As a result of the on-going pandemic, many companies are adopting agile working practices. It is a natural progression for businesses to re-design their workplaces with furniture, sit stand desks and other facilities to match.
What is Agile Working?
Agile working involves the conscious break down of traditional limitations. This involves dedicated desks, static technology, and fixed office design in favour of more innovative approaches to workspaces and working practises. Agile working calls for more freedom around how, when and where we work and the facilitation of different work modes, such as collaboration. It also considers the integration of smart technologies and versatile furniture into the workplace.
Why Sit Stand?
A flexible approach to working is key in today’s world. Many employees choosing to work remotely and coming into the office to just ‘touch base’. This means that fixed working stations are being replaced by collaborative and adjustable working ‘zones’. Not only is this more cost effective in terms of space utilisation, but it also provides employees with the versatility they need to be productive and work how best suits their individual needs. This is where Sit Stand desks can help.
Our height-adjustable frames allow workstations to be quickly and easily adjusted to suit the needs of each individual. From a shared meeting table to a Sit Stand desk, these products are the perfect addition to any modern workplace adopting agile working practises. The desks are manufactured using high quality materials and are produced in different colour framework finishes. This includes white, black, silver and graphite, to fit seamlessly in with your existing décor.
The benefits of Sit Stand
Switching between a sitting and standing position whilst at work is believed to offer a whole host of benefits to employees that traditional static desks cannot:
- Improves well-being
Standing increases blood flow and circulation, which improves your mood and reduces stress levels.
- Enhances energy levels
Standing increases oxygen levels in the body and brain, which can help fight mental fatigue.
- Increases productivity
It has been proven that standing at work improves concentration and alertness, meaning employees will be more productive at work.
- Promotes overall health

According to health experts, standing can reduce neck, back, shoulder and leg pain by 54%.
