Standing Desks - Height Adjustable Office Desks

A standing desk can provide many benefits when used correctly, these include:

Posture

If your posture is affected by sitting down in a seat too long, you should seriously consider a standing desk. Bad posture can lead to decreased productivity and muscle pain. Standing throughout the day and using an anti-fatigue mat, can greatly improve your posture.

Increased comfort

A standing desk enables you to change your position and suit your comfort needs. We’ve all experienced the numb feeling that occurs from sitting in a conventional desk and chair for too long. With standing desks, you can quickly adjust its height to a standing position so you never have to sit in discomfort again.

Helps you to remain active

Being stuck in a chair all day is one way to lose motivation. Having options to stand and work keeps your muscles active throughout the day. Standing at your desk also burns more calories than sitting - something to remember the next time you have a slice of office cake!

If you’ve ever worked in an office, you’re familiar with the uncomfortable pain that comes from sitting down in a conventional desk and chair for too long. A height-adjustable standing desk helps to alleviate discomfort by letting you alternate your work position.

Using a standing desk can help increase productivity, boost energy levels, and can also help your muscles to remain active throughout your day.

Our range of standing desks are height adjustable so you have the option to sit or stand. Changing between sitting and standing keeps your body moving and feeling comfortable.

When using a sit stand desk, it’s important to customise the desk to suit your own needs. The great thing about height adjustable desks is that they’re easy to use and can be quickly adjusted to fit any body type.

Most standing desks operate with either a gas-assisted lever or an electronic lever, both levers allow you to change from sitting to standing in a matter of seconds. The Boost Plus Single Sided Height Adjustable Desk uses a preset controller and is one of the more affordable standing desks available on the market.

To find the best position for your desk you should stand up straight, with neutral wrists and your elbows at a 90 degree angle. Then level the desk at the height of your elbows

It’s important to alternate between sitting and standing to get the most benefits from your adjustable standing desks. Although there is no definitive answer as to how long you should be standing at your desk, many ergonomic experts believe that you should stand between 20 - 30 minutes for every hour at your desk.

If this is the first time using a standing desk, it’s suggested to start by standing for a few minutes and gradually work your way up to remain standing for longer. Choosing to stand for too long can also lead to discomfort if you don’t use an anti-fatigue mat. Anti-fatigue mats use a raised bottom to help support healthy muscle activity during periods of standing.
