TORRANCE, Calif., April 25, 2003 (PRIMEZONE) -- Virco (AMEX:VIR):
Thanks to the extensive research of award-winning designer Richard Holbrook, Virco's Ph.D.(tm) chairs employ simple, straightforward controls and adjustments to deliver sustained comfort and effective ergonomic support. And for good measure, they're also attractive, durable, affordable and environmentally sustainable.
As a functional design innovation, Holbrook combined a "duo-link" suspension with two basic adjustments -- seat height and tilt tension -- enabling virtually anyone to set up Ph.D. chairs for good support and comfort without having to read an owner's manual.
Six Ph.D. models are available, including two with a sleek, supportive gel seat for consistent pressure distribution and enhanced seating ease. In addition, all Ph.D. models feature durable construction materials -- including polypropylene and glass-filled nylon for long-lasting performance. Not only that, components constructed of these materials can readily be reprocessed when a given Ph.D. chair is withdrawn from service.
Ph.D.'s balanced, symmetrical lines reflect Richard Holbrook's contemporary design sensibility. Nuanced styling details, such as the chair back's understated ventilation slots, provide tasteful aesthetic accents.
