2E height-adjustable desks: a solution for health and productivity
Modern trends and requirements for workspaces have significantly changed, even affecting the place where we spend the lion’s share of our working hours. Today, it is no longer just an office but a personally created workspace that each person adapted to their needs over two years of the pandemic and two and a half years of war to maintain and improve productivity.
One of the key innovations was the introduction of height-adjustable desks. These pieces of furniture gained popularity due to the numerous benefits they provide to users. Let’s explore the main reasons why height-adjustable desks are increasingly chosen for office and home workspaces.
Health care. The primary reason for choosing height-adjustable desks is health care. Prolonged sitting can lead to the development of various health issues, including back problems, obesity, cardiovascular diseases, and even depression. Using desks that allow for working both sitting and standing helps reduce these risks. Transitioning from a sitting to a standing position during the workday promotes better blood circulation, reduces spinal strain and increases overall physical activity.
Improved productivity. According to research, changing positions during work positively affects productivity. Working while standing helps boost energy levels, improve concentration and reduce fatigue. Periodic standing during work also promotes better information retention and more effective decision-making. Working in an office typically involves more activity and lively communication with colleagues, while now workers are now mostly tied to their workstations, with communication taking place through video and audio calls.
Personal setting. Everyone has specific physical characteristics and preferences regarding workspace organization. Height-adjustable desks allow to organize the workspace according to individual needs, ensuring comfort and ergonomics. This is particularly important for those with specific requirements for their work position due to medical reasons.
Workflow diversity. The ability to change body position helps diversify the work process, avoid monotony and maintain a high level of motivation. Changing positions, such as standing while working, is particularly beneficial when performing creative tasks or during meetings.
It is a misconception that these desks are only intended for gamers, as their gaming sessions can sometimes last far too long. Most workers also spend a lot of time at their desks, so it would not hurt them to take care of their health. With 2E height-adjustable desks, the workflow of a seamstress, designer or anyone else working at a desk can become much more efficient.
Currently, the 2E range includes four height-adjustable models.
