“Companies based in Silicon Valley are leaders in building active office environments, and at the core of those offices are sit-stand desk solutions like VARIDESK,” said Jason McCann, CEO of VARIDESK. “The majority of research shows that non-sedentary work environments can increase productivity, enhance collaboration, and help combat the list of health issues that stem from long hours of sitting. The active office movement is the standard for how all offices will be set up going forward. So, it is truly exciting to work with the Emmy Award-winning production team from Silicon Valley to help them best represent what it feels like to work at a high tech startup.”

Like all VARIDESK models, the Pro Desk 60 works with a companion app that alerts users when it’s time to sit or stand throughout the workday. Research shows that spending all day in a static positon – sitting or standing – is detrimental to our health. A healthy workday incorporates a mixture of sitting, standing and movement. A non-sedentary work environment is linked to improved productivity, increased cognitive function, weight loss, alleviated back pain, and the reduced risk of chronic diseases.

The Pro Desk 60 ($795) is available on www.varidesk.com.
