The RISE series features an intentional ergonomic design that focuses on workspace wellness, with a tapered back design that supports intuitive mobility throughout the upper body, even in compact spaces. For users requiring less back support, the supportive lumbar pillow is easily removable from the back, and easily re-inserted at any desired time. RISE comes in a standard body-balance synchro with seat-slide control or active tilt control, making the RISE series super user-friendly with full ergonomic functionality. The arms come in a standard fixed option or a 6D adjustable option for a fully ergonomic experience. The RISE 6D arms allow users to customize their sitting experience with arm height adjustment, width adjustment, and armrest rotation.

A considerable amount of RISE’s comfort can be attributed to the proprietary comfort foam seat. The seat comes in two options, the streamlined convex seat or the extra supportive both designed to support optimal sitting posture. The closed-cell cold-cured foam technology used in the RISE series features a smooth outer skin that is kind to fabric, protecting the foam over time. The proprietary comfort foam is sculpted to provide body balance technology built directly into the cushioning of the seat and back, injecting it into an engineered mold at controlled, differing rates, creating strategic, multi-density levels within each cushion. This process builds a subtle seat contour that maximizes support exactly where it is needed and where body weight is most concentrated. The seat embodies distinguished lasting support that keeps RISE users in optimal comfort. Learn more about Via Seating’s proprietary comfort foam »

The RISE series features the optional telescoping gas lift that allows users to sit comfortably with their feet on the ground and then elevate to approximately counter height where the foot-ring can support their feet. RISE is enhanced with the telescoping gas lift, making it accommodate a desk at any height. This serves as a true sit-to-stand function that works in harmony with any sit-to-stand desk.
