Our R&D

The simple seat and the Goldilocks test.

“The act of standing from a seated position is a physical task performed regularly throughout a day
and is one of the most important measures of physical function.”

~ Rodosky, Andriacchi, & Andersson, 1989.

A powerful proposition, isn’t it?

We invest in research & development

As Australia’s leading aged care furniture makers, our business is built around the simple seat.

We asked ourselves, how can we make a chair for aged care that is, quite simply, the best in the market?

This question led us to conduct a study on seating in aged care with the Queensland University of Technology (QUT) People and Systems (PAS) Lab, Schools of Design and Nursing.

That study has enabled us to create chairs that, as Goldilocks said, are “just right”.
