Category: Fittings and Advice
Sustainability and social responsibility have become top priorities. It is therefore crucial to re-evaluate the products we choose to buy and consume. With this in mind, we present the GARD chair, a symbol of innovative reconditioning and functional design.
Quality, comfort and accessibility
The GARD seat is more than just a seat. Meticulously designed, it embodies a forward-thinking approach that transforms end-of-life materials into remarkable products. This seat is a perfect illustration of our commitment to sustainability, where 50% of its mass comes from reused resources that would otherwise have been neglected or destined for landfill.
The story behind the GARD headquarters
The idea for the GARD seat came from the variety of used seats we received. Each seat was unique, but they all shared a common element: their chassis. So we decided to give these chairs a new lease of life by creating the GARD seat, with a refurbished chassis. This initiative reflects our commitment to offering a sustainable alternative while preserving the quality and comfort of a top-of-the-range product.
Outstanding features
This furniture is equipped with essential features such as adjustable lumbar support, 3-dimensional armrests for personalized comfort, and a dynamic rocking mechanism that promotes healthy, dynamic posture.

A sedentary lifestyle at work poses a major health challenge for employees in a variety of sectors. Long hours spent sitting can have serious consequences for health, such as increasing the risk of musculoskeletal disorders, pain and cardiovascular problems, and can even affect mental well-being. Yet simple measures and the adoption of adapted equipment can greatly improve workers' daily lives.
Practical advice
Adopt a dynamic ergonomic posture: Opt for an ergonomic chair that adequately supports your posture while allowing you to move freely. Dynamic sitting improves blood circulation and reduces pressure on certain parts of the body.
Take breaks every two hours to vary your working posture, alternating between sitting and standing. This stimulates circulation and prevents immobility-related pain.
Incorporate exercise and stretching: Incorporate simple exercises and stretching into your routine to keep your body active and flexible, helping to loosen muscles and improve mobility.
Invest in active furniture: Choose furniture designed to encourage physical activity, such as sit-stand desks, dynamic stools, office bikes or ball chairs. This equipment encourages movement and helps reduce sedentary lifestyles.

The circular economy has become a fundamental pillar of public policy. Its aim is to minimize our ecological footprint and promote a more sustainable consumption model. In this respect, the decree implementing article 58 of the AGEC law (Anti-Gaspillage pour une Économie Circulaire) marks a crucial step in French regulations. The result of a process involving assessments, surveys and public consultations, it introduces concrete measures to encourage the acquisition of reused and recycled products by public entities.
Key points of the new decree
The new decree introduces several key provisions:
Acquisition targets
From 2024, the State, local authorities and their groupings will be required to purchase a minimum of 20% reused furniture and 15% including recycled material. The aim of this measure is to stimulate the use of circular products and boost the reuse and upcycling economy.
Simplifying the system
The decree aims to simplify the current system to make it clearer and more effective, which should make it easier for public entities to apply and promote greater understanding of circular purchasing requirements.
Progressive obligations
The text introduces obligations staggered over time, giving public entities the opportunity to adapt gradually to the new standards. This gradual approach should help the transition to more sustainable purchasing practices.
Broadening the types of products concerned
In addition to furniture, the decree extends its obligations to new types of products, broadening the scope for sustainable purchasing. This covers a wider range of goods and supports the transition to a more circular economy.
The value of donations for public-sector buyers
A noteworthy innovation is the possibility for public purchasers to value donations in achieving their objectives. This measure encourages the re-use of products and supports solidarity initiatives. This encourages the assistance of charitable organizations and social economy structures.
Lhe commitment of our Manufacture des Cévennes
As an entity wishing to meet the objectives of the AGEC law and promote responsible purchasing. Our Manufacture des Cévennes offers a wide range of recycled items. We are committed to offering sustainable solutions, through :

In France, adapting workstations to guarantee employee safety, comfort and well-being is not only essential, but also governed by law.
