Why Buy Pre-Owned? First and foremost, Saraval warehouses a large number of complete workstations and used trading desks along with monitor arms & file pedestals in an effort to provide immediate delivery of a complete multi-monitor trading desk. There’s no doubt that new trading desks and technical furniture are expensive. Many small and medium sized businesses simply can’t afford to buy new. Buying pre-owned is much more cost effective, saving up to 80%. You can see the used desks for sale that we currently offer. Saraval can customize the look of your project by manufacturing new end panels in the color…
As New York Emergency offices continue to reopen, they are working to ensure the health and safety of their operators. One way they are doing this is to install personal partition screens to help them stay safe at the workplace. Saraval Industries has been working directly with our manufacturing allies to ensure our high-end plexiglass operator barriers get to the front lines. Plexiglass Shields Address COVID-19 Risks With the COVID-19 virus still active in the U.S., many companies have developed equipment and products that are outlined within COVID-19 prevention sections of their reopening plans. Eliminating the hazard altogether is the…
The way trading rooms look has changed a great deal in recent years thanks to the introduction of new communications and computer systems, but the basic open-plan layout still dominates. Most of the desks traders use now have innovative cable management systems. Some even feature water or CO2 cooling technology, but they are usually still arranged in a traditional way. This is because line of sight and instant communication is very important on a trading floor, and placing traders in cubicles or offices would increase the time they spend walking to and from each other’s work stations and reduce the…
If you are opening or expanding a business, you probably have a laundry list of things to do and items to buy.

But should you go all out and buy a new desk or save yourself some money by looking for a pre-owned bargain? Here are just a few of the reasons why buying a used desk could make far more sense. As good as new: Buying a used desk does not mean that your office…

More people are telecommuting lately, but if you start getting aches and pains, that most likely means that the furniture in your home office isn’t ergonomic. Home office standing desks fit the bill nicely when it comes to ergonomics, and many models have come a long way since Max Allan Banfield designed them for health reasons in 1998. It’s not good for your health to sit or stand all day at work, studies show. Too many hours standing in one place can lead to anything from skeletal disorders to circulation issues. The overall health outlook isn’t any rosier for sitting…
In case you haven’t heard or experienced it yourself, being sedentary for too long is extremely hard on the human body. Our bodies aren’t designed for sitting for extended periods, but sitting eight hours a day or more at work is often unavoidable. However, it’s the extra time spent sitting after the first eight hours that is particularly damaging, according to experts. And, that’s even after figuring in exercise, too. In a nutshell, that Netflix binge after work and on the weekends isn’t doing our health any favors. To lessen health risks, the sit-stand desk and stand-up workstation were designed…
The Coronavirus, or COVID-19, has for the foreseeable future changed how we spend our time indoors and outdoors. Along with social distancing practices, people are starting to think about germs and infection like almost no other time in modern history. The behavior modifications that follow are changing protocols, and changing environments. One of the most common environmental modifications for workplaces and customer-facing positions are personal protection screens. These protective shields are designed to block microbes from landing on you and potentially getting you sick. Although some say social interactions are negatively impacted by personal protective screens, they do…
