LiberNovo to Showcase Dynamic Ergonomic Seating at IFA 2026 and Support Special Olympics New York

The Maxis Series leads the stand, alongside the LiberNovo Omni Pro and LiberNovo Omni SE. LiberNovo Omni Pro has also earned nominations in two IFA Innovation Awards categories: Best in Design and Best in Tech for Good & Accessibility.

Founded in 1924, IFA is a leading global event for consumer technology and home appliances, connecting brands, retailers, buyers, media and creators. Product launches, demonstrations and industry meetings help shape technology conversations beyond Berlin. The 2026 theme, "The future is now," highlights AI, smart home, health technology and connected living. As hybrid work, gaming and content creation extend sitting time, LiberNovo is presenting ergonomic seating as an active support system rather than a static object.

Maxis Series: Built for Bigger Builds

Maxis was designed for taller, broader and heavier users rather than scaled up from a standard model. Its 52 cm (20.5-inch) seat depth and wider cushion provide more room to shift and greater thigh support. Multi-density foam is firmer toward the back to support the sitting bones and softer toward the front to reduce pressure on the thighs. A reinforced frame, aluminum-alloy base and four-direction armrests create a stable platform for long work, gaming and creative sessions.

All three versions offer five-stage recline from 105° to 160°, with progressive springs helping the chair hold steady support through each position. Maxis Manual uses a knob to set lumbar depth. Maxis Electric adds motorized lumbar support and OmniStretch, a button-activated guided back stretch. Maxis Airflow adds Active Airflow seat ventilation for extended sessions in warmer environments.

"Most big and tall chairs are a standard chair with the dimensions turned up. That gets you more surface and the same problem," said Yanle, Founder and CEO of LiberNovo. "We built Maxis around how a bigger frame loads a chair across a full day. Berlin is the first place people can sit in all three versions and judge that for themselves."

Dynamic Ergonomics That Follows the Body

LiberNovo's Dynamic Ergonomics principle is that support should follow posture changes, work rhythm and the need to reset instead of asking the user to remain fixed. Across the lineup, lumbar depth can be adjusted to the individual back, while the recline range supports focused desk work through full relaxation. Responsive neck support sits against the cervical spine rather than pushing at the back of the skull, and its angle changes through recline to help keep the user's eyeline oriented toward the screen.

The Omni Pro expands this approach with motorized lumbar adjustment, OmniStretch and Active Airflow ventilation. The manually adjusted Omni SE provides a practical entry point to Dynamic Ergonomics. Both complement the Maxis Series in a lineup designed around different body types, preferences and working styles.

Supporting Special Olympics New York

LiberNovo is sponsoring Special Olympics New York with a donation of LiberNovo Omni ergonomic chairs to support office teams across three locations: the Albany headquarters, NYC office, and Long Island office.

Since 1968, Special Olympics has grown into a global movement creating opportunities for people with intellectual disabilities to participate, be respected, and be seen. The mission is built not just by athletes, but by an entire community working behind the scenes, coordinating events, managing volunteers, and connecting families to opportunity, often with little visibility of their own.

This sponsorship is LiberNovo's way of standing behind that work. Ergonomic design is not only about product performance. It is also about recognizing that the people who make inclusion possible deserve support too. As LiberNovo continues to expand its presence across international markets, sponsorships like this reflect a broader commitment: designing for the people who show up every day to build something bigger than themselves.

This marks an early step in a relationship LiberNovo hopes to grow, one rooted in shared values, not just brand visibility.