Why is workplace design crucial?
Adapting a workstation may involve making material adjustments, modifying the tools used, or even reorganizing the workspace. The aim is to enable every employee to work efficiently and safely, while preserving their physical and mental health.
Employer's obligations
French legislation requires employers to take all necessary measures to ensure the health, safety and continued employment of their employees, including the implementation of specific accommodations when required. This legal responsibility aims to create a work environment that is adapted to each individual, thus promoting inclusion and productivity.

Decreased productivity, eye strain, chronic migraines, all these ailments can be caused by poor lighting at your workstation. In order to fight these serious pathologies, the professional space must offer an ergonomic, healthy and safe lighting arrangement for the employees. Synonymous with well-being, good lighting influences the performance of our activities, our performance and our motivation. It is therefore essential for a serene and efficient work and should not be neglected.
Regulated or not by the directives of the Labour Code, professional environments such as theOpen Space or the Home Office remain very vulnerable to the problems of luminosity. It is therefore necessary to inform yourself about the different recommendations in order to imagine a luminous environment that is conducive to concentration and good mood, respectful of your health.
Standards and the importance of brightness
Few people know it, but there are specific standards for lighting in the workplace. Adequate lighting is not simply a matter of personal preference; it has a direct impact on the performance of our professional activities and on our motivation. Whether you work in a traditional office or telecommute, ensuring good lighting is essential for a serene and efficient working environment.
Basic principles for optimal lighting
Take into account the nature of the activities carried out
Before any installation it is advisable to define the technical characteristics of your environment as well as your precise needs in terms of lighting. Indeed, each activity requires a different level of lighting, as specified in article R4223 of the French Labour Code : " Thelevel of lighting must be adapted to the nature and precision of the work to be carried out". However, there is universal advice applicable to all trades.
Diversify lighting sources to protect your health
The diversification of light sources is for example a recommendation that is now strongly encouraged. The lighting must be intense enough to prevent visual disorders while avoiding overexposure. For office tasks, the recommended ergonomic light intensity is generally around 500 Lux.
To begin, make sure you create a uniform light base. The use of a ceiling or pendant light will ensure that the ambient light is of a constant intensity. This primary source will create a general atmosphere that is soothing, conducive to work and less likely to cause eye strain. It will protect you from the uncertain fluctuations of daylight and limit the high contrasts caused by the use of other more powerful sources. For more softness, avoid neon or spotlights, direct light too aggressive.
Adjustable lighting solutions for greater visual comfort
After the quantity, it is now time to think about the quality of your lighting. To work in the best possible conditions, turn to reliable and competent lighting equipment.
Selection criteria to consider
One of the key points of the finalization of your ergonomic installation will be the possibility of personalizing your accessories. For example, you will need a chameleon lamp capable of adapting to all your specific requirements (e.g.: right or left handed). For more comfort and efficiency, an adjustable light source is to be preferred. Easy to use, it has healthy and practical features, particularly appreciable in professional spaces.
For example, you can choose a desk lamp with a tilting head or a luminaire with an articulated arm. These direct the light beam precisely where you need it, ensuring that your workstation is perfectly illuminated. Some models offer even more specific adjustments. For example, it is now possible to modulate the lighting temperature of your lamp. Very practical, this will allow you to adapt the brightness by taking into account the time of day, the weather and even your sensory preferences. The color of this light will be ideally close to that of natural lighting and will therefore be between 2500 and 4000 Kelvin. Thanks to these innovative lamps, significantly increase your visual comfort, your concentration and your productivity.
For mobile workstations or those with space constraints, there are clever solutions. String lights, clip-on lights and other battery operated lights are flexible and efficient accessories. They will illuminate you properly while remaining easily transportable.
Opt for energy-efficient lighting
During your lighting design process, you will need to choose a bulb that meets your expectations and your means. Incandescent halogen or low consumption, you have the embarrassment of the choice.
