JumpSeat, Sedia Systems

This folding chair helps save space in hectic hospital corridors and waiting rooms.

By

In healthcare settings, patient traffic ebbs and flows depending on the time of day and the day of the week. A folding mechanism allows Sedia Systems’ JumpSeat Wall to cantilever from the wall when it is needed and to spring back flush with the wall when it is not. The unit is fitted with a fixed, 1″-thick upholstered cushion, and it is made of 100% pre-consumer recycled plywood.
