Huawei's Office Chairs

Admin October 19, 2026

Huawei has used various types of office chairs at different stages, including wooden chairs, fabric-covered chairs, leather sofa chairs, ergonomic chairs, etc., with different opinions on specific brands and models.

In the early days, the office chairs used by Huawei employees were relatively simple, including wooden chairs and fabric-covered chairs. As the company developed, Ren Zhengfei proposed that employees should use sofa chairs. After 2000, Huawei employees began to use leather sofa chairs with casters, which to a certain extent improved the comfort of employees during office work.

In mid-2015, Huawei uniformly replaced its office chairs with ergonomic chairs. Regarding the specific brands and models of ergonomic chairs used, there are different opinions. One view is that they are the You series from Ergohuman. This series of office chairs conforms to ergonomic design, fully considering various postures and needs of the human body during office work, and can provide good support for employees. At the same time, it has passed the certification of the World Environmental Organization, with a recyclability rate as high as 97%, reflecting the concept of environmental protection. It has also passed the BIFMA test. BIFMA is a testing standard formulated by the Business and Institutional Furniture Manufacturers Association in the United States. Passing this test means that the chair has reached a relatively high level in terms of quality and safety.

Another view is that they are the UE Furniture Mengke ergonomic chairs. The backrest of these chairs conforms to the natural curvature of the human spine and comes with a lumbar support, which can effectively reduce the pressure on the waist of employees during long hours of office work. The front end of the seat cushion is in a waterfall shape, which can reduce the pressure on the thighs. They adopt a wire-controlled self-adaptive chassis, which can be locked when the recline angle reaches 135ยฐ, and also have a pull-out footrest, which is convenient for employees to use during rest.

In addition, there is information indicating that companies such as Huawei and Tencent use Yichao office chairs. However, the reference information does not elaborate on the specific details and characteristics of the use of this chair in Huawei. Overall, Huawei has continuously updated and optimized its office chairs according to employee needs and the company's philosophy at different stages of development.