In view of the current context, it is essential to choose a low energy lamp that is kind to our planet but also to your wallet. In the office, 15 watts are more than enough to guarantee sufficient luminosity. For your visual safety and for energy efficiency, choose low-energy lamps and LED lamps (white light). Highly resistant, they will illuminate you for very long hours. If you need a more powerful light, turn to halogen bulbs, which are less environmentally friendly but give off a more intense light.
Beware of the brightness of your screens!
To finalize your luminous environment perfectly, you must now worry about the harms generated by your screens. Indeed, the blue light emitted by them accelerates visual degradation, chronic fatigue and significantly develops insomnia. To fight these harmful impacts on health, it is imperative to protect your eyes.
For this, there are very simple solutions: Add an additional light source to your desk and black out windows to avoid glare. Lower the brightness and contrast of your screens to preserve your vision. Get a PC arm and sit at a reasonable distance from your computer for a healthier work posture. Finally, in addition to all these tips, you can invest in a pair of protective glasses. These offer a special treatment, blue light filter and anti-glare for optimal safety.
To reduce the shadows created by general lighting, you can alsoadd desk lamps. To be more precise, try theseaccent lighting for sufficient brightness that's easy on the eyes. They can be installed in pairs to provide both direct and indirect illumination. Reading lights, mobile lamps and floor lamps are ideal solutions for this type of consumption.

In a world where the provenance of the products we consume can sometimes seem unclear, it's becoming essential to be attentive to our consumer choices. Between advertising slogans and sometimes contradictory information, it's difficult to make informed choices. However, it is crucial to ask ourselves where our goods come from, as this has a major impact on our economy, local employment and the environment.
When we favor French products, we support the national economy. This allows us to preserve local employment and reduce the carbon footprint caused by the long-distance transport of goods. ErgoSanté, a recognized adapted company, is committed to the French furniture industry by joining their "meublez-vous français" movement.

It means supporting local companies, craftsmen and manufacturers who play an active role in our nation's economic growth. Every purchase you make contributes to strengthening our national economy, creating a virtuous circle for society as a whole.
Preserving local employment
One of the most tangible benefits of consuming French products is the preservation of local jobs. By choosing goods made in France, you are directly contributing to the creation and maintenance of jobs within the company. This reinforces the economic stability of the sector.
Reducing carbon footprint
Another crucial aspect of buying French products is reducing your carbon footprint. By opting for locally manufactured goods, you considerably reduce the CO2 emissions associated with transporting goods over long distances. This helps preserve our environment and combat climate change.

These days, many people spend long hours sitting at their desks, whether at work or at home. But did you know that this habit can have harmful effects on your health? A new study published in the journal Physiological Reviews*discusses the risks associated with prolonged sitting.
The dangers of a sedentary lifestyle
A sedentary lifestyle, or sitting for too long, can have serious consequences for our health. Study results show that this can increase the risk of various health problems, including type 2 diabetes, heart disease, certain cancers, as well as musculoskeletal disorders. If you're experiencing muscle fatigue, leg swelling and back, hip, knee or ankle pain, it's important to take action. It's not too late to take action!
Reducing risks: study tips
Fortunately, there are ways of reducing these risks. The study recommends limiting periods of sitting or standing to around 40 minutes at a time. By doing so, you can significantly reduce the risk of muscle and joint pain. What's more, it's crucial to break up these periods by getting up, moving around or even taking short walks. This promotes better blood circulation and contributes to your general well-being.

Various studies have shown the harmful impact of ambient noise on our comfort and productivity. However, noise pollution in the office is still a daily problem for millions of people. Hearing fatigue, tinnitus, whistling, high blood pressure, this degradation of our work environment has harmful effects on our health. At the same time, this professional tumult deteriorates our mental well-being with strong psychological and emotional repercussions. Pathologies such as chronic stress, insomnia or loss of concentration develop among employees. In order to create a healthy space for communication and collaboration, it is therefore necessary to intelligently design the premises.
