RH New Logic 220 Ergonomic Office Chair Product Details
RH New Logic 220 Ergonomic Office Chair is the result of a five-year-long process, spanning some 18’000 hours with the developers at Flokk collaborating with designers Jonas Stokke and Øystein Austad. The driving force has been to make the chair accessible and comfortable but also easy to manage and great to look at. Partners, architects and a number of users have provided crucial input during several stages of development, ensuring the chair meets every demand.
RH New Logic 220 has a high backrest and comes as standard with castors for carpeted floors and a five-star base in black lacquered aluminium.
The backrest has numerous notable features. The soft curvature helps to keep your back in an upright position while allowing shoulders and arms great freedom of movement. The adjustable backrest angle ensures support is provided in any position, with a built-in lumbar pump providing extra support for your lower back.
The adjustable seat depth ensures a good fit, providing the correct amount of leg support while helping improve blood circulation. Waterfall edges further enhance the comfort of the seat by reducing pressure on the underside of your thighs. The frictionless rocking action has been designed to ensure you are supported in all positions and along with the raised base allow your feet to remain firmly on the floor. The rocking action also encourages movement, which gets the blood flowing, keeping you energised and ache-free throughout the long day.
Adjustable armrests and neck rest are available as optional extras to enhance the comfort and support of the chair. The armrests are depth, width and height-adjustable, as well as turnable and provide support for your neck, shoulders and upper back. The neck rest provides support for the whole upper body when you need to lean back.
Sustainability and environmental efficiency are a big part of the new RH Logic. The chair is designed to be long-lasting and to make the lowest possible environmental impact throughout its life cycle, from raw material extraction to end-of-life. This is why all parts are easy to replace and disassemble, and every component is fully recyclable and free from toxic substances.
The statistics below provide insight into the sustainable and recyclable materials used for the chair.
- 69% recycled polypropylene = 145 shampoo bottles
- 94% recycled aluminium = 635 aluminium cans
- 19% recycled steel = 19 dinner knives
"Our products have a very long life span and some are very technical but we must consider how, when the time comes, these products can be repaired and repurposed. As designers, we have a responsibility to lead the way in creating a circular design culture."

Ergonomic Benefits
Ergonomic office chairs bring support, comfort and variation to the workplace, which is imperative with the increased number of hours we are spending sat down at work, commuting and at home.
An ergonomic office chair fundamentally promotes good posture offering support where it is needed with design and functionality to ensure the chair is appropriate to the user’s body shape and size and the tasks they perform. Poor posture can quickly develop and if allowed to continue unchecked, can lead to discomfort and injury. A correctly specified ergonomic chair will help correct bad posture and bad habits and play a part in ensuring postural problems don’t arise in the first place.
A properly specified and supportive chair enables you to work without stressing your body and encourages movement while keeping you fully supported. This leads to greater comfort and helps prevent aches, pains and fatigue. The benefits of this are numerous, but to name a few:
- Musculoskeletal injury prevention and rehabilitation
- Improved concentration levels
- Quicker and more accurate working practices
- Greater energy levels
- Improved mood and engagement
- Reduced risk of absenteeism
It is worth considering other ergonomic office furniture and accessories to help build a workstation that provides you with maximum benefit. However, workstation ergonomics can only go so far in promoting your health. Good postural habits and healthy work routines need to be introduced in order to achieve the greatest wellbeing.
