We Stand Behind Our Amazing Desks. We sit behind them sometimes too. Our desks components are designed by expert furniture makers in Germany, where the craft of furniture making has been built into the culture for hundreds of years. Our steel is sourced in Switzerland because the Swiss make the highest tolerance steel. We sourced unequaled materials and built these desks by hand in Michigan - a place that defines manufacturing excellence.

BIFMA X5.5 Testing
Contract- Grade Creators
Our desks are designed by expert furniture makers in Germany, where the craft of furniture making has been built into the culture for hundreds of years. We test our products to contract furniture grade standard BIFMA X5.5. That’s the furniture industry’s leading standard for safety, durability, and structural integrity.
These things are built to last.
Everyone Works Differently
Materials Matter
Quality comes from using only the best materials. Even if it means scouring the globe. Our desk legs are forged from Swiss steel, the only steel in the world with the high tolerance required for commercial use. We use German pneumatic components, known for their world class performance. We do what it takes to create the fastest and most reliable standing desks ever made.
We love what we do
High standards make for highly satisfying work. We go after quality in everything we do – from the products that we make, to our ordering process, to shipping and delivery.
We like to think this passion shows.
