After exhibiting the Quickstand at Orgatec 2014, they are ready to present it to the public. Orgatec is the leading trade fair for office furniture and equipment held in Cologne, Germany and is essentially a gathering of who’s who in the office design world.

Awareness of the health benefits of movement throughout the working day is on the rise and Humanscale have risen to the challenge of submitting a revolutionary solution.

The Quickstand is a device which is attached to your desk to enable it to become height adjustable without having to buy a whole new desk. The idea is to encourage the user to sit and stand intermittently throughout the day and for many reasons, this method of working is quickly gaining popularity in workplaces worldwide. The advantages of transforming your workstation into a sit/stand workstation include increased productivity and concentration and can even burn around 400 more calories a day than sitting.

Those of you who are lacking the space to fit a new height adjustable desk can rest assured that the Quickstand easily clips to any desk and allows the user to effortlessly alter the height of their monitor and keyboard.
