9to5 Seating is launching Tori, a new task series that combines performance and innovative design to deliver influence impact—empowering enterprises to express personality and point of view through color and design. Tori’s signature wraparound back design not only makes it impactful from the back or the front, it creates a natural curve for lumbar support with aesthetics—design with a purpose. Created for tasking in private offices, meeting or conference rooms, and work-from-home spaces, Tori has a warm, versatile style with soft curves and an elevated aesthetic.
Tori embodies today’s minimalistic style and comes in a variety of design conscious options, allowing organizations to use color to differentiate and define distinct spaces. Available as a mid or high-back and mesh back or fully upholstered, Tori’s versatility is a smart choice for outfitting an entire workspace or as a standalone signature seating solution. With multiple frame colors and thousands of fabric options, Tori is easily customizable using the 9to5 Seating Chair Designer.
Tori was imagined by award-winning Italian designer Claudio Bellini who engages users with comfort and a unique aesthetic that evokes balance. As a designer, Bellini seeks the harmony of beauty and efficiency in all his work, which he believes today’s professional environments demand. This is the second collaboration between 9to5 Seating and the designer. After the success of Bellini-designed Cavo, 9to5 Seating expanded the partnership.
The Tori series delivers exceptional comfort and ergonomics thanks to its unique signature curved back that provides natural designed-in lumbar support with optional adjustable lumbar also available. Tori’s ergonomic features include multiple synchro mechanisms, height-only or 4D arm adjustments, a seat slider, and accessibility options that support a wide range of users. Tori has a 300 lb. rating and offers a heavy duty option with 350 lb. ratings across multiple shifts.
“We’re excited to introduce an innovative new task series to our portfolio,” says Mark Mannon, VP of Product Development and Marketing, “With Claudio Bellini’s unique design, Tori delivers on style and ergonomics that truly elevates the user experience.”
In keeping with 9to5 Seating’s commitment to sustainability, Tori is BIFMA LEVEL 2 and GREENGUARD GOLD certified.
