Swivel chair in modular design

Regardless of how and where work is done – the working environments, tasks and needs are quite different. Consequently, the requirements placed on the features and the individual needs for the perfect office chair also vary. Just how practical, then, would a swivel chair be that could satisfy everyone's wishes?

The new se:kit takes a special approach, as it follows a modular concept and focuses on comfort. The user decides how they would like the swivel chair to be configured and which components they would like to have – freely, based on the motto “less is more” or, sometimes, “more is more”. What the chair always comes with, however, is seating with the best comfort. And all that without compromising on design and aesthetics.

Design your own unique Sedus product – after all, maximum comfort requires customised solutions.

Our configurator guides you step by step through the various options and customisation possibilities of the product. At the end of the configuration process, you can request a non-binding quote, download images and planning data and test the product directly in the room using augmented reality.

You can call up your personal configuration again at any time using your personal PIN code – just save it, come back later and make adjustments. Let's go!

Due to its modular concept, se:kit offers a greater variety of configuration options. From the neck support to the castors, from the membrane colour or the full upholstery to the mechanism – nearly all components can be individually selected and put together to create the swivel chair of your dreams.

Ergonomics and function

Comfortable seating combines elaborate function and ergonomic aspects. With the further development of our time-tested dorsokinetics, we have implemented a concept that combines both freedom of movement and active support. The flexible element provides mobility for the backrest, allowing it to follow the user and provide support with their every movement.

It follows the most stringent requirements, is state of the art and allows comfortable seating for everyone. With the new office chair standard DIN EN 1335-1:2023 Typ A, se:kit meets the requirements for a diverse user base and their various demands.

Strong in the back

The backrest with the flexible element offers freedom of movement in all directions.

Sedo-Lift III

The robust seat height adjustment (30-year guarantee) is virtually wear-free, even when used by a variety of users. In its lowest position, it ensures a soft, back-friendly cushioning when sitting down.

Seat upholstery

For additional seating comfort, the comfort seat with a height of 65 mm is optionally available (standard height: 55 mm).

Visitor chair

The matching visitor chair is available with an upholstered or membrane back, with or without armrests, as a cantilever chair or 4-legged frame (with castors or glides).

The upholstery fabric runs beautifully over the edge of the backrest to round off the design

The height-adjustable armrests are available in six different designs or, alternatively, users can opt not to have them at all

The height-adjustable, swivelling neck support provides relief for the head and neck

Keeping the swivel chair in order – with the coat hanger, a jacket or coat can be neatly stowed away

The backrest is available in three heights as a membrane or fully upholstered version

Mechanism in three versions – to suit individual preferences it can be configured up to 180 kg user weight

Sustainable through and through:

se:kit stands out with its high recycling content and excellent recyclability due to its removable and interchangeable components.

Colourful and individual

Due to the mix-and-match character as well as the wide variety of choices, se:kit can be individually configured – so that everyone can have their favourite version.

Sedus colour schemes

A harmonious environment contributes significantly to well-being and productivity. Thoughtfully designed furnishings, pleasant material and fabric combinations as well as the choice of colour accents optimally complement the overall appearance. The four colour schemes Smart Balance, Urban Living, Soft Being and Multi Creation can be used to design working environments and suitable se:kit settings.

Sustainable production

We purchase around two thirds of the steel, aluminium and wood which we require to produce our products in Germany and almost all the rest from Europe, this helps us to avoid long delivery routes whilst, at the same time, boosting the local economy. We use materials which have been tested and assessed with respect to potentially adverse effects on human health and the environment.
