Integra Seating, will introduce major additions to its award-winning Odyssey Collection.

Building upon the original Odyssey seating - recipient of the Best of NeoCon Gold Award in the Healthcare › Guest & Lounge Seating category and a Nightingale Gold Award – these new additions transform Odyssey into a more comprehensive seating and table collection designed to support the rigorous needs of today’s commercial healthcare, education, workplace, and public environments.

Visitors to Integra’s showroom, 10-140 on the 10th floor of THE MART, will experience the Odyssey Collection Expanded for the first time, with new counter-height (24” seat height) and bar-height (30” seat height) stools, the Odyssey System with Connecting Brackets, integrated End and In-line tables, freestanding tables in 16” and 21” diameters available in both 21” and 27” heights with solid surface tops, and a new Personal Item Shelf. Together, these additions transform the Odyssey from a standalone seating solution into a flexible system capable of supporting collaborative, transitional and high-density commercial spaces.The new products carry forward the defining design that established Odyssey within the industry: a continuous wraparound form finished with a solid-surface cap available in a wide range of stocked colors. This wraparound form also performs as an integrated handle for ease of movement.

The Odyssey Collection Expanded preserves and amplifies every quality hallmark that earned the original its industry acclaim. Dymetrol suspension integrated into a plywood seat delivers exceptional seating comfort, while the collection’s component-based construction and Integra’s innovative hook and clip upholstery system, enables simple
textile replacement, dramatically reducing maintenance labor and long-term lifecycle costs. Slim tapered legs and a refined silhouette give the collection its light, airy presence, while a minimum static load capacity of 1,200 lbs. ensures it performs in the most demanding high-use environments.

“Odyssey resonates strongly within the industry because it addresses real needs in a thoughtful way,” says Chandra Putnam, Integra’s President. “It reflects the core principles that guide our work – high performance products with intelligent construction, and design that contributes meaningfully to a space. The high-performance approach
that distinguishes Integra and the Odyssey Collection in the market is a result of years of collaboration with designers, specifiers, and facilities personnel to better understand the demands placed on high-use seating. With the Odyssey Collection Expanded, we’ve built upon that foundation and the award-winning attributes to offer a collection with even greater versatility, functionality, and impact.”

The full Odyssey collection earned BIFMA Level 1 Certification, Level Credit 7.4.4 for Target Chemical Elimination, and Clean Air Gold Certification, credentials that directly support specification in healthcare, education, workplace, and other commercial spaces.

The Odyssey Collection Expanded launch at NeoCon 2026 illustrates Integra Seating’s ongoing commitment to innovation in commercial seating solutions. These new additions not only broaden the collection’s planning flexibility but also reinforce the brand’s philosophy that high-performance seating and refined design can seamlessly coexist. New connecting brackets enable standard Odyssey chairs to be configured into clean, organized seating arrangements. The solid surface in-line and end tables, as well as the under-seat shelf beautifully integrate with the seating to provide convenient surface areas and storage for personal belongings, reducing the need for additional furniture and maintaining a clean, cohesive aesthetic throughout any space.
