ERGO TOP® / ERGO TOP® / ERGO TOP®

ERGO TOP® INCORPORATES THE 

CONCEPT OF DYNAMIC SITTING.

ERGO TOP® CONCRÉTISE L’IDÉE D’UNE 

POSITION ASSISE EN MOUVEMENT.

For the LÖFFLER swivel chairs, the ERGO TOP® technology with its 360° flexible 
seat – complementing the rather passively supporting synchronous mechanism 
– enables an active upright seating posture. The lateral movement of the seat 
also supports lateral inclination of the pelvis – in the sense of training for the 
neuromuscular stabilisation mechanisms of the spinal column.

This form of active and dynamic sitting not only trains back muscle, but also 
provides the intervertebral discs with nutrients whilst preventing false posture. 
Please therefore observe that you can initially get “muscle ache”.

ERGO TOP® was developed in close co-operation with the Chair of Ergonomics at 
the Technical University of Munich and was initially used for the mobile seating 
furniture series ERGO & Friends.

This was followed by the integration of the ERGO TOP® technology in all LÖFFLER 
swivel chairs, ERGO TOP®’s main area of application today.

The German interest group of physiotherapists specialising in back problems, 
IGR (Interessengemeinschaft der Rückenschullehrer/innen e. V.), recommends 
swivel chairs with ERGO TOP® technology without reservation. 

With ERGO TOP®, LÖFFLER’s swivel chairs meet the known traditional ergonomic 
requirements as required by DIN 4551 for swivel chairs or from the test mark 
“Ergonomics tested” from TÜV Rheinland or LGA Bayern. Moreover, all LÖFFLER 
swivel chairs meet the DIN EN 1335 1-3 standard for office work chairs.

En équipant les chaises pivotantes LÖFFLER, la technologie ERGO TOP®  
génère ainsi une posture bien droite avec son assise mobile à 360° (en complé-
ment du soutien plutôt passif du mécanisme synchrone). La mobilité latérale de 
l’assise favorise en outre une inclinaison latérale du bassin, faisant travailler les 
mécanismes neuromusculaires stabilisant la colonne vertébrale.

Une posture assise active et dynamique sollicite la musculature du dos, 
contribue à une bonne nutrition des disques intervertébraux et prévient 
les mauvaises positions. Il est possible que vous ressentiez des courbatures 
lors des premières utilisations de votre chaise.

La technologie ERGO TOP® a été développée en étroite coopération avec la 
Chaire d’ergonomie de l’Université Technique de Munich et a d’abord été  
appliquée à la gamme de sièges mobiles ERGO & Friends.

Le principe ERGO TOP® a ensuite été intégré dans tous les sièges de bureau  
pivotants LÖFFLER, principal domaine d’utilisation d’ERGO TOP® aujourd’hui.

L’association allemande des éducateurs du dos (IGR, Interessengemeinschaft  
der Rückenschullehrer/innen e. V.) recommande sans réserve les chaises  
pivotantes équipés de la technologie ERGO TOP®. 

Les chaises pivotantes LÖFFLER équipées d’ERGO TOP® répondent aux  
exigences de l’ergonomie traditionnelle, telles qu’elles sont stipulées 
par la DIN 4551 pour les chaises pivotantes ou par le label « Ergonomie 
testée » du TÜV Rheinland et de l’institut de contrôle de Bavière LGA.  
De plus, toutes les chaises pivotantes LÖFFLER satisfont à la norme  
DIN EN 1335 1-3 relative aux chaises de bureau.
