Wood Essence Laminate Tops

You’ve heard the saying “don’t judge a book by its cover”, well that’s exactly true for our laminate work surfaces which are really so much more. First, you’ll do a double-take when you realize they are not real wood they’re even better. That’s because our wood essence laminate desktops are scratchproof, water resistant, and extremely durable, unlike real wood or powder coated tops which can dent and only withstand minor scratches. Plus the powder-coating process, which sprays colored powder onto heated surfaces, creates a smooth painted look making it nearly impossible for the finished product to resemble real wood. You’ll get that real wood look with our wood essence laminate, pay less for it, and it will last you longer.
Seamless Edges with 4EVERedge™ Technology

Say good bye to peeling, sharp edges on your desktop. The 4EVERedge™ process produces virtually invisible joints using state of-the-art hot air technology rather than old fashioned glue. The seamless edge banding which results, looks neater, is resistant to dirt, heat and moisture and even offers a higher UV resistance to fading. Plus you won’t have to worry about replacing your whole desk just because your edges are coming undone because they won’t! But just to give you even more peace of mind, these edges come with a lifetime warranty. You won’t have to worry about getting your shirt caught in the edge of your desk again with 4EVERedge! ™
Durable Aluminum Bases

Thanks to extruded aluminum the NewHeights™ XT’s legs are extraordinarily strong and unbendable. Through the extrusion process, raw aluminum is heated and then pushed through a tool called a “die”. The result is a perfectly shaped piece of aluminum that becomes stronger as it hardens. Because the legs are molded rather than solid they are more rigid which prevents both swaying and tipping that other desks with solid legs may experience. Extruded products don’t bend and they also don’t rust which means they are good for the environment since you will not need to replace them due to these factors.

Rock Solid Stability with Aluminum Cross Support

Also made of extruded aluminum, the XT’s cross support ensures this standing desk is the most stable on the market. By adding the cross support option your desk will have absolutely zero movement, even at heights of 51 inches! This ultimate steadiness is due to a frame underneath the top, connecting both legs, and the cross support spanning across the bottom half of the frame.
European Engineered Motor & Spindle Drives

The double stroke synchronized telescopic spindle gear system is more efficient than chain drives and provides a smoother and quieter lifting motion. These state-of-the-art systems are designed and manufactured by Ketterer Gears in Germany, in an area known for high-precision mechanical systems. Ketterer got its start more than 180 years ago, when Benedikt Ketterer founded a clock making factory in 1832. Since then the company has always been on the forefront of new ideas, from the first electricity connection in the area, to the factory’s own private rail siding for its material supplies. For the past 25 years, Ketterer has been making height adjustment mechanisms for office and workshop systems, so you can rest assured the XT’s spindle gear system is a leader in dependability and durability.
