24-hour chairs are in use around the clock. This means that they, and their covers in particular, are subject to extreme stresses. This is why approx. 80 % of Svenstol chairs are partially or completely upholstered in leather. Leather brings together a range of qualities better than any other material. It is hardwearing, easy to look after, durable and comfortable. Plus, it’s ideal for repeatedly changing users and even encounters with hard or sharp objects are generally not a problem. Leather isn’t cheap but the many advantages it offers more than compensate for the price. And, in contrast to other materials, leather still continues to look good after years of intensive use.
