Oh midcentury modern, why do you have to look so cool and yet be so uncomfortable? The 1950s-era chic has been back for the last five years or so, and it’s starting to infiltrate offices. Our clients are starting to ask for lean, rectangular desks for reasons of both form and function. They believe the horizontal lines look more contemporary, and they think they can fit more desks in a room. What they’re not thinking about is comfort.

Xybix specializes in fitting the desk to the person and the tasks at hand, bringing an ergonomic focus that guarantees both efficiency and comfort. You can see this in action as Kenny walks you through the solutions we designed for key players at nearby Greiner Electric. Our designer worked with each employee on a sit-to-stand desk configuration tailored to his or her personal preferences and functional needs. Xybix was happy to provide everything from standard side returns, tables and cabinets to a fully custom desk.

A real Xybix client’s low-tech solution to achieving proper focal depth before Rollervision™
Years ago, Xybix owners Kenny and Barry Carson spotted a hot trend. More monitors. Bigger monitors. Curved monitors. But all that screen real estate does nothing if you can’t position the monitors within your line of sight.

Why purchase carpet from your technical furniture manufacturer? First, the high-quality flooring Xybix offers contributes to the overall success of your project. The carpeting both absorbs sound and prevents static that can damage your electronics. Second, the fewer vendors involved in a live cutover the better.

When I think of warranties, I think of health insurance. I’m not going to read the coverage because I don’t know what half of it means and I think (hope) nothing will happen. As a result, I don’t really know what’s covered until something happens. (Hello, Achilles tendon.) And then I have no idea what it will cost me. (Please don’t tear, Achilles. I hear you’re worth $6K. No idea on the out-of-pocket.)

“You get what you pay for” usually means that if something is inexpensive, it’s poor quality. We can debate this idiom all day long. Is Whole Foods really better than Trader Joe’s? Is Apple better than Samsung?
But I think we can all agree on one thing: When you pay for something, you should actually get something. And that is not the case when you are paying markups on technical furniture solutions.
This is why Xybix sells directly to our customers. As the manufacturer, we know our products best and we guarantee that you’ll get the highest quality products and services available.
