Värmländsk
chair manufacturing
for more than 35 years
We are a family-owned company and we are proud that for more than 35 years we have created chairs that have been internationally recognized for their comfort and ergonomic characteristics. All our manufacturing, from cutting, sewing, cladding and assembly, takes place in our factory in Sunne in Värmland.
In 2020, Support Design AB got a new owner, CEO Cecilia Gimmersta Stove. She brings new ideas and visions for office furniture at a time when many workplaces are rapidly changing.
“I am incredibly happy to have had the opportunity to acquire Support Design and to continue running the company in the family-oriented spirit it already embodies. I love the craftsmanship and am very much looking forward to further developing these premium chairs and making them even more accessible in a global market. My vision is to create beautiful chairs that make us feel truly good and that can contribute to an increasingly circular economy.”
How do you feel at work?
These are our watchwords at Support Design. Every day we ask ourselves how we can help our customers to sit well and work creatively, and still go home with energy and a happy body. We have a long background in ergonomic thinking and the desire to make your working day easier. Sustainability is our focus, both in terms of how we manufacture our products in Värmland and how we make our bodies last long and stay happy at work.
What sets us apart from other manufacturers of office chairs is the unique seat and backrest of the Support Chair, which was designed by Bruno Mathsson in the 1970s on our behalf. As the pioneering designer he was, he drew inspiration from the human body’s needs and functions to create ergonomic chairs that allow you to work all day long. Our product range also includes a broad portfolio of saddle chairs developed in-house.
Our products comply with the MDR - Medical Device Directive
Support Designs’ chairs are registered as medical devices and meet all requirements under the EU’s Medical Device Regulation (MDR, EU 2017/745). The MDR is the legislation that governs how medical devices are to be developed, manufactured, and inspected within the EU. It sets high standards for safety, traceability, and documentation to ensure that the products are safe for use in healthcare, health, and medical settings.
