LiberNovo Maxis ergonomic chair sets a new standard for tall users

Anyone who has ever used a well-designed ergonomic chair will know the difference it can make to comfort, especially when working long hours. However, tall and tall professionals may struggle to receive the same benefits. This is the problem that LiberNovo Maxis decided to solve — integrating the main innovations of the award-winning LiberNovo Omni, positioned as the world’s first dynamic ergonomic chair, in a design adapted to increasingly tall users. Key features including the Bionic FlexFit Backrest, Dynamic Support System and Motorized Massage Mode have all been retained in the Maxis Series, alongside the premium engineering that helped the Omni win the Red Dot: Product Design 2026 and the iF Design Award 2026.

All the advantages of LiberNovo Omni

The LiberNovo Omni is positioned as the world’s first dynamic ergonomic chair, with an impressive feature set:

  • Bionic FlexFit Backrest
  • Electric lumbar support
  • Dynamic support system
  • 5-position reclining backrest
  • Motorized massage mode
  • AirFlow active seat ventilation
  • Premium materials and engineering

It is these features that have allowed the chair to win several awards: Red Dot: Product Design 2026, iF Design Award 2026 and Greenguard Gold Certification. All these features have been retained in the LiberNovo Maxis.

LiberNovo Maxis

Millions of taller and taller office workers will be familiar with the literal pain of chairs designed around an average height. If the seat is too small, it puts excess pressure on your hips and thighs. Shallow backrests fail to support the full length of a taller spine. Insufficient weight capacity eliminates the responsive tilt that makes modern ergonomic chairs effective.

All of these issues can lead to discomfort at best and chronic lower back pain, sciatica, and hip numbness at worst.

The LiberNovo Maxis series is not simply an extended version of an existing chair. Instead, every structural and ergonomic element has been redesigned based on the dimensions and real problems of Big & Tall users.

Most headrests have limited reach, leaving taller or more muscular users without proper head support. The Maxis headrest not only features an extended adjustment range of up to 120mm, but also a U-shaped curve to ensure perfect alignment every time you sit down.

The backrest is also designed for tall users with broad shoulders and thick backs. It provides full coverage and deep support, while relieving pressure on the hips and lower back during long sitting sessions.

Instead of being straight, the armrests have an arc design to ensure that larger bodies remain comfortable without pressure on the waist. The extended adjustment range allows your arms to rest naturally on the desk without pushing against the abdomen.

Taller users may find themselves with their legs dangling over the edge of a standard-size seat. The Maxis features an extra deep 52cm seat providing full thigh support, promoting circulation, reducing fatigue and ensuring all day comfort.

Finally, the tilt system built into standard chairs can often provide inadequate support, falling back abruptly and creating a feeling of instability. The Maxis uses a 6-spring controlled tilt system, which engages gradually depending on angle and weight, providing a smooth, stable and reassuring tilt.

“Tall and tall users have been neglected for too long when it comes to ergonomic design,” says LiberNovo. “The Maxis series is our answer: not a bigger chair, but one designed from the ground up so that users, regardless of their size, can experience what dynamic ergonomics are meant to deliver. »

The Maxis is available in three models:

  • Maxis manual: lumbar support manually adjusted in the reinforced frame
  • Maxis Electric: motorized lumbar support and OmniStretch for effortless adjustment and deep spinal decompression
  • Max air flow: adds active seat ventilation for sustained comfort during long sessions

Two new LiberNovo Omni models

In addition, the LiberNovo Omni family of chairs is expanding with two new versions: the Omni SE and the Omni Pro.

The Omni SE offers better comfort in a simplified form. It reduces the flagship product to its essential ergonomic elements: manual adjustments, Bionic FlexFit backrest and lower price, making dynamic ergonomics accessible to a wider audience.

At the other end, the Omni Pro is where performance peaks. It enhances the flagship with an integrated active seat ventilation system, specifically designed for power users, creatives and professionals who work long hours and need sustained thermal comfort.
