Rather than spending your days sat at a desk working away, more and more people have the capability to get things done on the move, be it sat on the train, eating in a cafe or even waiting in a queue in the supermarket, the ability to work on so many devices from so many places really has made a difference, by and large, a positive one too, however, we must not forget the place where it all begins.

Sure, it might be much more useful being able to touch up those documents as you wait to enter a meeting, but when it comes down to productivity and suitability for any task, a properly furnished, well styled office space is a must for anyone.

Be it a commercial office or a home office, if you’re looking to get through your work in an efficient and comfortable manner, then luxurious office chairs and practical office desks are always going to be a much more suitable place than trying to email a client on a 4inch phone screen whilst being jabbed in the ribs by other people on the crowded bus.

So, the touchscreen handheld devices and wifi hotspots definitely do have their part to play in modern day working life, but remember, when time gets tough, you still have your old friend office furniture to fall back on, and here at Top Office we have a fantastic, extensive range perfect for you.

Even when those working in the office are sat in luxurious comfort whilst they tap away at their keyboards, when a potential client or business partner comes in to visit they are often left with fidgeting to get comfortable on whatever chair, or excuse for a chair, can be found hanging around.

More often then not this can result in you losing the potential custom for either one of two reasons, either the visitor is to uncomfortable to concentrate on what you’re saying because of the poor seating quality, or – perhaps for the more critical visitors – they may feel that you don’t value them high enough by giving them the three legged ‘dunce stool’ whilst everyone else sits in plush leather comfort.

No matter how well you present your company and your work, no matter how many impressive buzz words and fantastic facts about yourselves to woo them, if they’re left with a bad back upon leaving your presence, then that is pretty much all they are going to remember, and they will more than likely go elsewhere!

So, if you’re often in the situation of trying to scramble together last minute seating options – or giving up your own chair – every time a visitor comes in, then you definitely need to take action, and our fantastic range of office chairs in our office furniture collection are perfect to help you on the way to making the perfect first impression, so why not check them out today?

Now, you may think that this is completely harmless – lets face it, we all have the odd bit of rubbish on our desk now and then – however, for those who don’t know you as well, or those who are perhaps more “straight laced” may simply see this as a bad reflection of your skills or productivity, which could look bad on the company, or limit your personal chances of progression.

That is of course something that no one wants, so a top quality office desk is of big priority, with good storage and practical space to keep your computer equipment tidy, and your paperwork organised and we have exactly that in our office furniture range here at Top Office Furniture, so check them out today!

Just like anything else out there which you are going to spend prolonged periods of time in – a car, clothes, a  bed – an office chair is often a very specialised piece of equipment, and when purchasing an office chair either for yourself or a member of staff, you should always take into consideration the requirements of those who will be using the chair above anything else.

Some key points to take into consideration before purchase are:

• Size Of The User – Is the person using this chair tall, or of a larger build? Office chair sizes can vary and you need to make sure that you can comfortably fit in it every day.
• Frequency Of Usage – Is this office chair going to be sat in for 10 minutes per day, or 10 hours? If it’s for prolonged usage, such as a standard 8 hour working day, then a comfortable chair with lumbar support should be brought (office chairs suitable for 8 hour usage are clearly marked in our stock).
• Users Condition – Does the person using the chair have any health problems? back pains or arthritis for example, where they may require a chiropractor approved ergonomic chair.

When you mix this in with the fact that intense clutter can cause low morale, and even depression in staff members, and that an untidy office can be the ultimate ‘turn off’ for any potential client, just highlights exactly why sensible office desks and office storage solutions are a must for any functioning work environment looking to be successful.

Many people put off purchasing new office furniture simply to try and save money, but that is actually counter productive, as new office furniture can actually serve as a way of boosting profits and making more money! With a practical layout which provides plenty of drawer and file space to keep everything in order, staffs morale will be higher, boosting productivity, people will be able to work faster, and potential clients visiting your office will be impressed, all of which can lead to a tidy extra sum of money coming in to your bank account, making office furniture an investment which pays for itself!

So, if you’d like to boost your profits, take a lot of stress out of your working day, or simply restyle the office with some comfortable chairs and sleek looking desks, check out our comprehensive range of office furniture products today!

These statistics do raise a rather startling point  when it comes to suitability and even the safety of peoples office desks and their overall working environment and position. When taken into account that the average (people who lunch at their desks, don’t tend to leave it will be there for much longer) office worker spends almost as long at their office desk than they do in bed on a week night, the issue of furniture cleanliness and quality has to be brought into the equation.

Let’s face it, you wouldn’t put up with your bed being uncomfortable, broken, or filthy would you? Yet thousands of people all over seem to choose to simply put up with the same situation at the second most visited item of furniture, the office desk, which could be having massive detrimental effects on your health and productivity.

Many people sit at office desks which are cluttered, uncomfortable, germ ridden and ultimately unfit for purpose every day, and believe it or not, but only can this effect your mood, lowering morale, but you’re risking mental illness from the discomfort, disease from the germs built up on an unclean desk, and even physical conditions from being forced to sit an awkward angles, or ‘hunch’ your back due to disproportionate heights between your body and the desk.

If any of this is relatable to you, or anyone that you know, its time to speak up for the good of your health – plus, who doesn’t like a nice new stylish work space? – and push on to ensure that your office chairs, office desks, and the office as a whole are a safe, suitable place for anyone to work in.

Here at Top Office Furniture we pride ourselves on having provided many people with the top quality office furniture to turn transform their work environments with our fantastic collection of office furniture, and we highly recommend you check it out, then the same might happen for you!

The office is a great example of how much things have changed over the years, a comparison of an office environment 25 years ago with one in the modern day would highlight huge differences. For example, the technology used within an office has been revolutionised greatly, gone are the days of type writers, or even hand writing, and almost every work area in an office will now be fully equipped with a PC, Laptop, or even a Tablet PC.

Along with PC’s on the desk, the notepad is replaced by a monitor, and the stationary pot replaced by a keyboard and mouse, as everything becomes much more streamlined, efficient, and up to date.

So, as the technology and the way in which you do things changes and becomes more up to date, why is it that you’re still sat at that rickety old office desk which is clearly not built for purpose? They may not be technology as such, but office furniture evolves with the times too, and is as big a part of any office as all the electrical items around!

Its highly important that you ensure your office furniture is fit for the technology which goes on it, otherwise your work space could become highly inefficient, and even possibly hazardous to you or an employee’s health, something which no one wants.

So, if you’re looking around and seeing keyboards crammed in small spaces, paperwork piles blocking the movement of your mouse, and wires tangled all over, its time for a change, and the Top Office Furniture office desks section has the exact solution.

Featuring desks with fantastic features such as sliding keyboard stands, and grommet holes for keeping wires tidy, these desks make the perfect addition to your office furniture collection and go hand in hand with the technology which sits upon it!

These statistics show a very positive 3.6% increase in turnover, as more and more people realise that its time to throw out the old uncomfortable office chairs and impractical office desks, and transform the look and feel of the office environment with brand new office furniture to suit their exact needs.

Long may this continue!
