The workbenches of the "Tec" product family from Dauphin allow for the selection of various components and equipment options as needed. The range extends from cleanroom versions for use in environments with special hygiene requirements to special ESD benches for work areas where electrostatic charge poses a risk.

Precise and focused work in the laboratory requires a relaxed posture. Ergonomic counter chairs ideally support users at workstations where employees sit high or alternate between sitting and standing activities (pictured: cleanroom laboratories of the Fraunhofer IPA, where Dauphin work chairs and stools were tested for cleanroom suitability as part of the TESTED DEVICE® certification).

Solutions for a holistic, ergonomically optimal workplace design in industry and administration are the focus of this year's A+A trade fair presentation by Dauphin HumanDesign Group GmbH & Co. KG (DHDG). The international trade fair for occupational safety and health takes place from October 27 to 30, 2015, in Düsseldorf. In Hall 10, Stand B37, DHDG showcases a variety of seating solutions for different application areas in industrial settings and offices. Additionally, the company presents effective methods for knowledge transfer on the topic of ergonomics in the workplace.

The DHDG trade fair appearance at A+A 2015 emphasizes holistic approaches: In addition to products and innovations, the company primarily presents application-oriented solutions for ergonomically ideal workplace design in industry and office environments. For example, the DHDG booth displays various areas of an industrial company: from cleanroom environments with laboratory workstations, through 24-hour workplaces, to production and a separate ESD area protected against electrostatic discharge. Also on display: an administrative area with practical office furniture and a communal zone where communication among employees takes place. Multifunctional furniture with acoustic protection offers retreat options for confidential conversations or individual relaxation.

Innovations for special workplace requirements

To the international professional audience at A+A, the successful brand Dauphin is presenting for the first time a new 24-hour chair from the “@Just” product line for the special demands of sitting in shift work. With an advanced seating mechanism, the chair optimally supports the spine of the sitting person while providing the necessary freedom of movement. This way, the “@Just 24/7” helps prevent fatigue and tension caused by long, sedentary sitting. Thanks to a user-friendly quick adjustment of the backrest’s counter-pressure, different users can adapt the chair quickly and easily to their individual needs. As further innovations, Dauphin is showcasing a new “Allround” industrial chair and innovative seating solutions for the special requirements of ESD workstations. In areas where electrostatic charge poses a risk, such as in chip or circuit board manufacturing, these chairs reliably dissipate excess energy.

Support around the topic of back prevention

The holistic approach of Dauphin HumanDesign Group also includes supporting companies on the topic of back prevention and far beyond mere workplace equipment. DHDG offers a wide range of services in ergonomics consulting. The spectrum of independent services ranges from professional workplace consulting and support for corporate health days to training multipliers within companies who raise awareness among colleagues about the importance of prevention. Using scientific measurement methods, the Dauphin Ergolab, and modern media, ergonomics experts make the topic of back prevention tangible and provide employees with practical knowledge about ergonomics at work. This will also be experienced live at A+A. The DHDG continues to develop its tools: at the fair, the company will also present its “90-Second Workplace Check” app and ergonomic tutorials in video format.
