As the emphasis towards ergonomics in the workplace grows, many people are looking for new ways to attain comfort at their desk. While using a nice ergonomic office chair is very important, it can also be a good idea to use a footrest. Not only are many footrests available that adjust to match your body’s specific characteristics, but they also can be made from material designed to provide a high level of comfort to the soles of your feet. This can mean a soft carpet material, or even therapeutic bumps which massage your feet as you work. Most ergonomic footrests at the very least are tilt adjustable, while some even offer height adjustability and can be locked in at the perfect position. There are even heated footrests available that keep your feet toasty warm even on the coldest winter days. Footrests provide support for your legs and feet and also lend themselves to a new concept, active sitting. Active sitting is the idea that you can get a lot more out of yourself while sitting at a desk. By making small movements and repeating motions throughout the day, you can improve balance and posture, stay more alert and focused and possibly even burn calories and lose weight. Some people also swear that by using inflatable exercise balls as alternatives to their office chairs, they have increased core strength and relieved some chronic back pains. Footrests are available from many popular manufacturers including Rubbermaid, Safco, Fellowes, 3M and more. |

The two main complaints among people working in cubicles are lack of privacy and number of distractions they have to deal with. It is said that a person is interrupted 73 times during a typical workday between emails, phone calls, conversations and quick questions that are never very quick. The Quartet cubicle privacy screen is the answer to both of these complaints. The Quartet privacy screen puts a barrier between unwanted distractions and serious work. These screens turn any cubicle into a distraction free and interruption free work area. An ultra-light translucent plastic screen secures to the inside or outside of any cubicle panel creating a distraction free barrier in minutes. The screen slides over the cubicle panel when not in use for easy storage.
Leave messages or post special information for coworkers on the dry erase board with built in marker tray. Also comes with a nameplate to distinguish whose cubicle it is or what department it belongs to. Quartet privacy screens come in Premium and Lightweight models and are designed to work with full size cubicles that are 65” high.
The Quartet premium workstation privacy screen is on wheels and covers most of your cubicle entry, while the lightweight cubicle privacy screen is a little smaller, and attaches directly to your cubicle.
The Quartet privacy screen is the answer if you are frustrated with all the distractions that make it difficult for you to get all your work done. Quartet privacy screens are just one of many different cubicle supplies that you can use to make your workplace more comfortable and give your work area a more personal feel. |

Ok, this isn't your average shredder, and our sites just focus on paper shredders. We're also fans of cool things and humor. Watch it Shred's YouTube channel happens to provide both. Here's a recently added video of a lost opportunity and the demise the riding lawn mower ultimately faced by being put through an industrial shredder.
Although the above scenario is unlikely, you have to admit that it's clever. |

Forget what you think you know about paper shredders. German company, Dahle, has created a shredder that makes all others look weak in comparison. It is called the Disintegrator, and for good reason. Not only does the Disintegrator shred the standard fare, paper, staples, paper clips and credit cards, but it also has a separate compartment to shred tapes, cds, ID badges and even VHS tapes. We joke around the office that you could shred your documents in an office shredder and then shred the shredder in the disintegrator. The powerful, internal 3 Hp motor destroys just about any material it comes across, and shreds down to extremely tiny 1.5mm x 2.5mm cross cut particles. This meets the NSA/CSS 02-02 guidelines, which is the highest level of security for paper shredders. Because of the sheer power of this impressive piece of machinery, you would think the actual unit would be the size of a tank, but in fact although it weighs 875 pounds, it is small enough to fit through a standard sized doorway and has swiveling casters making it surprisingly mobile. Not only that, but it is quiet enough to be used in a standard office environment, emitting only around 75db. Dahle shredders are some of the industry's nicest shredders and are favored by many government agencies and other companies who require an extremely high level of security. |
