Try floating instead of sitting
Many people who work in offices suffer from tension, muscular imbalance and back pain. Passive sitting can cause these physical ailments. Working on a kybun mat at a standing desk, for example, is the ergonomic alternative for the workplace. The flexible surface strengthens small muscles, releases tension and positively influences your well-being.
Studies show that moderate exercise increases performance and improves concentration when combined with mental activity. The kybun mat makes you more alert and creative, while ensuring you still have plenty of energy left in the evening.
Integrate a standing table and a kybun mat into your daily work routine and discover the joy of movement. It’s good exercise and good for your body.
A total of 40 bank employees at St. Galler Kantonalbank and some 100 employees at Helsana health insurance tested a standing desk in combination with a kybun mat as part of two pilot projects. Participants in both of the studies confirmed the positive effects of the kybun mat on their physical well-being and posture. The employees really enjoyed working on the kybun mat.

Take a kybun break
A representative study proves that although breaks are a fixed part of the daily routine at work, they are rarely used to increase productivity and motivation.
A total of 75 per cent of employees surveyed stated that their companies did not provide quiet rooms or organise active break activities such as relaxation exercises and movement programmes.
The elastic, springy kybun mat provides active movement and relaxation at the same time. This allows you to recharge your batteries during breaks and return to your desk bursting full of energy.
From sitting down at meetings to creative thinking on your feet
Standing room only! A height-adjustable conference table together with a kybun mat helps makes the office ergonomic. Studies show that moderate exercise helps to noticeably improve posture, concentration and memory.
The small muscles throughout the entire muscle corset are used to maintain balance on the elastic, springy kybun mat.
Meetings are far more dynamic and focused as you have to think on your feet. Participants are more awake and actively take part in the discussion.

Customer testimonials
Klaus Nussbaumer, CEO Pizolbahnen AG
Ich kannte den kybun Schuh vorher nur vom Hören. Seit wir in Koorperation sind habe ich ihn oft und viel an. Weil er wirklich bequem zum Gehen ist. Er trägt auch positiv zu meinem Bewegungsapparat.
Monika Hitz-Bacher, Hotel Scesaplana in Seewis, Schweiz
Ich habe sehr empfindliche Füsse und hatte immer Blasen an den Fersen. Das habe ich jetzt alles nicht. Der Schuh passt sich dem Fuss an und man läuft den ganzen Tag unbeschwert.
Dr. med. Christian Larsen, Leitender Arzt & Fachleiter Forschung und Entwicklung, Zürich, Schweiz
Ich habe viel Freude an meinen neuen kybun Arbeitsschuhen. Und gestern bin ich in 30 cm Neuschnee runter zur Spitalkantine gejoggt - ohne zu rutschen. Cool, du hast wirklich an alles gedacht. Zudem war ich vom Scheitel bis zur Sohle perfekt getarnt... ganz in weiss. Tarnfarbe deshalb, weil ich im tiefen Neuschnee mit der Leichtigkeit des Schneeleoparden locker den schmalen steilen Weg zur Spitalkantine runter getrabt bin. Alles Weiss in Weiss: Der flatternde Arztkittel, der unberührte Schnee, der Schuh mit dem griffig-weichen Bodengefühl. Apropos Rutschfestigkeit: Ich sah mich schon flutsch ausrutschen und flach am Boden liegen bleiben. Gott sei Dank hast du wirklich an alles gedacht, Karl! Übrigens: Das "kyBoot-Raubtierpfoten-Feeling" ist unvergleichlich besser als auf Luft laufen zu müssen.
