Strato is an innovative classroom chair designed for children and young people from 2 years to young adults who are able to get in and out of their chair independently, but require minimal to moderate postural support when seated. Strato chair also facilitates excellent manoeuvrability for use between classrooms and is easy to adjust to different desk and working heights from room to room. Strato encourages a secure and stable forward leaning functional posture with an extended rather than flexed spine.

The uniquely contoured seat tilts forward to encourage anterior tilt of the pelvis for improved hip stability as well as trunk and lower limb alignment. The design, based on the concept of ‘straddle’ not ‘saddle’, also aims to enhance function and cognitive development. The Strato is now available with the optional electric hi-lo base (only available on sizes 3 - 5) allowing for tool and stress-free height adjustments and increased user weights.  It has a powerful actuator providing a smooth lifting and descending motion using the easy to use handheld remote.  The power box on the side allows for easy charging from any mains socket.
