Standing desks address a variety of health risks caused by sitting down at our desks all day long. The NHS has conducted conclusive studies that have demonstrated the benefits of working while standing.
A scientific study was conducted in the 1950’s that showed bus drivers as being twice as likely to die from heart failure and various other diseases in comparison to bus conductors. It was found that this was related directly to working while sitting for most of the day.
This is why you should care:
Standing desks are meant to address postural issues related to upper and lower cross syndrome. The HumbleWorks range does this effectively by ensuring that the user really does face the screen at eye level.
The Stan 1 and Stan 2 will help you to improve your productivity, improve your posture, and prevent countless health issues brought on by sitting slouched over for hours at a time.
The HumbleWorks range is designed based on solid engineering principals. This is why it’s possible to even raise a large Desktop screen up to your eye level. The Stainless-steel cables at the back ensure there is no bounce on the keyboard, while typing, and ensures that your whole standing desk is tightly pulled together for strength and most importantly, stability.
The whole range is easy to setup, store, carry and transport. It’s one of the only standing desks that can be packed flat and carried away with one hand. Instead of manufacturing with metal and plastics, we prefer the warm, welcoming feeling of sustainably sourced wood. It’s also a more carbon neutral option than the alternatives.

“When I was halfway through writing my book, my body suddenly couldn't take it any more. All that sitting had seized me up. I bought a stand-up desk, and haven't looked back. I've already saved twice the price of it in osteopath's fees, as I haven't had to visit him since.”

"…thank you for my beautiful desk and the complimentary longer shelf!! I adore it – it is awesome – and I promise to share and rave on social media as soon as my desk is tidy enough to tweet! Thanks so much again, Lucy"

"Not all sit-stand desks rely on motors and fancy mechanisms, and if you don’t want a permanent sit-stand option then this birch plywood desk offers both laptop and desktop users the opportunity to feel the benefits of standing on posture and productivity."
"Crafted from high-quality birch plywood, its lightweight, modular design means it can be quickly and easily packed away, while its small footprint won't take up too much space on your desk. Capable of supporting a monitor and a laptop with easily adjustable configurations."
"The British-made HumbleWorks desk comes with two taut steel “guy ropes” at the back. This is to nullify the noticeable bounce you might find with their competitor's keyboard platforms if you hammer the Qwerty."
