Swivel chair manufacturers and practitioners of occupational medicine rightly regard STABILUS as the pioneer in the development and manufacture of gas springs for ergonomic seating in the swivel chair sector.

Until the introduction of the gas spring in series production, swivel chairs were adjusted by means of spindles or detent mechanisms. The gas spring has performed this function to an ever increasing extent since the Sixties as a practical and compactly dimensioned adjusting element. More than 500 swivel chair manufacturers all over the world have been placing their faith for decades now in STABILUS gas springs, and every unit embodies the experience of more than 1 billion gas springs produced for all the different applications.
