People have never spent more time sitting.
We sit at work. We sit in the car and we sit at home. There are numerous studies which have determined the harmful effect long periods of sitting have on the spine, the development of cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and other illnesses. While we are sitting, the pressure in the lower back is 150% whereas it is 100% while we are standing.
In 2015, The National Health Service in England recommended that people who work in an office stand at least two and preferably four hours a day. Height adjustable desks are most often used in order to reduce the amount of time spent sitting. However, researches have shown that people spend about an hour standing when they use standing desks.
Triged believes that people need help in order to stand at their desk longer.
That the chair should take over part of the user’s weight and make standing easier. User of the Triged chair can stand longer because there are three rest positions: in front, on the side, and on the back. The user of the standing desk has only on position to rest arms, in front.
