Frequently asked questions
What makes the KAB Controller suitable for 24-hour use?
The KAB Controller is specifically engineered for demanding environments like surveillance hubs and emergency call centres. Unlike standard office chairs, it is 24-hour certified and hand-built with a robust steel frame and a 30-stone rated gas lift. Its high-density, body-contoured cushions are designed to maintain their shape and support through continuous shift work without degrading.
What is the weight capacity of the KAB Controller chair?
The KAB Controller is a heavy-duty seating solution rated for users up to 190kg (approximately 31 stone). It features a reinforced KAB 5-star black aluminium base and a heavy-duty gas lift to ensure complete stability for larger users in intensive, around-the-clock environments.
How does the KAB Tilt System benefit the user?
The proprietary KAB Tilt System encourages "active sitting" by allowing for regular posture changes. It features side-mounted rotary controls that let you adjust the tilt tension to match your body weight (from 50kg up to 200kg). This ensures the chair provides the right amount of resistance whether you prefer a locked position or a "free-float" rocking motion to reduce spinal compression.
What is the difference between the Whiteline and the standard Black Leather Controller?
The KAB Controller Whiteline is the "deluxe" version of the range. While it shares the same heavy-duty internal components and 190kg weight rating, it features premium black leather with distinctive white contrast stitching. This gives the chair a high-end, executive appearance suitable for prestige offices and senior management suites.
Does the Whiteline model require special maintenance?
No. Despite its more decorative appearance, the Whiteline uses the same robust, high-quality leather as the standard model. It can be easily maintained with a damp cloth and occasional leather conditioner to keep the upholstery supple and the white stitching looking sharp.
Which KAB Controller model is right for my workplace?
The right choice depends on your environment and maintenance preferences. The KAB Controller All Fabric is ideal for general offices where breathability and colour choice are priorities. The KAB Controller Black Leather is the best option for 24/7 shared environments where hygiene and easy "wipe-down" cleaning are essential. The KAB Controller Whiteline is recommended for executive or high-end office spaces where you want the legendary KAB durability combined with a more sophisticated, tailored aesthetic.
