The ErgoDirect Story
ErgoDirect was conceived in 2002 by Nick Moshiri while working in IT. During this time, Nick discovered that computer users were encountering a variety of health problems due to workspace misconfigurations. Nick was unable to find a company focused on ergonomic solutions and without a map to guide him, Nick began to research ergonomics and discovered an industry which was still in its infancy. He started with simple solutions like placing a few books underneath a monitor to raise it up, or by adding a box as a makeshift footrest to elevate the user’s feet if they were using a chair which was too tall for them. To Nick, it was apparent that the industry needed a company which could provide ergonomic solutions, knowledge and products, so he left IT to launch ErgoDirect.
Over the next few years, Nick came to understand the science behind ergonomics. He discovered factors that affect ergonomics like the average height of computer users versus the average height of desks, how to set up a neutral typing zone, and why a keyboard tray’s negative tilt is better for you than a positive tilt
Teaming up with several ergonomic consultants and manufacturers, Nick helped customers find cost-effective solutions for problems like backaches, sore wrists, shoulder pain and tingling fingers, caused by repetitive motion, misaligned computer workplace setups, and extensive use of poorly designed computer accessories.
Today, ErgoDirect has grown into a worldwide leader in ergonomic workplace solutions that minimize injury, promote productivity, and improve overall well-being. ErgoDirect offers a wide range of ergonomic products such as sit-stand workstations, height adjustable desks, monitor arms, ergonomic keyboards, mice, footrests, and much more.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, much of the global workforce found themselves being forced to work outside of the corporate environment and it was critical that employees find the right home office solutions. To help their customers, ErgoDirect doubled down during the pandemic by developing the industry’s most advanced tools to help customers make optimal ergonomic decisions.
