Products in Review: Ergonomics in the Modern Workplace

The rise of innovative ergonomic products has reshaped the office landscape, focusing on creating safer and healthier environments for employees. One area of significant advancement has been the introduction of sit/stand workstations. The trend of sitting at a desk all day is being replaced by more dynamic work setups that encourage movement throughout the day.

Over the past six months, we’ve seen a surge in demand for two standout products: the Ergotron WorkFit and the Selectric Sit/Stand Desk. Both offer unique benefits, ensuring comfort, flexibility, and improved productivity. Below, we take a closer look at these two ergonomic solutions.

1. Ergotron WorkFit: On-Desk Flexibility

The Ergotron WorkFit is a versatile, on-desk solution designed to allow seamless transition between sitting and standing. This lightweight, portable product fits on top of existing desks, offering flexibility without the need for permanent installation. Available in both white and black, it blends effortlessly into any office design.

  • Height Adjustment: Ranges from 120mm to 510mm above the desk

2. Selectric Sit/Stand Desk: Permanent Ergonomic Solutions

For those seeking a more robust, integrated solution, the Selectric Sit/Stand Desk offers the ideal balance of form and function. With an electrically operated system, this desk adjusts smoothly to accommodate workers of any height.
