Keilhauer Elevates Healthcare Lounge Seating with Neesh

November 14, 2024 (Toronto) – Keilhauer is thrilled to announce the expansion of its healthcare offering with an enhanced version of the acclaimed Neesh lounge chair, specifically designed to meet the unique demands of healthcare settings. Combining refined aesthetics with critical functional features, the Neesh chair seamlessly brings sophistication, safety, and inclusivity to environments dedicated to care.

The celebrated Neesh lounge chair, now adapted for healthcare use, offers all the attributes essential for supportive and accessible seating. With its elegant contours and graceful lines, Neesh provides an elevated yet comforting seating solution that serves both patients and visitors with style and practicality.

“As Keilhauer continues to expand our healthcare line-up, Neesh embodies our commitment to delivering sophisticated, purposeful seating for both patients and visitors to feel comfortable and cared for,” says Meghan Sherwin, Keilhauer’s President.

Neesh has been meticulously engineered to prioritize ease of use, durability, and access for cleaning. A subtle gap between the removable seat and backrest facilitates thorough cleaning, while an 18-inch seat height optimizes ease of sitting and standing, promoting independence. The chair’s robust steel legs add strength and stability, and its surfaces are designed for easy sanitization – making Neesh as safe as it is elegant. Additionally, Neesh was rigorously tested to the BIFMA Large Occupant Public and Lounge Seating Standard.

Reflecting Keilhauer’s commitment to sustainable and responsible design, Neesh is certified to the highest standards: BIFMA LEVEL® 3, Certified Carbon Neutral, Greenhealth Approved, and Indoor Air Quality certified at the Indoor Advantage Gold™ level. Designed by EOOS and made by Keilhauer, Neesh exemplifies a balance of beauty, sustainability, and functionality.