Adopt desk dividers to reduce open space noise
By nature totally open, the open space must be judiciously separated into spaces adapted to the needs of the personnel. Without talking about major works, a good layout will be enough to considerably reduce the propagation of noise for a better sound comfort.
Close proximity of workstations can have a negative impact on concentration and disturb confidentiality. Fortunately, there are simple and ergonomic solutions that allow you to create clever boundaries between you and your colleagues. For example, partitioning screens combine simple mounting, design and sound insulation. These mobile and light panels adapt to all environments and can be quickly installed on your desk to reduce the noise level. They are available in many models, varying in shape and color to meet all needs. Twist their aesthetics according to your desires and bring freshness and modernity to your premises.
In the same idea, partition walls are excellent tools to arrange the work environment in a simple and modular way. They visually determine the different zones of a room, bringing silence and harmony. Highly effective, they absorb noise pollution and reduce ambient noise. Optimizing the acoustics of the premises, they are also perfect for decorating. From the simple screen to the elegant folding screen, fixed or with wheels, these noise barriers can be found in all forms.
These delimitations clean up the working conditions, thus reducing the negative consequences of noise on our health and our concentration. No more permanent noise, each employee will be able to use the different spaces of the open space properly.
Acoustic booths to improve hearing comfort
To perfect this separation, the acoustic cabins or huts offer spaces with maximum auditory comfort. This unique and innovative concept provides private meeting or work areas that absorb ambient noise and limit the noise emitted to the outside. Highly functional and fully equipped, these soundproof rooms allow for optimal concentration and confidentiality. Authentic havens of peace, they give everyone the possibility to isolate themselves completely or to discuss with others within the open space, in the respect of all. Whether you are looking for an ultra-modern box or a convivial alcove, you are sure to find what you are looking for among a wide range of choices.
Improve office soundproofing with acoustic furniture
The sound insulation of the surfaces of your premises is one of the best solutions to combat noise pollution. Here, the objective is to avoid external noises, but also their amplification and propagation inside the premises. Thanks to adapted furniture, it is perfectly possible to correct and control your sound environment.
Acoustic panels made of absorbent foam and fabric will attenuate the reverberation and echo of a room to ensure the auditory well-being of its occupants. Their implementation in the professional space must be studied to maximize their actions without modifying the existing installations. In fact, these isophonic plates are to be placed on the walls and ceiling in order to reduce the propagation of sound waves. Real decorative accessory, they will integrate effortlessly in the layout of the open space. Playful, modern and colorful, they will even bring a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
Office furniture also has a role to play in reducing noise. For example, it can be used effectively as a support for soundproofing. Backs of cabinets, executive chairs or adjustable desks can quickly accommodatesoundproofing. Very easily installed, these are practical solutions to benefit from the advantages of acoustic panels at affordable prices.
Ergonomic furniture also helps to restore calm to your office. Thanks to their useful and silent adjustment features, they are designed to interfere with your colleagues' concentration as little as possible. Thus, some keyboards associated with a clever technology considerably reduce the noise during typing to reduce disturbances. Ever more innovative, soundproof furniture is appearing on the market. Equipped with the same soundproofing and absorbing materials as the panels, they allow to reduce the noise diffusion without investing in additional furniture.
Choose individual hearing protection to boost your concentration
Collective protection is essential to reduce ambient noise in the office, but can sometimes prove insufficient. More personal solutions exist to prevent discomfort and hearing deterioration.
PICB(Personal Noise Protection) protections visibly attenuate the harmful effects of noise thanks to their noise reduction properties. They must be chosen according to the work environment and be CE certified according to the EN352-2 standard to effectively protect against noise pollution. In open spaces, these accessible solutions can take the form of headphones or earplugs. These quickly create little bubbles of peace and quiet that boost productivity and concentration. This personal protective equipment(PPE) encourages a kind of inner calm and is ideal for creating small moments of respite during a long working day.
