Be active!
As part of its mission to
convert static desks into
healthy, engaged and active
workspaces, Humanscale has
introduced the QuickStand
height adjustable workstation.
Designed to be attached
to an existing fixed-height
surface, QuickStand features
independently adjustable monitor
and keyboard platforms and
a counterbalance mechanism
that makes it quick and easy to
alternate between sitting and
standing. It is available for single
or dual monitor configurations.
Also new from Humanscale
is the Ballo stool created by Don
Chadwick to promote balanced,
active movement; and the Trea
chair designed by Todd Bracher
for use in collaborative settings.

Carbon neutral cloud services
provider Skyscape Cloud
Services Limited is helping
public sector customers
reduce their carbon footprint
by automatically offsetting
greenhouse gas emissions from
their use of cloud services – at
no extra cost.
Every month, customers will
automatically receive a carbon
offset certificate confirming that
an independent greenhouse gas
assessment has been conducted
and that carbon emissions resulting
from their consumption of cloud
services have been reduced to net
zero through verified, high-quality
carbon credits.
John Godwin, Head of
Compliance & Information
Assurance at Skyscape Cloud
Services, said: “Moving to a
virtualised cloud environment can
help public sector organisations
to use ICT more efficiently,
enabling flexible working and
transforming public services,
whilst also helping to reduce
greenhouse gas emissions.What’s
more, the cloud also delivers
reduced costs, quicker and easier
procurement, higher availability
and increased levels of security.”
