Why standing desks are getting more and more popular?

 

In recent years, standing desks have gained popularity due to their numerous benefits:

  • For starters, standing desks help reduce back pain, as they can be adjusted to the right height and posture for the user. They also help improve circulation, as individuals are not hunched over a desk for long periods.
  • Sanding desks may help boost energy levels since you are not sitting in one spot for too long.
  • Standing desks can even lead to better productivity since they allow users to stand and move around while they work. Considering all these advantages, it’s no wonder standing desks have become so popular.

 

Step 1: Gathering Materials

 

The materials needed to manufacture a standing desk vary depending on the type of design. For an industrial-grade desk, the essentials include wood, steel tubing, screws, nuts, bolts, and washers. When selecting wood, consider weight, sturdiness, and stability; plywood and MDF are often great choices.

Stainless-Steel tubing is typically used for the frame of the Desk and should be chosen for its strength and durability; the two frame colors we offer are black and white.

Lastly, the screws, nuts, bolts, and washers will fasten the Desk components together and provide additional stability.

Depending on the style of the Desk, other tools and materials may be necessary, such as a saw or drills.

You can have a sturdy and long-lasting standing desk with the right selection of materials. when it comes to the screen panel for adjustment, we use a variety of materials to fit the adjustable screen panel. Typically, a combination of brackets, threaded rods, linear actuators, and gaskets are necessary to fasten and operate the adjustable screen panel securely. 

 

What are the Sources of these materials used while making a standing desk?
  • When constructing a standing desk, many materials can be used to ensure durability and longevity. Wood is the most common material since it is lightweight and solid. Painting or staining it can also give an aesthetic look that can fit into any room.
  • Another option is a metal such as aluminum, stainless steel, and copper, but we won’t use them.
  • Instead, we collect laminate tops with more than 1000 distinctive designs to match and mix customer needs; our laminates are certified in accordance with Singaporean standards,
  • The certifications of our laminates are Green label, Greenguard, and Microlab.
