moreover, KOKUYO hopes that this will catapult the growth of the business in the world-wide market.

The feature of “360° Gliding Chair ing”

The innovative “360° Gliding Chair ing” mimics the hip-strengthening action of sitting on a balance ball. Its 360° freely moving joints move according to the fine movement of the human body. To balance chair’s movement, the body naturally and perfectly maintain a correct sitting posture. This freedom of movement keeps the hips, waist and back muscles active while seated. Body pressure is also dispersed with the movement, reducing strain on the body.
