Description
Most ergonomic chairs ask you to sit still. The LiberNovo Omni SE is built on the opposite idea: a headrest, backrest, seat and armrests that keep moving with you, so support doesn't stop when you shift, lean or recline. It's the manual-adjust member of LiberNovo's Omni family — the same dynamic platform, tuned by hand rather than by motor — and it holds an iF Design Award 2026 and a Red Dot award.
A backrest that bends the way spines do
The Bionic FlexFit backrest is built from eight flexible panels on sixteen pivot points. Slide the manual lumbar bar to where your back wants it and the panels form an S-shaped support profile that holds through every recline angle — no motors, nothing to charge.
Support that tracks you
- Headrest angles with your head to keep your gaze level
- Backrest follows your spine through every shift
- Seat adjusts with your posture to keep your hips aligned
- Armrests move with your arms instead of blocking them
Five ways to sit
Lock the recline at 105°, 115°, 125°, 135° or a full 160° — upright, deep-focus work at one end, close-to-flat recovery at the other. 4D armrests and a 3D-adjustable headrest tune the details.
Comfort engineering
- Neck cushion built on hydrophilic memory foam — breathable where conventional memory foam runs hot
- Three-zone seat: a softer front edge for thigh pressure relief, a contouring middle, and a firmer rear zone that keeps the pelvis stable
- Micro-elastic performance fabric, abrasion-tested past 50,000 rubs
Tested like contract furniture
BIFMA X5.1 certified, with the recline mechanism tested to 300,000 cycles and the backrest, swivel and gas lift to 120,000 cycles each. GREENGUARD and TB117 certified. Rated for heights of 153–186 cm and loads to 136 kg (BIFMA).
Bundle, assembly and warranty
- Standard bundle: chair plus the StepSync footrest (items may arrive as separate parcels)
- The chair arrives fully assembled — no build step, just unbox and adjust
- Manufacturer warranty: 5 years on the frame, 2 years on electronic components (LiberNovo)

What’s in the box
Backrest
Eight panels. Sixteen pivots. One adaptable spine.
The Bionic FlexFit backrest is built from eight flexible panels on sixteen pivot points. Slide the manual lumbar bar to where your back wants it and the panels form an S-shaped support profile that holds through every recline angle — no motors, nothing to charge.
Dynamic support
Support that moves when you do
Four contact points track your movement: the headrest angles with your head to keep your gaze level, the backrest follows your spine, the seat shifts with your posture and the armrests move with your arms. Support continues while you move — not only while you sit still.
Recline
Five locked angles, 105° to 160°
Lock in at 105°, 115°, 125°, 135° or a full 160° — upright, deep-focus work at one end and close-to-flat recovery at the other. 4D armrests and a 3D-adjustable headrest tune the fit at every angle.
Comfort
Zoned cushioning and a neck rest that breathes
The neck cushion is built on hydrophilic memory foam — breathable where conventional memory foam runs hot. Below it, a three-zone seat pairs a softer front edge for thigh relief with a firmer rear zone that keeps the pelvis stable, wrapped in micro-elastic fabric tested past 50,000 abrasion rubs.
Proven
Certified, then tested past the standard
BIFMA X5.1 certified, with the recline mechanism tested to 300,000 cycles and the backrest, swivel and gas lift to 120,000 each. GREENGUARD and TB117 certified — and recognised with an iF Design Award 2026 and a Red Dot award.

Questions
Before you order
Will the Omni SE fit me?
It's rated for heights of roughly 153–186 cm and loads up to 136 kg under the BIFMA test standard (the European EN1335 rating is 110 kg). Two seat depths — 45 cm and 48 cm — let longer legs take the deeper seat.
What does 'dynamic' actually mean here?
Four contact points track your movement: the headrest angles with your head, the backrest follows your spine, the seat shifts with your posture and the armrests move with your arms — so support continues while you move, not only while you sit still.
How is the SE different from the Omni and Omni Pro?
All three share the FlexFit backrest and dynamic tracking. The SE is the manual edition — a hand-set lumbar bar, nothing to charge. The Omni adds a chip-controlled ErgoPulse motor with a motorised spinal stretch; the Omni Pro adds that plus an actively ventilated seat, Danish Gabriel Atlantic upholstery and a reinforced aluminium-alloy base.
Why does the recline start at 105° rather than a bolt-upright 90°?
The most upright lock is a slightly open 105°. Keeping a small opening between torso and thighs reduces pressure on the lower spine compared with sitting at a rigid right angle — you stay engaged without perching.
Does it need assembly?
No — the chair arrives fully assembled: unbox, adjust and sit. (The bundled StepSync footrest may arrive as its own parcel.)
Which seat depth should I choose?
45 cm suits average builds; 48 cm gives longer thighs fuller support. A good check: sit with two to three fingers of space between the front edge of the seat and the back of your knees.
