Comfort is not a luxury, it is essential to your health and general well-being! It’s important for your body to be truly comfortable; this means that the chair you choose needs to be more than just a soft place to sit. An ergonomically correct chair will provide continuous support and comfort and this will prevent your legs and back from becoming tired. Such a chair will relax your body, enabling your blood to circulate more freely. As your back relaxes, your spine is gently supported in the right places and at the correct angle.

1 Leather, textiles, sewing and upholstering Our long experience with complicated furniture products has provided us with important knowledge on how to optimize durability and comfort. Strict control and testing of leather and textiles, together with sewing and upholstering furniture is a very demanding and important craft.

2 Fjords∏Active Release System™ A unique, integrated mechanism providing the best support for the neck. If desired, it can be adjusted further with a single movement in order to optimize your sitting experience.

3 Springs in the back and seat optimize comfort In addition to cold cure moulded foam in the seat and back, we also use springs that further enhance comfort.

4 Steel back and seat design Our main steel structures are constructed and produced in a manner that satisfies our strict quality requirements.

5 Seat and back with Dacron fibres In order to provide the back and seat elements with extra softness and improved comfort, a carefully adapted layer of Dacron fibre is inserted between the upholstery and foam. Certain models have more or less than others in order to optimize design and comfort.

6 Gliding steel mountings The unique gliding mountings that are built-in to our chairs and sofa provide the best individual resting position, because the weight of the body determines the position.

7 Cold cure moulded foam in back, seat, armrest and footstool When moulding polyurethane foam, which we usually use, the foam is moulded in casts that have the exact shape of the product.

There are considerable differences between block foam and moulded cold cure foam when it comes to the durability of its physical appearance. Block foam tends to lose its suppleness after a few years of everyday use. This makes it softer as time passes. Cast moulded cold cure foam retains its suppleness longer than block moulded foam.

8 Laminated wooden bases Laminated wooden elements are selected for several of our bases because they provide durability and comfort. They also enable many exiting design opportunities. To- day Hjellegjerde are proud to be a part of this unique, traditional craft. Wood remains an important material in the development of tomorrow’s furniture. All colours are stained and lacquered.

Furniture manufacture started on a small scale in 1941 in the cellar of the Hjellegjerde® family in Sykkylven, a fjord village in Møre and Romsdal. The brothers Otto and Mindor Hjellegjerde were the original founders.

As the years went by, the cellar was constantly being enlarged to allow an increase in production, and the third brother, Ingvald, joined the company in 1946.

With great involvement and a burning desire to create something, the brothers built a business that has become one of Norway’s largest furniture groups and an important player in the development of the Norwegian furniture industry.
