As workplaces change and technology moves forward, innovative ergonomic solutions are making a big difference in creating healthier, more comfortable spaces for employees.

Sore wrists. A stiff neck. A tired back. 

Spend any amount of time working on an office computer with a keyboard that’s just not positioned correctly, and you’ll likely walk away feeling some discomfort. 

If your office or classroom is spending a good portion of its day sitting at a desk and working on a computer, you probably already know how important it is to promote correct office ergonomics. A healthy work lifestyle reduces back, neck, and eye strain, as well as the risk of desk job-related injuries like carpal tunnel syndrome.

Universities and learning institutions are dynamic environments where knowledge is shared, discoveries are made, and the next generation of healthcare professionals is shaped. 

While hospitality design trends come and go (and then tend to come back again), the latest wave of hotel interior design seems to be leaning more traditional and toward creating a warm, welcoming ambiance. 

From country roads to major highways, you'll likely spot more boutique hotels than vast chains. Even near big cities, boutique hotels are gaining traction. 

Globally, today's clientele values the "experience" aspect of their purchases. This holds for an awaited online package, a meal at a themed eatery, and beyond. 

Hotels and motels are striving to offer that distinct experience.

Furnishing your office is a big decision. There are a lot of factors to consider, like your team's comfort and health, an appealing aesthetic, cost, and durability. 

The benefits of integrating ergonomically designed furniture and equipment are well documented and include a wide range of health, safety, and comfort benefits. 

In medical environments, ergonomics are especially important because of the multitude of people they can impact -- and we’re not just talking about patients.

As more companies and industries realize the benefits of implementing ergonomic equipment, more and more equipment claims to be “ergonomically” designed. And since ergonomic equipment is beneficial everywhere from the grocery store to the construction site, it’s important (and ever-more challenging to weed out the posers. 

The way people work is changing, so the modern office (or home office!) should change to accommodate employee habits. 

If you’re considering new office furniture, it's essential to think about what your office needs. Do you need durable pieces that will last for years? Do you want to prioritize comfort and ergonomics?

Today “motion control” implies automation, robotics, and electronics. But you’d be amazed at what you can achieve when you combine old-fashioned mechanical engineering with a creativity-minded manufacturer.
