Why talk about office chair accessories? Because, for every office goer, their office chair is their best friend. One cannot overlook the importance of a comfortable and sleek office chair when it comes to setting up our office furniture essentials. An ergonomic office chair will help you in optimizing your work productivity. Apart from that, an aesthetically pleasing office chair can amplify the appeal of your room/cabin also.

When we talk about essential office chair accessories, there are a lot of options to choose from. If you have ever stumbled upon the question of choosing the best office chair accessories, we are here to give you five useful pointers.

Essential Office Chair Accessories You Must Know

  • Accurate Padding

Comfort is the buzzword whenever we shop for our office furniture essentials. One must ensure that his/her office chair comes with sufficient padding. Good padding at the back of a chair ensures accurate posture and provides lumbar support. One must also ensure that the padding is made out of memory form. This will ensure maximum comfort.

Apart from padded back support, armrests should also have sufficient padding. In fact, well rest shoulders and elbows are essential while working.

  • Mats

Mats are one of the most important office chair accessories. One might want to avoid scratching and staining of the office floor due to placement or movement of office chairs. In order to avoid these scratches, chair mats are a must. The chair casters can damage the office flooring. Consequently, one might even think about substituting the flooring all together. Chair mats are an inexpensive and more viable option to avoid that.

  • Back Support Mesh

If someone is already suffering from a back problem, proper lumbar support is very important. If a mesh is placed at the back of an office chair, it provides additional lumbar support and improved ventilation. A mesh is attached to the office chair with a strap to ensure stability.

This accessory is ideal for people who wish to achieve more back support but not through the foam.

  • Cupholder

Most of the people like sipping hot cups of tea, coffee, or green tea while working. Hence, a cup holder can be a very useful accessory. You can attach the cupholder to one or both armrests as an extension. The cup holder accessory usually comes with straps and hence, we can put them on or take them off as per discretion.

Before choosing this accessory, one must always check if the accessory is lightweight. A heavy cup holder accessory can be intrusive.

  • Heating/Cooling Pads

For all those who are looking for maximum comfort while working, heating/cooling pads are a very useful accessory. These pads can be placed at the seat of your office chair. They provide additional support as well as temperature control. You can check your requirements and accordingly chose the heating or cooling pad for your office chair.

  • Footrest

A footrest is another important essential office furniture accessory. While sitting on the office chair, one must make sure that their feet rest flat on the ground. If that is not happening, the design or your office chair can be detrimental to your health. If the height of your office chair cannot be adjusted, it is advisable to instil a footrest at the bottom of your office chair. One must make sure that their feet rest comfortably on the footrest. Another important point to note is that the footrest should be wide enough to accommodate your feet.

To summarize, one can choose from a wide range of office chair accessories to suit their needs and requirements. Just like our office chairs, the rest of our essential office furniture accessories should also aid comfort and utility.
