What our partners say about us

"AGR has great communication skills and has helped us to convey Opel's expertise in 'Healthy Sitting' on a high level."

Andrew Leuchtmann
Senior Manager Operational Excellence (OpEx) GME Vehicle Engineering
Adam Opel AG

"Our customers show great acceptance of the seal. Specialist retailers use the seal of approval in their sales literature to verify the quality of the respective product and indicate how back-friendly it is. Increasingly, we see more and more customers asking directly about back-friendly products."

Wolfgang Moosleitner
Head of Sales and Marketing
TOGU GmbH

"It was and is very helpful for us to be able to revert to a partner that is anchored so firmly in the market and that enjoys the trust and confidence of the health associations and sports experts. For us, partnership with the AGR is a long-term strategic decision. We are constantly in close contact and feel well looked after."

Michael Eckerl
CEO
SLASHPIPE GmbH & Co. KG

"To have AGR's backing has helped immensely, with the board of experts giving full support to our ideas. Together with the AGR board, we have really been breaking the ground here to inform medical professionals, health experts and the general public about these new findings."

Josef Glöckl
CEO
aeris GmbH and inventor of the Swopper

"The AGR-Seal of Approval has enormously gained in importance over the last years. It represents a helpful and trustworthy guide in decision making for the consumer. Our own back friendly products gain due appreciation through the AGR certification. Moreover, the AGR provides a platform for an interdisciplinary exchange of ideas."

Nikolaus King
Managing director
officeplus GmbH

"We realise, that customers explicitly ask their retailer for AGR certified chairs. Others come to us because their physiotherapist drew ergonomic solutions to their attention. By now also the retailers pass exams to become certified – therefore one thing has led to another. Tender terms often include the AGR certification as a requirement."

Michael Kläsener
Ergonomics expert
Sedus Stoll AG

“The AGR possesses an outstanding reputation, because it’s neutrality. The mutual aim is a higher one than the enterprising generation of revenues. It is about acting preventive rather than curative, also with safety shoes. From head to toes everything is connected.
Nearly every company doctor and safety officer is familiar with the AGR. To us the AGR Seal of Approval is a conformation of our efforts to do more than simply incorporate a steel cap. We earned ourselves a unique proposition in our sector and we differentiate ourselves therefore from competitors who’s marketing messages partly lack further verification.”
