Comfortable, refined and copacetic, leather chairs are a staple of any good office. However, like all good things, leather wears down with time. If you don’t clean your leather chairs well, they will deteriorate quickly.

Here is Nicole Groshek from National Business Furniture with some tips on cleaning leather chairs to make them last long.

How to Clean Leather Chairs

Leather office chairs allow employees to work in total comfort and sophistication. Although this type of seating is a true luxury, it isn’t the easiest to maintain. If you want your leather to stay looking and feeling as good as new for years to come, regular cleaning is a must. Here are three ways to clean your leather upholstery, plus some helpful tips.

Leather cleaner. Many cleansers are designed specifically for leather and come in spray-on form. Be sure to do a spot test on a small, hidden area of your chair first to ensure that the leather cleaner won’t damage or discolor the upholstery. These leather cleaners are usually a safe bet as they’re specifically formulated to keep leather furniture looking its best.

Vinegar and linseed oil. This home remedy involves a mixture of one part vinegar and two parts linseed oil. Apply the mixture to your leather upholstery and leave it on for a few hours. We recommend doing this before heading off to a long meeting or leaving the office for the day. After the mixture dries, buff the chair with a clean rag to create an attractive shine. See full post

Taking care of your veneer furniture is crucial for its survival. Without proper care, veneers might deteriorate easily and not last a long time.

This article by Nicole Groshek from National Business Furniture aims to provide just the right information on protecting your wood veneer desks and tables.

How to Protect Wood Veneer Desks & Tables

If you plan on using your veneer desk or table for years, you’ll want to know how to keep that beautiful finish looking its best even after daily use. Make a habit out of performing these regular maintenance tasks, and you’ll thank yourself for it in the long run.

Use desk pads and coasters. Writing on a piece of paper directly over your veneer conference table or desk can irreparably damage the beautiful surface. Instead, try using a desk pad to write over, and provide employees with desk pads around your conference table. Be careful not to use desk pads with a plastic backing, as these can cause scratches. Leather and fabric desk pads, however, are soft enough to protect your veneer. In addition to writing over a protective surface, you should also be sure to keep coasters within reach to prevent water and heat damage caused by beverages. See full post

So you’ve made the move to standing desks. You juggle your work time between sitting and standing positions. But have you paid attention to your posture? Are you standing in the correct position? Is the desk too low or too high? Can you access your workstation while maintaining a correct posture?

These are some of the questions addressed in this article by Rachel Bindl from National Business Furniture.

Standing Height Ergonomics

So you’ve added a standing desk to help you ward off many of the negative health consequences of sitting all day long at your desk. You’re moving and incorporating a balance between sitting and standing. But have you forgotten all about ergonomics? It can be easy to do. While a balance of sitting and standing is the most important thing, you’ll also want to consider the height of your workstation, the position of your monitors and keyboard and your ergonomic chair adjustments to make sure that your body is fully supported no matter whether you’re taking a stand or sitting for a bit.

Set Your Workstation at the Proper Height

You certainly won’t want a workstation that causes you to have to reach, whether too high or too low. If you are reaching or straining to look up or down, it can cause a lot of strain on your shoulders, neck and even your back. Having an adjustable height desk ensures that you can move the workstation up or down to best accommodate your individual height. You will want to position your workstation (including your keyboard) in such a way that your arms are parallel to the ground while typing (no stress on elbows or shoulders) and that you’re not looking up or down at monitors, but instead straight ahead, keeping your shoulders and neck relaxed. It’s recommended that your monitor is placed about an arm’s length from your face. Read more..

Timeless Office Styles

The word “timeless” is certainly a lofty adjective; yet there are things that we always seem to return to, whether it’s in the world of fashion or the world of office furniture. Here are three office styles that we consider to be truly timeless.

The Elegantly Traditional

Traditional furniture can sometimes come off a bit stuffy, but not when it’s done right. A truly classic and traditional look will be warm, welcoming and, most of all, so elegant that you’ll feel the impactful luxury and gorgeous details of it all as soon as you walk through the door. Traditional lines include rounded silhouettes and carefully crafted engravings. Even when you think you have seen it all, there’s always more detail to discover and delight in with a timeless traditional office. Read more..
