Importance of ergonomics

Ergonomics is designing for people and reducing discomfort. An ergonomic home office will help reduce pain and prevent musculoskeletal disorders that can occur when you sit or work on a laptop for long periods of time. Though we work with many manufactures that deal with ergonomics, Herman Miller and Humanscale are leading the way in the in the industry. These products take in account the movement we need throughout the day. While traditional office furniture does not provide movement with their fixed posture settings. Mixing a balance between sitting and standing, is a proven way to combat the effects of sedentary workplace behavior. Below you will find a couple of our favorite products and manufactures that promote a healthy work environment.

Herman Miller Aeron Chair

After nearly a decade of research and design Herman Miller’s Aeron Chair was introduced. It has been best selling task chair ever since. The iconic chair was remastered in 2017 with fresh new designs and updates. In addition, the Aeron is an investment that will provide comfort and ergonomics for a lifetime.

HumanScale QuickStand Eco

Lastly, like the rest of HumanScale’s ergonomic designs, the QuickStand Eco is one of the leading portable sit/stand desk solutions in the industry. It offers simple set up and portability. The award-winning QuickStand Eco transforms any desktop into a healthy, active workstation.
