Advanced Ergonomics

Zody features a patented Pelvic and Asymmetrical Lumbar (PAL) back system that allows users to set their own comfort throughout the day. The pelvic support helps to maintain the spine’s natural curvature, while the lumbar pad offers independent fine-tuning for support on either side of the lower back. This unique system—plus a host of ergonomic adjustments, the flexible frame, and the knit or mesh back—serves to enhance comfort and well-being.

Worldwide Appeal

Haworth’s Design Studio and ITO Design collaborated to blend the best of European and North American inventiveness within a fully ergonomic task chair that will always be in style. More than three million Zody chairs are in use globally today, a testament to the team’s focus on creating a chair that would appeal to and fit users from around the world. The light-scale aesthetic and options for knit and upholstery in a variety of colours mean Zody can take on any look—and work in any environment.
