About Mesh Office Chairs
Refurbished mesh office chairs — breathable, supportive, and built for all-day comfort. This collection features professionally restored mesh task and ergonomic chairs from Humanscale and Orangebox, each inspected and warranted at our UK facility.
Why Choose a Mesh Chair?
Unlike foam or fabric upholstered chairs, mesh backrests promote constant airflow across the body — preventing heat and moisture build-up during long work sessions. Mesh also provides dynamic, distributed support: rather than a fixed rigid surface, it gives slightly in response to pressure, conforming to your back and providing consistent contact across the full sitting surface.
The chairs in this collection use high-specification mesh — Humanscale's Form-Sensing Mesh and the Orangebox Air's full-coverage seat and back — that maintains its tension and support characteristics over years of use. These are chairs built for commercial contract environments, not consumer retail.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are mesh chairs better than fabric chairs?
For all-day desk work, mesh is generally the preferred choice. The breathable weave prevents heat build-up and provides dynamic support. Fabric chairs retain more heat but can feel softer initially. High-quality contract mesh outlasts most fabric options.
Is mesh easy to keep clean?
Yes. Mesh is easier to keep hygienic than fabric — dust and particles don't embed in the weave in the same way. An important consideration in shared or high-turnover hot-desk environments.
Do refurbished mesh chairs come with a warranty?
Yes. All mesh chairs include a minimum 12-month warranty. Free UK mainland delivery included. See also London delivery options.
