Ergonomic advantages – It is no secret that proper ergonomics increases productivity among many other benefits. Anybody who works in front of a computer can attest to neck and eye strains, and improper postures created by spending long hours in front of a computer screen. Introducing a monitor mount in the proper position can aid in reducing these common issues while fostering correct sitting or standing positions.
Increased use of available space – Mounting a screen will free up space from your desk or workstation, thereby eliminating any wasted space due to the placement of a monitor screen.
Increased security – Avoid undesired accidents by securing your monitors, thus preventing any damages which may arise.
Improved accessibility – Custom monitor mounts can be adjustable and easily placed in several ways which allow for a practical and functional display.
