Market Share of Common Office Chairs
The market share of common office chairs varies across different segments and regions. In the global high-end ergonomic office chair market, Herman Miller and Steelcase are the dominant players, while in the Chinese ergonomic office chair market, Sihoo takes the lead, with China accounting for over 60% of the overall office chair market.
I. Global High-End Ergonomic Office Chair Market The high-end ergonomic office chair market is highly concentrated, with leading brands holding a dominant position. Herman Miller ranks first globally with an 18% share. Its products are known for their design innovation and ergonomic technology, widely used in high-end office settings. Steelcase follows closely, holding a 15% market share, and stands out in the North American and European markets with its modular design and customized services. Together, these two brands account for approximately one-third of the global high-end market, forming a duopoly.
II. Chinese Ergonomic Office Chair Market The Chinese ergonomic office chair market exhibits a pattern of 'one dominant player and multiple strong contenders'. Sihoo has been certified by Euromonitor International as the top seller in terms of both sales volume and revenue for four consecutive years (2022-2025). In 2025, its global sales exceeded 2.2 million units, covering 122 countries and regions, making it the absolute leader in the domestic market. Other brands such as Ergonor and Daboli also hold certain market shares but have not posed a substantial threat to Sihoo. It should be noted that there is no publicly available data to clearly define the market shares of other brands in the Chinese ergonomic office chair market, only confirming Sihoo's leading position.
III. Overall Chinese Office Chair Market In terms of scale, the Chinese office chair industry was valued at approximately RMB 10.185 billion in 2024, accounting for over 60% of the global market and making China the world's largest consumer of office chairs. Zhejiang Province, as a core production area, had a demand scale of approximately RMB 377 million in 2024, accounting for 3.7% of the national total demand, reflecting regional industrial agglomeration effects. In terms of price segments, low-end products (priced below RMB 236) accounted for 64.9% of sales volume but only 21.8% of sales revenue. In contrast, high-end products (priced above RMB 1,335) accounted for only 3.5% of sales volume but 34.2% of sales revenue, indicating that the high-end market offers greater profit margins but has a relatively limited consumer base.
IV. Global Market Growth Trends The global ergonomic office chair market is expected to grow from USD 11.59 billion in 2025 to USD 17 billion in 2030, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1%. This growth is primarily driven by the widespread adoption of remote work, increased demand for healthy office environments, and consumption upgrades in emerging markets. Asian markets such as China and India are expected to be the main growth engines.
