Non-Toxic Desks

Click the rating symbols below each desk for more information about its material health.

Non Toxic Sit Stand Desks

Made with solid wood and organic zero-VOC finishes, the Enso desk from T.Y. Fine Furniture is rare. Not only does the desk encourage health through standing and increased activity, but also has a high level of material health. Certainly an investment, but very beautiful and totally non-toxic.

Adjustable Metal Legs for a DIY Sit Stand Desk

You can control the material health of your sit-stand desk if you add your own top to these electronic adjustable metal legs. Use a healthy stain or paint on a piece of solid wood, or something you already own. A more affordable standing desk option.

Plywood Adjustable Standing Desk

This is the best plywood adjustable desk riser from a health perspective. They use FSC certified Baltic birch plywood and a water-based finish. They also acknowledge that adjusting to a sit-stand desk can take time for your muscles to adjust, and have a link to the PDF on how to do it safely in their FAQ section, which I really appreciate. Pairs well with a non-toxic solid desk, listed below.

Glass Sit-Stand Desk

Another more affordable standing desk option, a glass desk means you don’t have to worry about what kind of wood or stain is used. Add a wool desk pad if it’s too cold to the touch. This one from Amazon is highly rated and comes in relatively small sizes (40”) to large sizes, as well.
