Standing desks & projector tables

We often spend many hours a day sitting at our desk or working at home. It's not uncommon for us to sit in the same posture while working on our computer. Sitting at a desk offers few opportunities to change our posture or move our entire body. A real alternative to the classic desk is a standing desk (height-adjustable). Modern working environments increasingly offer the opportunity to work standing up for at least a few hours a week and thus promote movement. The desk can also be used as a lectern in meetings or workshops, providing an alternative working height.

The ergonomic standing desk - work better thanks to the right office furniture

The range of height-adjustable standing desks is constantly growing. They are manufactured in many forms:

• Lectern
• Beamer lectern
• Table lectern

In addition, there is a wide variety of possible equipment features. From castors and drawers to tilting desk tops - the individual models impress with very individual features. Ergonomic standing desks are a particularly good choice. They allow the user to make individual adjustments and thus enable optimum movement and height of the work surface. They are height-adjustable, rollable and the tabletop can be adjusted in inclination to create a customised desk. This allows the user to adopt the optimum posture while working at the desk.

Adjusting standing desks correctly

If you want to adjust a height-adjustable standing desk in the office to suit your height, there are a few key points to consider. The centre of the monitor should ideally be at chin height. This allows you to look slightly downwards while working. This relaxes the neck muscles and is also a more comfortable working height for the eyes.

Tip

To avoid overstraining your eyes, you should look away from the monitor for at least 20 seconds every 20 minutes. This gives your eyes a moment to relax and loosen the muscles.

A standing desk with two levels allows you to adjust the height of the monitor and keyboard separately. If you can easily place your arms at a 90° angle next to the keyboard, the height is set correctly. If in doubt, it is better to set the keyboard a little higher than too low. If several people are working at the same desk, a model with simple height adjustment is worthwhile. Standing desks can be precisely and easily adjusted to individual requirements using a rotary wheel.

Using a standing desk in the office - there are many advantages to discover

Whether a private workstation or desk is to be set up or an open-plan office is to be equipped: There are many advantages to using standing desks as a workstation alternative. Anyone who spends the whole day sitting down often has to contend with a number of physical and mental challenges.

The lack of movement leads to fatigue and it can be difficult to concentrate throughout the day. An unfavourable working position leads to muscle tension and back pain - not ideal for performing at your best during the working day. If you work with a standing desk, positive improvements can be realised:

• Better concentration
• Good blood circulation in the legs and back
• Relaxed muscles throughout the body
• Possibility of movement in everyday working life

These characteristics can not only make you feel fit and energised, they can also contribute to better work performance. It is not without reason that more and more employers are deciding to expand the classic furniture in the office with different versions of standing desks.

The right equipment for every application

You can buy a simple standing desk that doesn't need any extras. This type of desk is ideal if the space for the standing workstation is limited or if you are using it as a writing desk, for example. However, you can also get models that are equipped with a variety of extras.

Variants with separately adjustable shelves or drawers are very popular. These provide space for documents or a coffee cup. If this shelf or the desk top can be tilted, it is easier to read documents, for example.

Mobile standing desks are equipped with smooth-running castors. They can be easily moved around the office or home environment. In no time at all, the workstation can be transformed into a lectern that can even be adjusted to the individual height of the speaker.

Compartments, drawers and shelves underneath the table provide sufficient storage space for all important work utensils. The PC tower can be accommodated here. There is space for folders and documents or a printer.

Lectern, projector table and co. - discover a varied range

The lectern is not only suitable for use as a workstation. In conference centres, mobile and stationary lecterns are an integral part of the furnishings. If the working height can be individually adjusted, it is particularly comfortable for speakers to give long presentations.

Beamer table & projection table

If beamers or projectors are used for lectures and presentations, not every room is equipped with a suitable device. A special projector table or projection table allows the device to be transported safely from room to room. The projector table has a tabletop that is large enough to accommodate a beamer or projector. In addition, the dimensions are chosen so that the projector table does not take up too much space. It therefore fits unnoticed between the rows of chairs in the presentation room. The height of the table top can be easily adjusted.

Table lectern

If you don't have enough space to create a separate standing workstation, you can use a mobile desk (height-adjustable). This is attached to a desk or other table top. The attachment usually relies on a simple clamping mechanism. It is not necessary to damage the desk. The desk is not only space-saving - it also allows you to quickly switch between working standing up and sitting down. A good choice if you don't want to switch completely to a standing workstation.

Monitor desk

Another space-saving alternative to the classic standing desk is the monitor desk. It offers a worktop and a support arm to which the monitor is attached separately. The holding arm is usually height-adjustable and allows the monitor to be tilted and rotated. Many manufacturers also equip the monitor desk with a stand for the PC tower.

Laptop table

The laptop table is a special type of standing desk. The tabletop offers enough space for a laptop. Some models also have a small integrated shelf. Good models allow the desk height to be adjusted so that the desk can be used both standing and sitting, thereby promoting health.

The comprehensive range of standing desks allows you to choose a suitable alternative for every environment. This makes the standing desk an important addition to any office furniture range.
