Details

Zody is built to support the way you work, whether you're fully seated or in a perched position at a height-adjustable desk. At the core of its ergonomic innovation is a 3-point synchronous tilt system that aligns with the body's natural pivot points — hip, knee, and ankle — to deliver a smooth, effortless recline. This means minimal effort to lean back, consistent lumbar support, and a perfectly balanced feel, no matter your shape or size.

Zody was the first chair to offer asymmetrical lumbar support for personalized comfort, and the first to achieve Cradle to Cradle® certification for sustainability. Every detail is fine-tuned for comfort and precision. Its Pelvic and Asymmetrical Lumbar system provides customized support, encouraging a natural sitting posture. The suspension mesh gives you targeted support with three distinct zones, calibrated for ergonomic balance and all-day comfort. Torsional flex allows the backrest to respond dynamically to shifts in position, reducing pressure points and increasing mobility.

Zody isn’t just good for you — it’s good for the planet, too. With GREENGUARD Gold® certification, it’s been independently tested and proven to be free from over 10,000 chemicals, helping support cleaner air where you work.

Adjust the seat up and down depending on your height.

4D arms adjust up and down, side to side, front to back, and pivot in and out to support your neck and shoulders.

Back stop lets you choose an upright position or limit how much you can recline.

Adjust how much force is necessary to recline in your chair.
X
Angle the seat downward by 5° to support a forward-leaning posture.

Our Patented Pelvic and Asymmetrical Lumbar back system lets you fine-tune support on each side independently — because as humans, we’re not symmetrical. Additional pelvic support rotates the pelvis forward to help maintain your spine’s natural curves as you sit.
X
Dual posture supports two positions: sitting down, and the in-between “perch” that’s half sitting, half standing (a common posture with a sit-to-stand desk).
X
Designed for multi-surface floors. Your chair should glide across the floor but won’t roll.

Vacuum your chair as needed.
For additional cleaning, use a solution of lukewarm water and mild detergent (about 10%). Gently apply in a circular motion, then rinse with warm water and dry with a soft cloth.

Materials

Choose from breathable mesh, our signature zero-waste digital knit, or top-grain leather. Mesh naturally regulates body temperature and beautifully filters light. Digital knit offers the coziness of your favorite sweater and the innovation of technology. Because each cut is engineered to exact dimensions, there’s no leftover material — and zero waste. Our smooth, full-grain leather is soft and luxe with a premium feel.

Precision comfort, powered by you.

Dual Posture

Designed for sit-to-stand work, this option supports that in-between posture — part sitting, part standing — so you stay supported even when your desk is raised.

Pelvic Asymmetrical Lumbar Support

Zody’s patented PAL™ system delivers targeted lower back support — stabilizing the pelvis while allowing independent adjustment on either side of the lumbar for a custom fit that aligns with your spine’s natural curves.

Forward Tilt

Tilt the seat forward by 5° to support upright, task-focused posture — ideal for moments of deep concentration or close-up work.

Seat Height Adjustment

Easily adjust the seat to match your height. For optimal support, your knees should form a 90° angle with your feet flat on the floor.

Tilt Tension Control

Go from relaxed and reclined to sitting upright in seconds with a simple, easy-to-use crank.

4D Arms

Get full support for your neck and shoulders with arms that move in and out, up and down, side to side, and front to back.

Designed for all the ways you work.

Engineered for your body. Designed for the planet.

Two Postures, One Chair

Zody was one of the first chairs to introduce dual posture support — designed for both seated and perched positions. That means full ergonomic comfort whether you’re sitting down or working at a raised desk in that in-between, half-sit/half-stand stance.

Trailblazing Sustainability

Zody doesn’t just meet sustainability standards — it helps set them. It’s the first chair to earn Cradle to Cradle Certified® Bronze under the newest qualifications and also meets the highest environmental criteria from BIFMA, the Business and Institutional Furniture Manufacturers Association.

GREENGUARD Gold® Certified

Zody is certified to meet the most rigorous standard for low chemical emissions — tested to be free of over 10,000 VOCs (volatile organic compounds) that can affect indoor air quality. The result? A chair that helps create a cleaner, healthier workspace.

Environmental Integrity

Zody is made with more than 90% recyclable materials — and it’s designed for easy disassembly, making end-of-life recycling simple. We never use PVC, heavy metals, or flame retardants in our chairs, so you can feel good about what you’re sitting on.

Sustainable Comfort

Opt for Zody in Hobson fabric and help reduce ocean waste. Made from 80% ocean-bound plastic and recycled polyester, this exclusive textile is soft, durable, and modern. Each yard diverts 33 plastic bottles from entering the ocean — proof that comfort can do good.
