In a chair having a base, a seat defining a fore-to-aft longitudinal axis, a seat back and a tilt control mechanism, a horizontal adjustment mechanism is provided for allowing fore-to-aft movement of the seat relative to the seat back. The mechanism includes a first plate adapted to be coupled to the seat; a second plate adapted to be coupled either directly to the base or to the tilt control mechanism, the second plate being slidably coupled to the first plate such that the two plates can move relative to one another along the longitudinal axis of the seat; an intermediate element positioned between the first and second plates for facilitating relative sliding movement therebetween, and a handle positioned between first and second plates that selectively positions the first plate in relation to the second plate.

A high resiliency elastomeric seating composite adapted for use on a chair is provided. The seating composite includes an adhesive layer positioned between a film layer and an elastomeric net material. The film layer may be formed of urethane, vinyl or a combination thereof and is cast onto a sheet of release paper. The release paper is removed from the film layer and the adhesive layer is positioned between the film layer and elastomeric net material. The film layer, adhesive layer and net material are then flame laminated to form the seating composite. The adhesive layer is formed of a urethane foam material and the elastomeric net material may be formed of a polyester elastomeric material that is woven or biaxially-oriented extruded. In an alternative embodiment, the film layer is cast directly on the net material without the use of the adhesive layer.

A fusible non-woven fibrous web for a quilt batt. The fusible non-woven fibrous web includes a non-woven fibrous web and a heat sealable and releasable adhesive. The adhesive is coated on the outer surface of the web and insinuates between the fibers of the web internally. The adhesive thus binds the fibers of the web and provides a tackiness sufficient to allow the web to be applied to, removed from, and reapplied to a backing material or other fabric.
