Tyde 2
Alternating between sitting and standing while working on the computer has proven to have health benefits, in contrast to just sitting. However, when planning office environments to suit contemporary work concepts, compromises are often necessary. This is not the case with Tyde 2: the sit-stand table system offers multiple configuration and equipment options, making everything possible from a single desk to a large bench. Single desks, double clusters and conference tables can be transformed into platforms to offer solutions for concentrated tasks, dynamic teamwork and meetings. And Tyde 2 fulfils a key requirement of modern workplaces: configurations can be easily adapted to changing situations and needs to ensure maximum flexibility. This is particularly true with the height-adjustable sit-stand tables on castors. Tyde 2 is characterised by clean lines combined with rounded contours, giving even expansive structures an understated aesthetic. Cable management is neat and orderly thanks to a cable channel and other electrification features. Additional elements and accessories, such as lamp holders, monitor arms or screens, can be freely positioned and attached using the sophisticated Tyde 2 bracket system. The table system comes in a choice of materials, making Tyde 2 a suitable addition to diverse settings. And the use of polyester fleece for the cable tray under the table top helps reduce noise in open-plan environments – particularly in combination with acoustic screens.
