Hi anyone who works in an office,
It has been 2 years in the making and we are as focused as ever to make office workers healthier! It is a sad and ridiculous fact that we spend 90% of our waking hours on our butts, when our bodies have evolved to spend most of our daylight hours on our feet.
Office workers are waking up to the fact that prolonged sitting is hurting our health and actually shortening our lives. Progressive companies like Google and Facebook have jumped on the wagon and have turned up to 20% of their sitting desks into standing desks. Countries like Denmark have also jumped on board making it a requirement for all companies to supply standing options for their workers. So what about everyone who doesn’t live in Denmark or work at Google? How can they get off their butts in the office?
For these people we are creating a beautifully simple solution which will sit on an existing desk and allow these workers to stand for part or the whole day. It is the ultimate accessory to turn any desk into a standing desk.
That’s about all we can tell you for the moment but like us on Facebook and you can follow our quest to bring the ZestDesk to market!
Are Standing Desks Good For You?
4,004 hours of sitting per year.
“Working standing at a sit-stand desk is liberating, but having the freedom to adjust the height of our desks to our own unique bodies when sitting is also absolutely crucial for our long-term health. This part isn’t sexy enough either to be mentioned in the hyped-up studies. The one-size fits all approach that desk manufacturers have taken in the past must end.”
