Back from the drawing board, the newly redesigned Z-Stools by National Public Seating (NPS) are now available to keep you going at your drawing board. The Z-Stools by NPS are fairly new to the market, and now include several upgrades to keep their popularity stong. It was important to NPS to provide a niche solution for the most demanding lab and art environments. The Z-Stool is a stylish seating option for modern classrooms, labs and studios, yet uncompromisingly mammoth in quality and construction. 
The updated lab stool now has an 'eye' shaped tubular steel frame, still constructed in hearty chrome-plated 12-gauge steel. Stools are equipped with an ergonomic blow molded polypropylene seat providing maximum comfort. U-shaped sled base legs with specially designed glides are permanently attached with embedded thermoplastic polyurethane and provide quiet and smooth gliding on all floor types – including VCT tiles.
The Z-Stools are available in three heights; 18", 22" and 24". The 22" and 24" Z-Stools have always had a welded footrest, but with the redesign, these footrests now have an extra rear cross brace for added strength. Footrests and support braces are also chrome-plated 12-gauge steel to support a range of body types.
Another upgrade for NPS's Z-Stool is the newly added fan-back style backrest. These stylish backrests are also made from black blow molded polypropylene and are contoured for continuous comfort. Spend a little extra time on your painting, these backrests have curved cutouts to allow air to circulate around your back while you work.
Cleaning crews love the Z-Stool's ability to hand easily from science lab tables or activity tables while floors are being cleaned. Maybe your classroom doesn't need stools all the time, all Z-Stools are stackable- even with backrests! Form and functionality make the Z-Stool a perfect match for your school lab, artist studio, or even cafe seating.
