NPR1813 approved stands for “Dutch Practice Guideline 1813” and has been specifically developed to meet the needs of the Dutch population, which is statistically one of the tallest in the world. This guidance provides detailed specifications for office furniture, especially office chairs, to ensure that they are suitable for a wide range of body sizes, particularly to comfortably accommodate the taller population.

Why is NPR-1813 important?

  1. Inclusivity : NPR-1813 helps design workplaces that are comfortable for almost everyone, including people who fall outside the average sizes covered by standard European standards.
  2. Ergonomics : By complying with this guideline you can be assured of an ergonomic workplace that contributes to the reduction of work-related physical complaints, such as back pain and RSI (repetitive strain injury).
  3. Flexibility : Furniture that meets this standard is often equipped with extensive adjustment options, which is essential to ensure the correct sitting position and comfort for different users.

Difference between NPR-1813 and NEN-EN 1335

While NEN-EN 1335 focuses on general European standards for the dimensions and adjustability of office furniture, NPR-1813 goes a step further by making specific recommendations that better suit the Dutch market. NPR-1813 is more comprehensive in that it provides guidance that ensures suitability for a wider range of body sizes, making it an important addition to EN-1335 for use in the Netherlands.

Implementation in the Workplace

  • Purchasing Office Furniture : When choosing office furniture, it is advisable to select products that comply with the NPR-1813 standard, especially if the workforce is diverse in body type.
  • Workplace design : These standards can serve as a guideline when designing new workplaces or redesigning existing offices.

Conclusion

Following NPR-1813 in addition to NEN-EN 1335 ensures that an office not only meets European standards, but also meets the unique needs of the Dutch population. This ensures greater comfort, better performance and fewer health complaints for users, ultimately leading to a more satisfying and productive work environment.
