Wrist rests

Wrist rests are useful and ergonomic office assistants that can be used to prevent or alleviate pain when working at the computer. They provide better working comfort and relieve the strain on the muscles through a natural and correct posture of the hand and thus promote relaxed typing at the desk. The strain at the desk is often underestimated. With the help of a wrist rest, pain can be easily avoided and an overall better working posture can be achieved.

Gentle posture instead of pain and tension

Wrist rests improve posture. Working long hours at the computer with the wrong posture can lead to muscle strain and tension, and even neck and shoulder pain in the long term. When typing on the keyboard or operating the mouse, the forearm rests on the table and the hand often assumes a strained and unnatural posture. A wrist rest can help achieve a neutral position and raise the wrist to a proper angle to maintain an optimal height. This reduces pressure points and prevents bending. A wrist rest can thus prevent pain at work and promote more comfortable working.

The right choice for you

In order to create a much more comfortable working environment for you or your employees and to make the right choice of wrist rest, you should consider a few criteria. When choosing a mouse pad, a suitable surface is crucial, as this can vary depending on the type of mouse. An essential criterion for buying a wrist rest is the height. A pad that is too high can negatively affect the angle, causing tension, but if it is too low, the wrist rest has defeated its purpose. The height of some of our models can be adjusted individually. To find the best wrist rest in the right thickness and height, make sure it's compatible with the keyboard and mouse you're using. Once you have made the right choice, place it about 5-10 cm in front of your keyboard. Test the distance occasionally to find your optimal position.

Wrist rests made of different materials

Wrist rests promote a noticeable positive improvement in your working position. In addition to the ergonomic aspects, it is important to pay attention to the quality. Wrist rests can be made of various durable materials, such as fabric or plastic, and some have a foam or gel filling. Our online shop has a selection so that you can find the right one for your workplace. The surface finish of the wrist rest is also important, because here you can also choose between different models. For example, you can find variants that have an antibacterial material. This additional protection keeps you from odors or stains forming and keeps the wrist rest clean and hygienic. Depending on the person, a soft, sturdy or cooling surface may be more comfortable and the better choice. No matter which model you choose, they all offer safe use thanks to a non-slip bottom. In addition, there are also recyclable wrist rests in our range.
