Office workstations: which mounts suit best?

With the necessity of integrating productivity along with the need for a healthier and safer work environment, Atdec is perfectly positioned to take on the challenge of making the commercial office space more ergonomic, efficient and well organised. Companies who have taken this into account have benefited from a more motivated and productive workforce. Financial and health benefits have been realised by reducing repetitive strain injuries, neck and eye strain, right through to improving bad back posture when working.



Atdec’s Spacedec Acrobat and Visidec Focus series of mounts comply with Occupational Health and Safety standards. They are specifically designed to improve ergonomics and productivity in key office areas such as computer workstations, meeting rooms, presentation boardrooms and large conference venues. The mounting solutions accommodate all display types and sizes including desktop LCD monitors, wall or ceiling mounted plasma or LCD screens and ceiling mounted projectors. Atdec’s range includes integrated or internal cable management features allowing for a tidy arrangement in display cabling and connectivity.

Improving ergonomics and productivity in workstation

The Spacedec Acrobat and Visidec Focus display mounts allow the office worker to adjust the height, angle, and distance from the LCD monitor display. The recommended ergonomic position on desktops is working with a straight back, with eyes level to the top of the monitor, approximately one arm’s length away. The Spacedec Acrobat and Visidec Focus ranges perfectly position the LCD monitor to the ideal height and distance and the preferred posture of the user. Users can also pan and tilt the monitor to their required positions. Ultimately, the mounts allow the person to find his or her optimum position in a seated or even a standing position while operating a computer or workstation.

Goals of improving workplace ergonomics and productivity for architects and interior designers should look towards incorporating the Visidec Freestanding range. The ability to mount two or more screens increases productivity, allowing the user to view multiple applications at once by spreading across two or more screens. The Freestanding range allows for horizontal dual monitors, vertical dual monitors and mounting four monitors, and being “freestanding” allows the user to position the monitors anywhere on the desk.



Ideal for professions in finance, surveillance, creative, journalism and others that require the use of multiple monitors, the Visidec Freestanding range is the most elegant solution to mount multiple screens together.

The office worker who is increasingly reliant on their notebooks should turn towards the Visidec Notebook Traveller range. This mounting solution elevates and positions the notebook to the desired height as if it was an LCD monitor. It helps to reduce strain on the eyes, neck, and back for notebook users who previously viewed their notebook screen at an improper lower angle.

Improving ergonomics and productivity in boardroom and meeting rooms

Boardrooms and meeting rooms are a treasured place in commercial offices. They are the hub of formal and informal communications among staff and visiting clientele. Adapting Visidec’s Focus range, large boardroom offices can mount individual LCD monitors within and around the boardroom table where a complete work desk is not viable. Visidec’s Focus range can be strategically positioned on or around the boardroom table. This allows the executive access to networked computers that were previously impossible in the boardroom. The Focus range can be bolt through mounted, wall mounted or desk clamped in the boardroom. Corporate offices can take advantage of the cable management features which can be integrated through the mount and the boardroom table wiring.



For larger display settings, not only does Atdec’s Telehook mounting solution give you the opportunity to “show off the big screen”, it also increases the impact of those vital presentations before that notable close of the deal. Properly mounting and positioning that 50” TV gives the boardroom or meeting room a focal point in viewing presentations without taking up more furniture space.

The Telehook range can be wall or ceiling mounted. The cable management feature in ceiling mounted displays allows the installer to neatly insert the wiring through a wide diameter opening in the center of the pole. For wall mounted displays, Atdec boasts the cable manager and shelf system, providing a simple and elegant design solution. The Telehook Projector Range further extends the Atdec range for projection solutions. The projector mounts are suited to 90% of projectors and can rotate to 360 degrees.

The Sustainable Office, Green Star Program and Atdec

Building and designing the ergonomic, modern and eco-friendly office is big business and getting the design right the first time is important. As part of Atdec’s commitment to contributing to today’s modern office design, the company is a proud member of the Green Building Council of Australia and more specifically its Green Star Program.

Green Star is a comprehensive, national, voluntary environmental rating scheme that evaluates the environmental design and achievements of buildings – as a member Atdec provides customers with a valuable incentive by allowing them to earn Green Star points.

"One point is awarded where all workstation monitors provided as part of the tenancy fitout are flat-screen and are mounted on an adjustable arm that enables the monitor to be pivoted and adjusted horizontally and vertically. Adjustable arms must have at least two articulations and be able to provide the monitor with a vertical and horizontal displacement of at least 50cm. The adjustable arm must allow the monitor to be pivoted vertically and horizontally, and should provide the user with the capacity to orient the monitor perpendicular to the two nearest facades” (Green Star Program Technical Manual, Office Interiors 1.1)

Property developers, architects, interior designers and project managers have recommended Atdec’s display mount solutions in the construction of new and modern offices. Atdec products help the building industry reach their goals in designing an office that maximises use of space, light, display adjustments and proper ergonomics.

By using Atdec’s Spacedec and Visidec products customers are contributing to achieve the Green Star Progam’s goal in promoting the building and designing of sustainable offices using environmental and human friendly materials and adopting the latest technologies.
