From Comfort to Recovery: How ST CloudZero® Supports Wellness-Driven Design
Published:

The expectations placed on motion furniture are evolving. Comfort is still core, but it’s no longer enough on its own.
Today’s users expect furniture to support recovery. To improve posture. To align with how they live and relax at home.
At Leggett & Platt, we saw this shift coming. And we designed ST CloudZero® to meet it head-on with an elevated recline experience that speaks directly to the growing demand for wellness.
What Makes ST CloudZero® Different
The ST CloudZero® was engineered to elevate the legs above heart level – a position shown to improve venous return and reduce pressure on the lower back. Whether the end user is decompressing after work or recovering from surgery, the recline delivers real, research-backed benefits.
This is more than a feature. It’s an opportunity for OEM partners to introduce a product feature rooted in real human outcomes.
Backed by research, easy to integrate, and built for repeatable production, ST CloudZero® supports the kind of wellness story that stands out in the showroom and holds up in the home.
Why Wellness is the Future of Recline
According to a 2023 Furniture Today report, “wellness-driven design” is one of the top five trends shaping motion seating. ST CloudZero® gives our key partners a turnkey solution to deliver on this expectation – without requiring a new frame or complex integration.
It’s comfort, redefined for the modern user.
If end consumers are looking for more than relaxation, ST CloudZero® is the answer. Designed to support wellness, engineered for manufacturability, and protected by patent, it’s the motion feature that can anchor a wellness story with substance.
It’s The Pitch That Rules Them All™ – because it starts with what matters most: the end user.
