Product Details
Active sitting with upper-body support added – CoreChair Elite runs the same patented, individually adjustable motion-resistant "Core" mechanism as the rest of the range, tilting 14° in any direction. What Elite adds is a movable back pad, connected to the pelvic support by a vertical spine, so the upper body is supported while the pelvis stays stable.
The seat and back move as one coordinated system – Mobility of the seat and pelvic support is harmonised with the height-adjustable back pad, so the spine can rotate and stretch freely while the pelvis remains held. The two wide sections of the pelvic support also give the elbows something to rest against when leaning back.
Key Highlights:
Patented "Core" 3D mechanism – seat tilts 14° in any direction
Movable back pad on a vertical spine – upper-body support without locking the pelvis
Height-adjustable back pad
Individually adjustable motion resistance
Wide seat height range — 43 to 57 cm on a single gas lift
8-year warranty – four times the length carried by conventional task seating
The active-sitting principle, with a back to lean on – Elite is the version of CoreChair for people who want the movement but are not willing to give up back contact entirely. The pelvic support does the stabilising work; the back pad follows the spine rather than fixing it.
Pneumatic seat height adjustment: 43–57 cm from one gas lift — the widest range in the CoreChair range
14° multidirectional seat tilt: Movement in every direction, not a single reclining axis
Adjustable motion resistance: Set how much the chair moves under you
Height-adjustable back pad: Positions upper-body contact where your spine needs it
Adjustable pelvic support: Holds the pelvis forward-rotated and stable
Integrated footrest: A bracing point for active sitting

Why it matters
