Its genius lies in its purpose. Even at first glance you can tell the difference between the swopper and conventional office chairs. Its unique design does away with all traditional features such as armrests and headrests, which prevent motion and make you unhealthy in the long run. In contrast, thanks to its patented 3D technology the swopper, the world‘s first 3D active seat, supports and encourages motion when sitting and frequent change of sitting positions. The benefits are obvious for the swopper user: goodbye to backache, tiredness and tension, hello to physical fitness, feeling good and enhanced performance.
Convincing. Out of conviction. The swopper is already strengthening the backs of numerous users – keeping their muscles fit while sitting. The vertical bounce given by the spring and the flexible sideways movement provided by the 3D motion element keep your intervertebral discs, ligaments and joints in good shape. The convex seat maintains the natural ‘S’ curve of the spine and prevents pressure points at seat edges. All this combined stimulates the blood circulation, encourages motion and is overall a healthier option. This is precisely what we are striving for. Since these special functions cannot be provided by conventional components, we develop the technology and all the components ourselves in-house.
High time for more motion! Conventional office chairs don’t address the daily lack of motion in the office. On the contrary, most of them make you assume a rigid and unhealthy posture. We call this the “sitting trap” – because sedentary occupations frequently lead to backache, cardiovascular diseases and obesity. Bad posture can cause tension. Pressure points hinder circulation of the blood. The risk of chronic diseases – including diabetes – increases. Lack of motion also leads to muscular atrophy. The list is long. Even regular exercise cannot undo the damage done by prolonged sitting. While we can’t eliminate sitting, the remedy is more motion in daily office life.
The Revolution of Ergonomics. 3D Ergonomics. Classic ergonomics do not combat the lack of motion in the workplace. That is why we developed the swopper. The first active seat that moves in three dimensions. The swopper‘s unique 3D ergonomics encourage the intuitive movements of the human body. The principle is as simple as it is ingenious: the chair follows the movement of the body. The result - natural sitting, controlled movement up and down combined with posture-optimising motion - sideways, backwards and forwards.
Our success is in motion. If you observe children, you will see that there is hardly a time when they are still. Movement is in the very nature of the human being. It is the long periods of sitting and standing – in school, at work and in the car – that puts the body into a straightjacket of motionlessness, which we pay for at a very high price: our health. Therefore, since 1997, aeris has devoted itself to revolutionising standing and sitting at the workplace. Our philosophy is as simple as it is effective: more motion, in three dimensions. We call that 3D ergonomics. For our customers this means better health, more motivation and higher productivity. And success proves us right. Be it the swopper, muvman, 3Dee or oyo – our products set new benchmarks and have catapulted aeris into the top 100 of the most innovative small and medium-sized German businesses.
