ME TOO

Me Too Task Chair wins the best product award in "Office/Business" category of IF Design Awards, where 2771 products competed. Nurus received its first IF award in year 2001 with its I/X Office Executive System, a first also for Turkey.

Since 1953, the Industrie Forum (IF), world's most prestigious design award, selects the best products in various categories. Receiving applications from over 30 countries each year, IF Design Award provides companies with credibility on international arena and also confirms the design quality of products once again.

This year, 1002 contestants from 35 countries competed with 2771 products in 14 categories at IF 2008 Design Awards. IF jury comprising 20 jurors assessed products in a wide spectrum, ranging from telecommunication to electronics, illumination, furniture, home decoration, office equipment, automotive and packaging, on basis of criteria that are determined in consideration of universal values of industrial production. Among products, which have been evaluated in terms of design quality, choice of material, workmanship, innovation, environmental sensitivity, functionality, ergonomics, safety, brand value, universality and aesthetics, Me Too Task Chair by Nurus D Team ranked among the best and received award in "Office/Business" category.

Me Too is designed with a view to improve the quality of office life, where we spend at least eight hours every day, one third of our lives, constructing a healthy way of living at our offices. Conceptualized with Nurus D Team's approach that "a well designed office chair is the health insurance for the employee", and produced according to European Norms, Me Too holds LGA and GS safety certification.
The fact that problems encountered in waist, back and neck regions originate from using unhealthy office chairs was among the factors that brought Me Too the IF Design Award, another factor being that Me Too concept is masterfully finished with product ergonomics and technical details.

Technical Features
Ergonomics and Functionality: Me Too's syncronized mechanism by Bock, provides 4° forward and up to 27° backwards tilt, lockable in 3 different positions. Height adjustable headrest and lumbar support, height and pivot adjustable armrest, back upholstery net by Krall & Roth and seat in fabric or leather. Castors for both hard and soft floor.
