Harmoni Tote Bag
Also included in the Harmoni bundle is our stylish tote bag. You can easily transport your desk stand and not worry about damaging your desk. Made from RPET (recycled polyethylene terephthalate), our bag has a low carbon footprint and is made from recyclable plastics. By using RPET we are saving raw materials, reducing waste and creating a better environment. Designed to fit the unique dimensions of the Harmoni desk stand, our tote bag will allow you to work flexibly both at home and in the office.
Harmoni Cork Standing Mat
We have also included one of our premium standing mats in the Harmoni bundle. This mat is the perfect accessory for your standing desk. Providing excellent cushion, support and traction, our natural, non-slip mat helps to alleviate pressure on the feet and knee joints, and reduces any fatigue caused by standing for long periods. With its soft surface and moisture-absorbent properties, cork will keep your feet warm, dry and comfortable while you reap all the benefits of standing to work. Importantly, in line with our Harmoni values and vision, our standing mat is also entirely sustainable.
Harmoni Cork Desk Mat
The Harmoni Cork Desk Mat provides a smooth, non-slip surface for your standing desk and protects your table from any potential scratches or spills. The mat has a warm, natural colour and features a discreet Harmoni logo, making it the perfect complement to any desk stand. People and planet safe: cork is a non-toxic, sustainably harvested, and recyclable material.

The Harmoni Standing Desk
Why should I stand to work?
Depression: Studies have found that sitting for more than 7 hours daily increases the risk of depression by almost 50%. The decrease in blood circulation makes it harder for happiness hormones like endorphins, dopamine, and serotonin to reach receptors in the brain
Musculoskeletal disorders and pain: Sitting hunched over a desk can cause shoulder, neck and back problems as it puts pressure on the discs in your spine. Sitting can also lead to problems with your wrists and hands, including repetitive strain injury, as poor posture strains the muscles and tendons in your wrist
Metabolic problems: When sitting, sugars and fats are less well absorbed by your body than when you move, this can lead to serious health problems such as metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes
Shortens life expectancy: A study by Columbia University found that people who sat in 30-minute stretches had a 55% lower death risk compared to those that sat for longer periods at a time. At the same time, people that often sit for more than 90 minutes at a time have a nearly two-fold greater risk of death. Even more alarmingly, the study found that this increase in mortality is independent of physical activity level. This means that even active people who sit for long periods at work are still at a high risk of premature death despite regular exercise
How to use Harmoni?
To assemble:
1. Place the base of the stand into the bottom slot of the structure
2. Place the bottom shelf into the structure at a height that is comfortable for you, keep in mind that your elbows are best at an angle of about 90 degrees. Positioning the shelf at this level will help you to minimise any hand, wrist and arm discomfort that you may have experienced using a regular desk
3. Set the top shelf at a height such that you work with your head inclined at a slight angle, approximately 30 degrees or less. Matching the shelf closely to your eye level in this way will help you to minimise eye strain and prevent back problems
