Walker Mowers Sweden chooses Malmstolen for a better workday

In Växjö, Walker Mowers Sweden AB has worked as the Swedish importer and distributor of Walker Mowers since 1986. From its premises in the northern industrial area, the company sells and markets professional green space machinery to customers ranging from cemeteries, municipalities and golf courses to housing associations and private individuals.

The company is small in numbers, but wide in reach. Walker Mowers is represented across Sweden through an established network of service partners and dealers, where knowledge, accessibility and long-term relationships are an important part of the whole.

When entering Walker Mowers Sweden, you arrive at a workplace where offices, workshop and machines are closely connected. Pontus Herrlin and his colleague Erik have their own offices side by side, right next to the workshop, with direct access to the products, the service work and the practical everyday operations. It is an environment where decisions are made close to the business, and where every part of the workday needs to function well.

For Pontus Herrlin, Managing Director at Walker Mowers Sweden, the choice of office chair therefore became about more than comfort. In a team of two, every person matters, and the work environment has a direct impact on energy, focus and long-term wellbeing.

Before Malmstolen, the chair was something he often noticed during the workday. He kept moving around, suffered from back pain and headaches, and visited a chiropractor. After trying Malmstolen, the difference was clear.

“My back hurts so much less now. Before, I kept moving the chair around. Now I just sit down and can sit well. I feel that my body is doing better,” Pontus explains.

For Walker Mowers, a company that works with machines where function, power and user experience need to work together, the connection to ergonomics felt natural. Just as a machine needs the right grip and the right settings to perform, the body needs the right support to last throughout the day.

“When you are in pain, you lose focus and spend energy on that. When you sit well, you can simply keep working,” says Pontus.

In everyday life, ergonomics is therefore not about technical features. It is about creating the right conditions. The chair should be easy to understand, easy to adjust and work in practice — even for someone who has not previously given much thought to office chairs.

“I was completely uninterested in office chairs before. But once I had tried Malmstolen, I could feel the difference. After that, there is no going back.”

The result is a small but meaningful change in the work environment. In a business where the office sits close to the workshop, and where each workday moves between customer contact, product knowledge and practical problem-solving, sitting well becomes an important part of the whole.

With Malmstolen, Walker Mowers Sweden has created better conditions for focus, comfort and a more sustainable workday — even in a company where every person and every decision counts.
