Torasen Orthopaedica 100 Series
The 100 Series has a wide back for a more encompassing sit, making it a good option if you want more room through the shoulders and upper back than a standard-width chair gives you. Like the 200 and 300 Series, the outer back is upholstered rather than plastic.
Unlike the rest of the Orthopaedica range, the 100 Series is available with a headrest option, giving extra support for your neck and shoulders and letting you sit back in a reclined position comfortably when you need a break from upright working.
