Desktop Slant Board from Health by Design now available in Canada!

ErgoCanada.com is excited to announce the introduction of a very adjustable and portable writing surface - the Desktop Slant Board by Health by Design.

Picture of the Slant Board by Health by DesignTraditional document holders don't work well as writing surfaces because the ledge that supports the documents gets in the way of the user's forearm during writing. The Desktop Slant Board serves as both a document holder and a writing surface because of the design of the support ledge - it's wider in the middle and tapered toward the outside edges. This freestanding slant board is very rugged with lots of adjustability.

  • Easily adjustable; angle range from 0° to 70°
  • Hand-crafted from strong Baltic Birch plywood
  • Non-glare, low-contrast polyurethane finish
  • Sets up in seconds almost anywhere and folds up flat for travel and compact storage
  • Smooth writing surface is easy on your forearm and wrist
  • Non-skid, non-mar rubber feet protects desktop

For more information on the Desktop Slant Board from Health by Design, see the Writing Solutions category in our → Online Catalog.

U-Slope from Ergonomic Cafe now available in Canada!

ErgoCanada.com is excited to announce the introduction of a new metal writing surface from Ergonomic Cafe, the new U-Slope, part of the UDesking Suite of Solutions.

Picture of the UDeskSlope by Ergonomic CafeThe unique design of the U-Slope by Ergonomic Cafe allows the document holder to transform into an reading and writing slope by simply gliding the U-Slope forward over the keyboard. As the design offers full clearance above the keyboard, no sacrifice on the angle of the document surface is required. Once the keyboard is needed, the U-Slope simply glides back into its document holder position, and thus maximizes your desk space. The all metal design also comes with a magnetic document clip to keep pages in place and an lip attachment to hold books or documents in place while reading.

There are two models available, the regular U-Slope offers a 20" x 11.75" writing surface, and the U-Slope Mini offers a 15" x 11.75" writing surface. Both models offer a range of adjustment on the writing surface from 8° to 45°.

For more information on the U-Slope from Ergonomic Cafe, see the Writing Solutions category in our → Online Catalog.

New Extended Reach EVO LCD Arms from IOP now in stock!

ErgoCanada.com is excited to announce the introduction of a new versatile LCD Arm from Innovative Office Products, the new Extended Reach EVO LCD Arm.

Picture of the Extended Reach LCD Arm by IOPThe Extended Reach LCD Arm from IOP is a gas arm which weightlessly suspends your monitor above the desktop. It elevates the midpoint of the monitor from 12.7" to 17.7" off the desk, while the 10.6" swing arm spans any desktop obstacles - thus maximizing usable desk space. The product includes a quick-install/quick-release mechanism that instantly and securely snaps monitors into position and a cable management system to reduce workplace clutter (cables can be routed internally through swing arm link and descend through mount). Two models are available, one with through-desk mount and one with clamp mount (for surfaces up to 2" thick), both being VESA-monitor compatible (75 mm and 100 mm). Available only in a silver gloss colour.

This design often allows the user to adjust their monitor below the desk surface as there is no 'elbow' which will catch on the desk as is the case with many other articulating arms.

For more information on the Extended Reach EVO LCD Arm from Innovative Office Products, see the LCD-ARMS category in our → Online Catalog.

The reduced neck length allows users to be closer to the desk in seated and standing positions and also allows for full storage with most keyboard trays on a 21.75" track instead of 23". The new design has increased stability and improved accuracy of tilt position, along with a redesigned Lift-N-Lock mechanism for easy adjustments to height of keyboard tray

This new version retains the proven design of the molded-to-fit-the-hand-perfectly contoured shape for which the Contour mouse is internationally known and for which it has received multiple awards for ergonomic integrity.

RollerMouse Bundle Promotion

Picture of RollerMouse PRO  with A Style Keyboard

The RollerMouse Pro is a unique and highly effective ergonomic pointing device that helps prevent strain and tension of upper extremity muscles including shoulders and elbows. It is a remarkable way to control the cursor without the need to grip or reach for a mouse, and requires minimal space.

Keyboards with a conventional rectangular design tend to work best with the RollerMouse product, and we have two options which offer unique features. The "A" Style keyboard (KBS720UB or KBS720B) offers an ultra thin design that's the correct height for integration with the RollerMouse PRO. Another benefit is the unique 'A' shape of the keys which promotes improved ergonomic positioning.

The normal price of the KBS720B is $20.00, and the price of the RollerMouse PRO is $250.00. Until further notice, we will offer the bundle of both products for $260.00, a savings of $10.00 off the regular price!
