AFC INDUSTRIES INTRODUCES SINGLE-TIER BANANA DESK CART

Chicago , Nov. 26, 2006-- AFC Industries (College Point, NY) debuts the single-tier Banana Corner Desk Cart at the 2006 Annual Meeting of the Radiological Society of North America. With a sleek, curved work surface and ergonomic design, the new cart was created to maximize accessible work area and minimize footprint, while providing flexible, streamlined height adjustment. A swing-lift keyboard tray adds even greater flexibility.

“With less stress, strain and repetitive movement than a conventional rectangular or L-shaped unit, the unique desktop shape allows easy access to a much greater work area,” says Amir Rotlevi, president of AFC Industries.

At the touch of a button, the cart work surface adjusts up and down, allowing easy movement from a sitting to a standing work position and accommodating a wide range of individual preferences. It also allows multiple users to comfortably share the same workstation by adjusting it to their own optimal body positioning.

According to Cynthia Roth, AFC Ergonomic consultant and CEO of the Ergonomic Technologies Corporation (ETC) in Syosset, NY., periodically changing from a seated to standing position is important to reduce back pain and discomfort.

Additionally, she adds, “We can predict with certainty a moderate or low risk for injury, if differently sized employees are forced to use a static workstation over time. “

The cart's built in swing-lift tray is perfect to accommodate a keyboard and allows the user the ultimate in flexible positioning.

With a range of colors, finishes and widths available, the cart also can accommodate any room layout and design aesthetic. Today, when room space is often a major concern, the unique curved shape makes the most of available assets.

The banana shape joins a large selection of work surfaces layouts that accommodate varied ergonomic considerations and user preferences. These range from AFC's Deep Ergonomic surface with a significant angled indent to the Soft Ergonomic top with a slight concave curve to the unique ErgoHex with Cutout, which features a hexagonal table top and a rectangular indentation for seating.
