BOWLING GREEN, Ohio , April 18, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- BioFit Engineered Products, a global leader in the design and manufacture of ergonomic furnishings, announced today that all seating model configurations include seat-height-adjustment pneumatic cylinder assemblies equipped with wiper seals. This improvement is intended to further enhance the integrity and performance of the company's seating products.

BioFit offers two extensive lines of ergonomic technical seating with units that can be configured for use in many applications and environments, including conditions that expose specific models to varying levels of particulates, dust, dirt and humidity. To inhibit these potentially damaging contaminants and moisture from entering the seat-height-adjustment pneumatic cylinder assembly while also optimizing lubrication of the assembly piston rod, all BioFit seating now features wiper seals fitted on the external side of the cylinder tube.

Pneumatic wiper seals maintain sealing contact to the pneumatic assembly piston rod when the chair is not in use or when the seat height is not being adjusted (i.e., when the piston rod of the pneumatic assembly is stationary). And, when the chair is in use or when the seat height is being adjusted ‒ when the assembly piston rod is in motion. By protecting the seating pneumatic assemblies from contaminant penetration and assuring only the minimum amount of lubricant required for proper functionality is applied to the piston rod on each seat height adjustment, wiper seals enhance pneumatic assembly reliability, contributing to smooth and seamless height-adjustment functionality over the life of the chair.

According to John DeVriendt , BioFit Director of Operations, the official announcement of pneumatic wiper seal availability across the company's seating lines completes a nearly two-year process: "In 2020, we started introducing pneumatics of various adjustment heights and metal finishes with wiper seals. Even though these components weren't difficult to integrate once we approved the initial design, we had an inventory of our most popular pneumatic assembly sizes to exhaust before we could completely introduce it on models across both our MVMT® and Foundation seating lines. Today, we're excited to offer this feature as it provides an even higher degree of dependability, performance and quality to our seating." Of note, BioFit seat-height assembly pneumatics already carried a lifetime warranty.

Headquartered in Bowling Green, Ohio , BioFit Engineered Products is an industry-leading manufacturer of LEED® compliant ergonomic seating, GREENGUARD Gold certified cafeteria and mobile folding tables, book trucks, carts, and specialty products for high-tech, laboratory, healthcare, industrial, education, office and custom applications.

Bridgewater’s co–chief investment officer said the U.S. economy could slow down further.

The rate of U.S. inflation reached a 40-year high of 8.6% in May as overall prices for things including rent, gas and food all remain on the rise. “I personally believe that this inflation is here to stay for quite some time,” Orman recently told CNBC, prior to the release of May’s CPI data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The first is a fixed rate when the purchaser buys the bond, and the second is the inflation adjustment rate, which is reset every six months based on inflation.

The U.S. hasn't yet entered a recession -- which is officially defined as two consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth -- but runaway inflation, stagnant wages, food shortages, rising interest rates, and geopolitical turmoil could all break this fragile economy's back in the near future.

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) -U.S. President Joe Biden on Friday accused the U.S. oil industry, and Exxon Mobil Corp in particular, of capitalizing on a supply shortage to fatten profits after a report showed inflation surging to a new 40-year record. Biden, who came into office vowing to reduce U.S. dependence on fossil fuels, said on Friday he was hoping to speed up oil production, which is expected to hit record highs in the United States next year. But he also issued a warning to the industry, whose profits have jumped with oil and gas prices, pointing to the gains as evidence consumers are paying for more than higher labor and shipping costs.

The relaunch will begin on Russia Day, a patriotic holiday celebrating the country's independence, at the same flagship location in Moscow's Pushkin Square where McDonald's first opened in Russia in January 1990. In the early 1990s, as the Soviet Union crumbled, McDonald's came to embody a thawing of Cold War tensions and was a vehicle for millions of Russians to sample American food and culture. The brand's exit is now a powerful symbol of how Russia and the West are once again turning their backs on each other.

What to do in today’s market? The last few trading sessions of declining stocks would seem to indicate that the late-May rally we saw has run its course. But that doesn’t mean the opportunities for buy-minded investors are all gone. The recent declines, and the overall downward trend we’ve seen year-to-date, have left many fundamentally sound stocks trading at rock bottom prices. And that may have created an opportunity for investors willing do a bit of bottom fishing. The trick for investors, h
