Stack High, Pay Low Your problem is too much to bear: You manage a facility in which chairs are always being moved. From meeting room to cafeteria to classrooms to another meeting area. Finding the lightweight Limerick chair, which stacks 36 high on a specially designed cart or 10 high on the floor, helps your office run more easily and efficiently. And the chairs are attractive, comfortable, economical, and 100% recyclable . . . How's that for a much better chair? Limerick chairs show up in so many places because they deliver so much value for such a down-to-earth price. You can stack 10 chairs on the floor or move 36 of them stacked on a cart. Ganging glides let you link the chairs easily to make neat rows of seating for classrooms or auditoriums. Who expects comfort in a chair like this? The seat and back are high and wide so the chair fits a large range of people. The back is curved and flexible, to provide lumbar support and flex subtly as you move in the seat.
An opening between the back and seat provides ventilation—and makes the chair easy to carry. The double-front cross bars are positioned so that nothing interferes with moving your legs and ankles while you sit. They also make the chair extra-sturdy. The chair's slender profile fits nicely in any office environment. shells are available in four colors. Designer: Jeff WeberCompact and comfortable, agile and affordable, Caper Chairs move around easily and brighten up any room with color and flair. They’re ideal for informal, flexible spaces where rearranging is encouraged—at home or around the office. And now Caper sports a new palette of vibrant hues and subtle neutrals. Configure Your Caper Stacking Chair The Perfect Portable Chair Caper Chairs do so much, and are nice to have around, precisely because designer Jeff Weber kept the needs of the average person in clear view throughout the design process. For those wanting a lightweight chair, he made Caper compact;
its armless version weighs just 9.5 pounds.the chair even has a handle. For versatility, he made Caper stack, so it can be part of the action or out of the way, depending on what you need. "Achieves its high level of performance and comfortby using standard materials in novel ways." Anyone, even the kids, can move these chairs around easily. Caper chairs weigh about half as much as competitive models: The chair without arms weighs only 9½ pounds; the chair with arms, 11½. When stacked, Capers take up less floor space than folding chairs. Choose the molded seat, contoured and flexible and perforated with small holes to help keep you cool. Or select seats made with FLEXNET, a strong, breathable suspension material. Both seating options are available with or without arms. Choose casters or standard glides for carpets. Stacking chairs can also be equipped with an innovative Floor Saver Glide insert to protect hard finishes—ideal for vinyl composition tiles (VCT); the glide pushes dirt out of the way instead of running it over and grinding it into the tile.
Caper is available in an array of versatile colors, from sophisticated neutrals to vibrant primaries. The light, clean design of the chairs fits in without dominating the look or feel of your space. Each Caper chair is up to 100 percent recyclable. And made of up to 25 percent recycled material. Because Caper chairs weigh about half as much as competitive models, fewer materials and less energy are required for their manufacture Product StoryCaper Stacking Chairs are lightweight—the armless version with molded seat weighs just 9.5 pounds—and portable, so they can go wherever you need casual, short-term seating. For space-efficient storage when they’re not in use, Caper Stacking Chairs can stack six-high on the floor or 15-high on the Caper Cart, where they can be moved conveniently as a group. With optional ganging connectors, they make a tidy presentation space. PerformanceCaper’s polypropylene seat and back are contoured for comfort, flexible for give, and colorful enough to brighten up any room.
Holes in the material allow your body to breathe, so moisture and heat dissipate, so you remain cool. An optional FLEXNET seat uses advanced suspension materials to minimize pressure points, which keeps you comfortable as you sit. Jeff Weber designed the Caper family of seating to accommodate a diversity of people, and, just as important, the variety of spaces where they use them and tasks that they do. As stylish as they are versatile, Caper chairs and stools are available in a palette of fresh, lively colors. Sophisticated neutrals complement, while vibrant primary colors bring energy. The Caper family of agile, stylish seating includes multipurpose chairs and stools, stacking chairs and stools, as well as the Caper Stacking Chair with Tablet Arm. Mix and match chairs and stools to add practical function and a pop of color to any space. Caper chairs and stools were designed by Jeff Weber of Studio Weber + Associates. His goal, and ours, was to create comfortable, mobile seating that’s also affordable.
“Too much good design seems expensive,” Weber says, “I wanted to break that cliché.” Weber believes that design is "the connective tissue" between people and the environment, and that the quality of that design—whether of a building or a chair—has a profound effect on quality of life. Caper seating, he says, achieves its high level of performance and comfort by "using standard materials in novel ways." Industrial Designers Society of America (IDSA) awards the Sayl side chair a Bronze Industrial Design Excellence Award (IDEA) in the category of Office and Productivity. Design Your Own Side Chair Attainable Quality and Design Sayl side chairs can move seamlessly from conference to work group and back again. They have been designed to take up less visual space, and you can stack the 4-leg version up to four high for easy storage. Lots of options—back, base, arms, colors. Elegant styling at an attainable price. Design Your Own Side ChairGet the side chair that looks right and works right for you.
You can have a chair with a 4-leg base and glides or casters, with or without arms. Or choose a chair with a cantilever base with or without arms. You can have a suspension similar to the 3D Intelligent suspension back on the work chair, or a familiar upholstered back. Sayl side chairs are available in a wide array of classic and expressive back and seat colors, so you can have a single chair or an officeful that will sit beautifully in your environment, whatever it is. Eco-Dematerialized DesignYves Béhar is big on environmental responsibility in design. With Sayl, he went a step farther, starting the design process by thinking about what could be removed. How could we use the least possible material and still achieve the highest standards? The answer, of course, was to use materials in innovative ways. We produce Sayl side chairs on three continents to reduce the distance between factory and buyer. Sayl side chairs contain no PVCs and are up to 92 percent recyclable. Sayl chairs are currently GREENGUARD certified and under evaluation for McDonough Braungart Design Chemistry (MBDC) Cradle to Cradle Design Protocol as well as level 2 certification.
As affordable as it is inventive, Sayl disproves the notion that a reasonably priced chair means offhand design and minimal ergonomics. From the beginning, our goal was to make a high-quality, beautifully designed, comfortable work and side chairs that lived up to our standards and were also affordable. Sayl is that chair. We asked designer Yves Béhar to design a highly affordable chair that would incorporate everything Herman Miller is known for—beautiful design, first-class ergonomics, elegant engineering, and respect for the environment. Béhar, who calls San Francisco home, began by looking at designs that deliver the most with the least. And then he took a look at his city's best-known landmark: the Golden Gate Bridge. It was one of those aha! Béhar wondered, could the engineering principles of a suspension bridge be applied to a chair? It turned out that, not only was it possible, but using a suspension tower to support an unframed back would reduce materials, weight, and environmental impact.
