Research and Development of Environmental Protection Office Chairs

Admin October 16, 2026

In terms of the research and development of environmental protection office chairs, some enterprises have achieved remarkable results, among which Sunon Technology stands out particularly, while Kailim Furniture and Lamex Office Furniture also have relevant concepts and practices.

Sunon Technology has made bold innovations and in-depth explorations in the research and development of environmental protection office chairs. Zhang Xujun, the General Manager of Sunon Research Institute, proposed the idea of applying recycled materials such as fishing nets and ropes to the manufacturing of office furniture. After years of technological iterations, the technology for producing new materials from marine waste has matured. In 2022, Sunon collaborated with the Swiss B4K studio to develop the application of marine recycled plastic environmental protection materials in the field of office furniture. After a year of research and development, they launched the Air Sense Health Chair - Hafu. The Hafu chair boasts numerous environmental protection and practical advantages. It has a stylish appearance and features a self-weight tilting design, allowing users to change their postures without manual adjustments, which is convenient and quick. The entire chair weighs only 12KG and is made entirely of recycled plastic environmental protection base materials. It adopts a chassis-less design and is molded in one piece, reducing material waste and energy consumption during the production process. While providing a comfortable sitting experience, based on an annual production of 5,000 chairs, it can reduce nearly 15 tons of marine waste per year, which is of great significance for marine environmental protection.

Kailim Furniture adheres to the concept of green development and advocates for healthy office work. During its development, it has taken the lead in obtaining certifications such as the ISO9001 quality management system, ISO14001 environmental management system, occupational health and safety management system, and China Environmental Labeling Product Certification. Although it has not explicitly mentioned specific research and development achievements in environmental protection office chairs, these certifications indicate that it pays attention to environmental protection and quality in its production management process, laying a solid foundation for the research and development of environmental protection office chairs and ensuring the possible environmental protection attributes of its products as a whole.

Lamex Office Furniture upholds the concept of environmental protection first. Its product research and development and production follow international environmental protection standards and have established a full-process quality control system. Although it has not explicitly mentioned specific research and development achievements in environmental protection office chairs, adhering to international environmental protection standards and full-process quality control means that it will minimize the impact on the environment during the production process of office chairs, paying attention to environmental protection factors from raw material selection to production and processing, and then to product delivery, providing conceptual and systematic support for the research and development of environmental protection office chairs.
