Technology Desking wins FIRA Ergonomic Excellence Award (Press Release)

 

London, 12 August 2024 - Technology Desking, a leading control room furniture manufacturer, has received a FIRA Ergonomic Excellence Award for its Continuum control console.

The FIRA award recognises companies that design and manufacture ergonomically outstanding products. To be considered, products must promote comfort and wellbeing for the user. The manufacturer should have high standards of quality and a good environmental policy.

 
 


The Continuum console provides optimal efficiency for operators managing complex systems and processes. It has precise height adjustment and dual desktops for maximum ergonomics, so operators can adjust their workstations exactly to their needs.

Levent Çaglar, Fira's senior ergonomist, said: “Continuum Control Console is a fine example of a control room desk in which form and functions are integrated very well.”

Not only is the entire console aesthetically pleasing to the eye with its sleek design and clear lines, but it is also ergonomically outstanding. Dimensionally, it can accommodate 90% of the intended user population, is extremely easy to use with intuitive controls, and gives great user experience. Ergonomic features and benefits will not only be appreciated by the control room operators but also by the IT people who have to manage the cabling and IT accessories. The cable management system provided by this desk is neat yet simple to manipulate.'


Levent continued: “Its high quality in manufacturing, in structural integrity, strength, durability, and safety has been proven by complying with the stringent requirements of the latest British, European, and international ergonomics and structural standards tested at FIRA.”

Technology Desking's strong commitment to the sustainability and circularity of their desks is evident in the procurement and supply of sustainable timber products (MDF and chipboard are sourced from FSC and PEFC certified sources). Over half the materials used in manufacturing are recycled, and over 60 % of the desk can be recycled as it can easily be dismantled and its components separated.

With over 30 years in business Technology Desking is one of the world's leading desk manufacturers. Its desks are locally made with rigorous standards in quality and design. In addition, they are all bespoke to meet customers' exact specifications.
