Sitting and standing stool | STITZ

Wilkhahn Stitz stool: the revolutionary seat that transforms comfort at work

Wilkhahn’s Stitz stool stands out as one of the most innovative solutions for energising posture, encouraging mobility and improving health at work and at home.

More than a stool, Stitz embodies a philosophy of movement, meeting the expectations of businesses, creative people, teleworkers or anyone wishing to break away from a sedentary lifestyle. Let’s find out in this full, in-depth text why this iconic chair is attracting so much attention and fully deserves its place in contemporary spaces.

A new generation of seating: between standing and sitting

The Stitz stool offers a unique experience: it’s neither about sitting nor standing, but about adopting an intermediate posture that frees the body while keeping it active. This innovative position places the user slightly propped up, which naturally straightens the pelvis, opens the ribcage and stimulates blood circulation.

This hybrid posture is scientifically recognised: a study conducted by the Centre for Health at the German University of Sport in Cologne shows that regular use of the Stitz improves coordination skills and strengthens the deep muscles. The natural movements generated by its design effectively combat postural fatigue, a common problem in traditional offices.

Detailed presentation of the Stitz: dimensions, design and materials

The Stitz stool is not only ergonomic: it is also designed with remarkable precision and rigorously selected materials.

A seat designed for comfort and durability

The Stitz is equipped with a black polyamide seat disc, designed to withstand intensive use. Its centre is made up of a cork insert, available in a natural waxed finish, or dressed in fabric or embossed leather depending on preference and style.

The round seat offers 360° use, allowing the user to swivel, recline and adjust their posture instantly.

A stable and flexible structure

The base rests on an elastomer bag filled with silica sand, a surprising but ingenious technical choice:

• The sand ensures an optimal centre of gravity,

• The Stitz remains stable even when tilted,

• The movement is fluid and encourages an active posture.

A black polyamide base completes the package to ensure sturdiness and longevity.

Intuitive, continuous adjustment

The circular handle under the seat activates the gas cartridge. The user continuously adjusts the height to adopt exactly the posture desired, whether semi-suspension, dynamic support or a more raised position.

It is this modularity that makes the Stitz an ideal solution for a wide variety of uses.

Why has the Stitz become a benchmark in ergonomic furniture?

Wilkhahn is recognised worldwide for its products geared towards innovation, ergonomics and aesthetics. With the Stitz, the brand has succeeded in creating an object that doesn’t fit into any traditional category: neither stool, chair nor simple accessory.

His success is based on:

• A keen understanding of human movement,

• A desire to liberate the body,

• Solid, durable manufacturing,

• Scientifically proven ergonomics.

Stitz delivers what few chairs can: active posture, long-term comfort and renewed energy for everyday tasks.
