Body. Planet. Materials.
At Orgatec 2026, Humanscale explores how human-centred design can create healthier, more intuitive ways to work — while making a positive impact on the planet.
Discover design for the changing ways we work. From focused work and collaboration to conversation and respite, experience new materials, products and ideas created to support people wherever work happens.
At the heart of the exhibition is TexMesh™, a new expression of performance seating that combines responsive support and breathability with the warmth and tactile character of upholstery. Alongside it, discover new solutions for seating, meeting, power and more.

Stand Talk – Beyond the Desk: Designing for Real Human Behaviour
Wednesday 28 October, 3:30 PM
Humanscale Stand, Hall 7.1
How do we design workplaces around the way people actually behave?
Join Architonic Editor-in-Chief Simon Keane-Cowell and Humanscale VP, Design & Innovation Sergio Silva for a conversation exploring how observation, research and continuous testing can turn real human behaviour into simpler, healthier and more intuitive design.
From individual workstations to meeting rooms, lounges, cafés and the home, the discussion will consider what happens when ergonomics moves beyond the desk — and begins to shape the entire workplace experience.
TexMesh™ – Performance, Reimagined
Introducing a new back option for Liberty, World and Smart chairs, designed to give performance seating a richer, more tailored expression.
Re-engineered from Kvadrat’s Autumn textile, TexMesh™ combines the airflow and responsive support of mesh with the warmth, colour and tactile quality of upholstery — giving designers greater creative freedom without compromising ergonomic performance.
eFloat Quattro Studio – Made for collaboration
A purpose-built meeting table for today’s hybrid workplace, eFloat Quattro Studio brings power, connectivity and display support together in one integrated solution.
Designed for groups of two to seven, it supports both seated and standing collaboration while creating a simpler, more flexible meeting experience.
Diffrient Lounge – Comfort beyond the desk
One of the final concepts envisioned by legendary designer Niels Diffrient, Diffrient Lounge brings residential comfort together with Humanscale’s ergonomic engineering.
Recently recognised with a Red Dot Award in Product Design, it is designed for the increasingly fluid relationship between work, relaxation and informal collaboration.
M/Charge Power – Wherever Work Happens
A modular 2-in-1 magnetic wireless charging solution, M/Charge brings effortless power to the workspace. Designed to integrate with the M/Connect 3 ecosystem or work independently as a standalone charging dock, it keeps devices powered without adding unnecessary complexity.
