Introducing the Generation by Knoll Flex Back and Flex Top. Elastic design
and material innovation that deliver multidimensional support.
Current ergonomic research challenges the idea of a single, forward-facing posture, recognizing
that maintaining one seated position for an extended time is not compatible with the body’s
natural tendency toward movement. Created from a high performance elastomer, the innovative
Generation by Knoll Flex Back facilitates changes in posture and position throughout the
workday. The Flex Top extends the range of movement, allowing you to sit comfortably in any
position—even sideways.
Energizing Flex. The Generation by Knoll
Flex Back fuses two innovative elements—
a resilient Flex Back Net and a distinctive
figure 8 structure—which together support
many different postures and allow for multi-
dimensional movement. The curvature of the
figure 8 structure combined with the specific
tension, pattern and unique properties of the
Net enables side-to-side flex and ensures
optimal localized support for shoulders and
lumbar region. Responding to your range of
movement, the Flex Top folds over the top
edge of the back providing a comfortable
armrest for side sitting or other informal
postures.
