OM Seating, based in Ontario, Calif., recently announced a variety of educational seating solutions via a press release. The three distinct styles are adaptable and flexible to meet the needs of a variety of environments. According to the news release, the seating solutions are affordable, lightweight, and ready to ship upon order.

The OM5 Active is best for collaborative environments and enables “user-initiated motion by virtue of a self-weighing, fully articulated chair top,” the news release reports. It can serve as a light task chair, a sled-based mid-density stacker, and a four-legged side chair that comes with multiple options.

The Ginny Multi-Tasker offers a classic design that best fits with collaboration zones, offices, and conference rooms. The multi-functionality and swiveling seat fit with the organization’s wider line of visitor and bariatric chairs, according to the press release.

Finally, the Wersky Collection offers three models—the Rocker, Tasker, and Visitor—that offer both functional and moveable solutions for collaboration, creativity, and contemplation.
