Join the Sit Stand Revolution!
A height adjustable desk allows you to raise and lower your work surface and monitor throughout the day, enabling you to sit or stand while working. Height adjustable desks, also called sit-stand desks or standing desks, are sturdy and easy to use.
If you're like most people, there's a good chance you spend too much time sitting. As a society, we are faced with living increasingly sedentary lifestyles when we should spend more time standing, walking, and moving around. But since that may not always be possible, we recommend a height adjustable desk. A brief standing break at a height adjustable desk increases circulation and cogitation, burns more calories than sitting does, and helps stave off side effects of a sedentary lifestyle.
Why would anyone want to stand while working? Research has shown numerous health benefits associated with standing for as few as fifteen minutes for every hour spent on the job. Standing desks help to burn more calories, increase circulation, and improve productivity and alertness.
We offer a wide variety of height adjustable desks to fit any budget and space. We have simple single column desks, L-shaped corner desks, and even the newly introduced treadmill desks that allow you to exercise while you work.
Our most popular range are the mimek series made by ConSet which has a wide variety of desk frame styles, sizes and tops which means no matter what design you chose, you will have an ergonomic and stylish workstation.
The electric frames are high-powered motors which offer quick adjustment, whisper-quiet operation, and higher weight capacities than crank or pneumatic desks. They're easy to adjust and people tend to use them more often, which is the whole point. Some frames go as low as 540mm, and some up to 1300mm high, with a variety of weight capacities from 70 to 300 kgs.
When setting up a workstation there are many factors that need to be considered. Flexibility for the wide array of jobs performed must be taken into consideration along with the correct ergonomic set up to ensure that it can be as well suited to the modern workplace as well as the modern worker.
