ABOUT US
At Gregory we consider the intricate
harmony of the human body to be critical. We strive to preserve
this balance, aiming to prevent the damage resulting from sitting
incorrectly for long periods of time. To this end we are guided
by a philosophy of body centred design.
Our approach does not simply finish
with a chair adapted to support your frame. We employ a holistic
philosophy to design, extending ergonomics to encompass your entire
well-being.
Our first chair was developed in 1987
by physiotherapist and company founder, Peter Gregory, to address
the largest cause of occupational back pain in Australian office
workers - the office chair. His knowledge of the anatomical reasons
for chronic back pain and his precise observations of correct seating
posture, lead to the development of the unique and exclusive dual
density posture support system. This internationally patented
design is at the very core of all Gregory chairs. No other office
chairs in the world incorporate this dual density seat.
Gregory Commercial Furniture Pty Limited operates
from a 3,300 square metre (approx 33,000 square feet) purpose built
facility and showroom located at Wetherill Park in the outer western
suburbs of Sydney, New South Wales. The Victorian sales office
and showroom is located in the heart of the business district of
Melbourne. Gregory operates nationally through a network of distributors
and service agents and its own dedicated sales force.
We have grown to become one of the
largest manufacturers of office chairs in Australia made predominantly
from Australian sourced components. Our clients are amongst the
greatest icons of Australian commerce and government bodies including
the NRMA, WESTPAC, AMP and NSW GOVERNMENT departments. In April
1999 the company was listed on the ASX and continues to be active
in preparing for continued growth.
