Innovative and HAT Contract Introduce New Height Adjustable Workspace Benching System

Innovative, a maker of monitor, tablet and sit-stand mounting solutions, is introducing a new height adjustable workspace benching system. An ideal solution for maximizing floor space while contributing to employee health, the dual benching system comes with multiple options and features to support virtually any commercial end-use area, including office, healthcare or education settings. Designed by HAT Contract, a leading manufacturer and distributor of office products acquired by Innovative earlier this year, the new product easily pairs with any of Innovative's advanced monitor arms.

The unit comes in the three widths – 48”, 60” and 72” – and includes two bases with expandable frames. The bases are powered by dual motors housed within each leg and are synchronized to ensure the table adjusts smoothly and accurately every time. A 4-position programmable LED handset allows height adjustment to range from 27.25 inches for seating and up to 46.75 inches for use in a standing position. The unit's dual synch motors offer a 300 lb. load capacity.

The units can be easily assembled with other units and configured as the physical space or interior design scheme requires. Configurations include side-by-side, semi-private or an enclosed-type format. Additionally, the unit's innovative folding frame design allows for quick assembly or re-assembly when new space configurations are desired. The HAT benching system is available in either silver or white.

A fully integrated data and power beam is included to seamlessly route and hide power cords and other cables. Options for greater functionality and design include a number of different divider choices. Customers can select from fabric fold, acrylic, white board and HAT's new PET EchoScape made from recycled water bottles. A cable management tray is also available.

All HAT bases are made with a steel frame construction for long lasting durability and carry a 7-year warranty on electrical and mechanical components, and a lifetime warranty on the frame. HAT Contract bases are GREENGUARD Gold Certified.

The benching unit can now be easily paired with any of Innovative's monitor arm mount products, including the company's award-winning EvoÆ Articulating Monitor Arm, its Staxx 7000 Series or its forthcoming Ella Next Generation Monitor Arm.

Both HAT's workspace bench and Innovative's monitor arm products typically ship in 2-3 days, an industry-leading standard set by HAT.

“Bringing together HAT's expertise in height adjustable workspace products and Innovative's expertise in monitor mounting products means our customers can now work with us as an all-in-one workplace solutions provider,” said Innovative's Vice President of Sales Jeff Wolber. “Along with our quick-ship capability, these products continue our mission of providing ergonomics, flexibility, and space savings for the professional user.”

Innovative's business approach is supported by research showing that standing during a workday can bring health advantages. In fact, according to a study conducted at the Mayo Clinic, the average person can burn an additional 54 calories a day by standing for six hours in lieu of sitting.
