The Bodyfurn® Lab Stool with Backrest brings elevated, backrest-supported seating to senior learning spaces. Its independent pivoting seat and back support natural movement, while the stable sled base helps students stay steady and comfortable through longer lessons.
The new Bodyfurn Lab Stool with Backrest allows students to shift their weight or turn to face a neighbour without losing support, since the seat and back move independently. This can help reduce fidgeting during practical lessons, group discussions or longer periods of desk-based work.
Paired with a 900mm high work surface such as the Endeavour Table, Base Curve Table or Base Rectangle Table, the stool suits tiered seating layouts, lecture-style teaching and staff or common room settings, where students and staff often work at a raised height for short or extended periods.
Built with a powder-coated steel sled base and a moulded, ventilated seat and back shell, the stool is designed for high-use school environments. It is available in one size, suited to senior height ranges, with seven shell colours and an optional black padded seat.
