Ergonomic Office Chairs

Ergonomic office chairs have been around for a long a time, but often the chair provided is not always the best fit for you. Every human body is shaped differently and getting the right ergonomic chair to fit you can sometimes be tricky.  That’s where Ergoport comes in. Ergoport provides over 75 different chair options to choose from not including different seat options, backrest options, colours, fabrics, bases, headrest and arm rest options. When purchasing an ergonomic office chair there are several things that need to be addressed to find the right ergonomic chair for you.

Have you been recommended a particular chair form an occupational therapist, ergonomist, workplace professional or physiotherapist? Getting recommended the right chair by a professional is a sure way to put your back at ease. Unlike many companies Ergoport recommends to trial an ergonomic chair from us before purchasing so you can be sure you have the right chair. 

Movement in Chairs

There have been several studies over the past few years saying that “sitting is the smoking”, sitting will kill you and that everyone needs to stand! As this conversation matures on sitting vs standing we are finding out that this isn’t really the case.  Lack of movement and sedentary behaviour is what is causing the majority of "sitting" health problems. Contrary to many beliefs there are ergonomic office chairs that can promote movement and prevent sedentary behaviour. An interesting report from the * Karolinska Institute in Stockholm provides evidence that with some chairs such as the HAG Sofi you can get more movement than standing.

Sit Stand Chairs

With the rise of standing desks come new products to help with sitting and standing. Perching stools and sit stand chairs are on the up and up and provide a different seated position to normal sitting or standing. Ergonomic chairs such as the HAG Capisco or the Muvman provide you with good posture and relieve pressure from your lower back all while being in a perching position.

Height Adjustable Desks

Height adjustable desks and retrofit or sit-stand workstations are being introduced into companies all around the world to get people standing more at work.

Research suggests that sitting all day is bad for your health and if you're like most people, you probably spend too much time sitting, whether at the office or at home. Our current culture leads us into an increasingly sedentary lifestyle. We should spend more time standing, walking, and generally moving around. Even if you exercise, the health benefits may be damaged by sitting for prolonged periods of time. Our bodies weren't designed to be in a seated position for prolonged periods of time, yet our jobs demand us to be at a desk. Since a desk is necessary Ergoport recommends using a height adjustable desk.

Health Benefits to Standing Desks

Studies show health benefits of adjustable height desks include:

  • A reduction in musculoskeletal pain
  • Lessening of fatigue, confusion, and tension
  • Improved energy, focus, productivity, collaboration, and creativity
  • Reduced risk of obesity, heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and depression
  • Increased calorie burn while standing

Height adjustable desks also have several health benefits for individuals with bad backs, musculoskeletal and upper limb issues. Standing desks help promote good posture and take you out of that long slouch position which many people can find themselves in while sitting.

More and more studies are showing that sedentary behaviour is a main cause in unhealthy work lifestyles. Standing at work for 10-20 minutes every half an hour can help improve your health. Standing all day can cause problems too, so sitting to relieve tiredness of standing is also recommended. A mix of both sitting and standing along with stretching every 30 minutes is what experts recommend to keep you healthy at work.

We have a number of workplace solutions to get you sitting less and standing more. Ergotron's sit-stand workstations attach to your existing desk and transform from sitting to standing in seconds. Alternatively, if you want to overhaul your current get-up and install electronic, we have that option as well.

We cater for a diverse range of desking situations to ensure you’re engaging in an ergonomically healthy workplace!

If you need help finding the right desk for you or wondering whether a Sit-Stand Desk solution is best, have a look at our Height adjustable desk product guide.

Laptop Stands

A Laptop stand can really help when computing on the go. Whether you are on a train a plane or using your laptop at home a laptop stand can help correct some of the ergonomics that laptop’s lack.

The general rule for screen positioning for monitors was to have your eyes level with the top of the monitor, and this was based on a 17" CRT monitor which had a viewing area of 16" or less. Laptop screens are generally around this size or smaller but the issue is that laptops are at the wrong height for users. Laptop’s normally sit on a desk or your lap where users look down onto the screen promoting poor posture. No matter what size your monitor or screen is you should try to avoid any unnecessary head tilting.

Try to position your eyes so that when you look at the Task Bar at the bottom of the screen or the red cross to close the application at the top right of the screen, you are not tilting your head. If you wear bifocal glasses you will need to position your monitor lower as the reading pane in the glasses is situated at the bottom half. This is not achievable with a laptop as you find yourself looking down on to the screen putting more strain on your neck. A Laptop stand can bring your laptop screen up to a more comfortable level and not put as much strain on your neck.

With more and more people working on the go some nifty ergonomic equipment designed specifically for mobile computing can help you  shift from poor posture to ergonomic health easily. Laptop stands are also portable, small and light weight making them easy to place in your bag with your laptop.

If you use a laptop as your main computer we do recommend that you use an external mouse and keyboard where you can in addition to a laptop stand as this will vastly improve your ergonomic setup.

We have also created an ergonomic monitor arm and stand guide to help you find the right solution for you!
