Product catalog summary
Introduction
Dorso is a seating concept by Krug, designed to provide exceptional sitting comfort and support, reflecting a commitment to high ergonomic standards. The design, by Spanish designer Gabriel Teixidó, combines modern aesthetics with long-term comfort, a hallmark of European chair design.
Design and Ergonomics
The Dorso chair features a formed steel frame and dual-density injection molded foam, offering comprehensive support to the lumbar and thoracic regions. This design actively conforms to the user's body shape, surpassing the comfort provided by plastic or mesh systems. The chair's thin profile is a unique achievement in upholstered seating.
Features
The Dorso line includes various models such as mid-back and high-back chairs, with options for fixed or adjustable arms, and headrests. The chairs incorporate a synchro tilt mechanism with a single lever for tilt lock, anti-kickback release, and gas lift height adjustment. Metal elements are available in Silver Metallic and Polished Chrome finishes, with an optional headrest for enhanced neck support.
Guest Seating
Dorso offers an extensive range of guest seating options, including 4-legged, cantilevered, and caster models. These can be ganged for multifunctional applications. The guest seating complements the Dorso S Line, designed for management levels.
Standards and Certification
Dorso chairs exceed North American ANSI/BIFMA standards and are certified to European DIM seating standards, focusing on ergonomics. Each chair is a handcrafted creation, allowing for a wide range of fabric and leather combinations.
Conclusion
Dorso represents a new direction in workplace seating, combining advanced technology with a striking design to achieve superior comfort and support.
