Sit-stand desks

Conventionally, as office-based workers we’d spend the bulk of our working lives sitting at our desks, most likely in front of our computers. While this may have led to us being perceived as hard working and efficient, without us knowing it could actually have been harming our health. Several recent studies have highlighted the detrimental side-effects of sitting for long periods, and that’s led to a growth in popularity of the sit-stand desk.

Since our bodies are designed to stand and not sit, alternating between sitting and standing at your desk can be beneficial in a number of areas. At a fundamental level, standing strengthens the muscles in your legs, is kinder on your back and improves your circulation, making you less prone to blood clots. Standing also potentially lessens the likelihood of cardiovascular disease and can generate the satisfaction of having achieved more each day. And standing can make you feel more dynamic, alert and creative, rather than being slumped in a chair and lacking in energy and enthusiasm.

Our range of sit-stand desks delivers all these benefits and more. They’re completely height adjustable to suit your needs, and they’re available in a number of styles, finishes, colours and price points. Most sit-stand desks feature cable management to avoid trailing wires and create a clean and elegant working environment. Our sit-stand catalogues are available here and here.