Other accessories such as headphones, earphones or microphones with anti-noise technology are appearing on our workstations. Like the PICBs, they allow you to isolate yourself to better focus your attention, but have the advantage of having other uses. For example, they can facilitate conversations by making phone calls perfectly intelligible even with the tumult outside. Almost all models will also allow you to listen to music. Stimulating the secretion of endorphins, the melodies will soothe you, reducing stress and promoting concentration. Depending on your personal needs, they can also motivate, stimulate creativity and play a beneficial role in the memorization and integration of information.
Do you work from home or in an open space? Discover here three tips to complete your ergonomic installation and protect your eyes at the office!
Whether we use a computer, a tablet or a projector, screens are now at the heart of our daily professional life. This overexposure is not without consequences for our visual health! Tingling, trembling, heavy eyelids or blurred vision are the first signs of eye fatigue. If not taken seriously, it can lead to chronic migraines or visual disorders such as myopia. It is therefore important to protect your eyes, regardless of your work environment. Adopt a few simple reflexes that will ensure your well-being and productivity!
1. Question its installation and positioning
You probably didn't see it coming, but an adapted posture is essential to keep your eyes healthy. Too close to the screen or curled up in front of it, these positions have very harmful impacts on our visual health. Discreetly integrated throughout our working day, these positions create a totally unbalanced vision. An upright work posture will effectively relieve both your back pain and your eye problems.
In order to sit properly, you will first need to adjust your ergonomic chair for comfortable seating. Once this is done, you will need to adjust your monitors and briefcases. There are many accessories available for this purpose. For example, use monitor arms or PC stands to place yourself at a reasonable distance from your computer. These ingenious additions to the workstation will support the body in achieving healthy postures. Functional, they allow many adjustments to position your gaze in an optimal way. This position will avoid too much strain on your eyes, thus preventing headaches and visual fatigue.
The location of your desk can also affect your eye comfort. If possible, your monitor should be placed perpendicular to a window with curtains. This will allow you to benefit from direct natural light and avoid annoying reflections. Good visibility will considerably reduce the risks to your eyes. Therefore, avoid as much as possible workstations with their backs to the openings.
2. Benefit from sufficient and adapted ergonomic lighting
To protect your eyes, it is very important to ensure an ergonomic lighting design of your work environment. Whether at home or in an open space, good lighting will help you combat vision problems at work. It will be a source of well-being and will influence your health and performance.
The key to good lighting is to diversify the lighting. Taking into account the natural light, you must choose a varied artificial light. First, choose a main source that will diffuse ambient light. Your ceiling light must be efficient enough to illuminate without dazzling. In order to reduce contrasts and shadows, you must now add accent lighting. Reading lights, floor lamps or classic desk lamps will be essential to complete your visual comfort. Prefer adjustable lighting that can be quickly adapted to all your needs. These lighting compositions will offer a healthy and relaxing work environment for your vision.
3. Equip yourself with equipment to protect your eyes from blue light.
As you know, your screens emit blue light that can be harmful to your eyes. The omnipresence of this light source will increase the risk of serious eye diseases such as cataracts or retinal lesions. Fortunately, there are several tips to reduce the harmful effects of blue light.
First, you can set your computer to limit your exposure. Adjust the brightness according to your environment and the time of day. Very practical, you can also activate the "night shift" or "anti blue light filter" modes on your devices. These will warm up the brightness emitted by your screens to protect you from the ophthalmological dangers linked to their use.
To perfectly complete the protection of your eyes at the office, bet on anti blue light glasses. These will block the reflection of the blue-violet light of the light spectrum by preventing it from penetrating your eye. They will thus offer an additional safety to your work on PC. These protective glasses will effectively limit visual fatigue and the risks of premature aging of your eyes. Accessible to all and very easy to use, they are the idealergonomic accessory to preserve your eyes at the office!
