We Are Born to Move.
There are more than 360 joints and about
700 skeletal muscles in the human body, and as they move,
they enhance the performance of the nerve cells.
In short, the human body is built to move.
KOKUYO’s ‘ing’ was born out of this mechanism.

The New ‘360 degree Gliding Sensation’
Known as the ING effect.

Beneath the seating surface of ing is equipped with a gliding mechanism which freely moves 360 degrees according to the subtle movement of the human body.
It follows a forward tilt and backward tilt, up to left and right and diagonal twists,
by a combination of two layers of mechanisms. It brings out natural movements of human beings and activates the body and brain.

Introducing

AIRFORT

Created and Designed by KOKUYO in-house designer; Kazutaka Oki. AIRFORT is packed with innovative design with advanced functionality. The prominent aspect of the chair is the Air-controlled lumbar support and heat dispersing seat cushioning. These functions pave the way for a new era of comfort and style.

Air Controlled Lumbar Support Technology

The key component of that functionality is its concealed adjustable lumbar support air bag. It allows the shape of the seat back to be customised to suit the shape of the user’s spine. Those with more pronounced spinal curvature can inflate the air bag to increase support to their lumber region. The customised support relieves fatigue over long periods of sitting. AIRFORT provides the support where you need it when you need it.

AWARDS

Ultimate Lumbar Support

The Air technology assist in pumping air from the lumbar bar that inflate the shape of the lumbar bar to give a better support at the lower lumbar area. The air could also release by pulling the lever backwards to release the air to find your most comfortable support.

Advanced Seat Cushion

A seat cushion composed of riveted urethane covered in three-dimensional mesh disperses the body’s heat on the seat maximising comfort for users, thus making AIRFORT the ideal choice for today’s demanding business enviro

EFFECT
The essential part of while working, one become healthy both mentally and physically.

To do that, it is necessary to move our body. By moving joints and skeletal nodes,
the nerve cells are made to work well. In the state of sitting,
“ing” draws out the natural movement of the body.

Fits to various spine shapes without adjustment.
The natural spine S-curve is made at the pelvic angle.
ing’s gliding mechanism follows the natural pelvic angle of the seated person and does not require adjustment of the lumbar support.

Always follow and dynamically distribute body pressure.
Gliding mechanism that moves 360 ° back and forth, left and right, always follows the movement of the body while gliding.
This way no body pressure concentrates on one point but the pressure is evenly distributed accordingly.

Respond to physical differences without adjustment.
So that everyone can sit comfortably.

ing adopts a “front free tilt” in which the front part of the seating surface is bent according to the size and the posture of the person sitting.

Even physically small persons with a smaller spines are less pressed against the back of the thigh, so adjustment of the depth of the seating surface is not necessary.
