Spinal Joy® believes in sustainability for everyone™. We give you reclaimed valuable space and exceptional innovation in three stunning series that fit any contemporary home or office.

Aluminum vs steel.

Aluminum is the third most common element in the Earth’s crust. Aluminum accounts for 8 percent of the outermost surface. It is the crust’s most abundant metal.
 
Iron is the fourth most common element in the Earth’s crust. Iron accounts for 5 percent of the outermost surface. Iron combined with carbon makes steel.

We use aluminum for our products because this metal is most sustainable.
 
Aluminum is also light, strong and easy to process.
 
Aluminum has great design freedom.

The production of primary aluminum relies heavily on energy.

By contrast, relatively little energy is required to:

transport aluminum (low weight per volume)
 
manufacture products from aluminum (low temperature of the smelting process)
 
recycle aluminum (compared to production from raw materials)

Aluminum can be recycled time and time again without losing its quality. This recycling process consumes merely 5% of the energy initially required to produce primary aluminum.

The world is short and will stay short of recycled aluminum.

Only 30 percent¹ of global aluminum consumption comes from recycling.

The consumption rate of aluminum will only increase and, because of sustainability, we will have to wait longer and longer until aluminum products are discarded and recycled.

¹ 47 percent in case of European aluminum consumption

It makes no difference who uses the recycled aluminum, or which product it contains. If recycled aluminum is not used in one product, it will certainly be used in another.

Aluminum vs fiber-reinforced composite-made.

Fiberglass is widely acknowledged as a material that has major advantages over its more conventional rival aluminum.
 
It is less energy-intensive in development and is used extensively for products which decrease carbon emissions.

How fiberglass is recycled.

Granulated composite can replace fossil fuels and can be used as a substitute for new raw materials.
 
Example: the production of cement is dependent on large quantities of sand. And sand is also the main constituent of glass, and thus also of fiberglass. Fiberglass additionally contains resin which can be used as an energy source in cement production, thereby replacing the use of fossil fuels.
 
Result: recycling 1000 tonnes of specific composite in cement manufacture saves up to 450 tonnes of coal, 200 tonnes of chalk, 200 tonnes of sand and 150 tonnes of aluminum oxide. And the recycling process produces no dust, ash or other residues.

The carbon footprint is first and foremost about weight.

The carbon footprint is determined by the amounts of aluminum, steel, glass and plastic that are used to make our products and that are reused after recycling.

End-of-life recycling approach.

Aluminum will always remain within the chain. This end-of-life recycling approach is the latest and most widely accepted approach to calculating the carbon footprint of an aluminum product.
 
The recycled content approach is based on percentages of post-industrial and post-consumer recycled aluminum material in a specific product.

Sustainability aims at extending the life of a product. We aim for long-lasting functional, technical and aesthetic design.

We aim for the ease of update (maintain and repair) and upgrade (improve).
 
And we aim for the most favorable waste management: reduce, reduce by reuse and recycle.
 
We are committed to close material loops to keep products, modules, parts and materials at their highest utility and value at all times while they keep circulating in and contributing to the economy.

What is a circular economy?

Looking beyond the current take, make and dispose extractive industrial model, the circular economy is restorative and regenerative by design. Relying on system-wide innovation, it aims to redefine products and services to design waste out, while minimizing negative impacts. Underpinned by a transition to renewable energy sources, the circular model builds economic, natural and social capital.

Circular Product Design

We design to last forever so you never stop using our products.
 
We design modular so you effortlessly reuse our modules.
 
And we design parts that are made to be made again.

Made to be made again.

We make parts from materials that have recycle value.
 
We make parts from single materials, so recycling is effectively possible and profitable.
 
We design parts so our products can easily be updated (maintained and repaired) and upgraded (improved).

Let’s introduce our VESA ball joint swivel and tilt coupler.

Our VESA ball joint swivel and tilt coupler is the foundation for our desk monitor arm’s ultimate configurability. We combined our various technologies for dynamic configurability while reducing costs.
 
No one else made a VESA coupler the start of their modular design. Toolless and intuitive.

Need™ series VESA coupler

Our Need™ series VESA coupler allows for the precise adjustment of monitors¹ up to 8 kg (17.6 lb). This innovative lightweight yet durable ball joint coupler is primarily fiber-reinforced composite-made. With 40° swivel and tilt ranges, this VESA coupler provides maximum mobility and eliminates glare.
 
All our couplers feature our patented Smart Connect™, Smart Stop™, Smart Lock™ and Smart Swing™ technologies.

¹ monitor without base

Demand™ series VESA coupler

Our Demand™ series VESA coupler allows for the precise adjustment of monitors¹ up to 14 kg (30.8 lb). This innovative lightweight yet durable ball joint coupler is primarily aluminum-made. With 40° swivel and tilt ranges, this VESA coupler provides maximum mobility and eliminates glare.
 
All our couplers feature our patented Smart Connect™, Smart Stop™, Smart Lock™ and Smart Swing™ technologies.

¹ monitor without base

Elevating it to a whole new high™:

Adapt™ series VESA coupler

Our Adapt™ series VESA coupler allows for the precise adjustment of monitors¹ up to 50 lb (22.7 kg). This aluminum and steel ball joint coupler with unparalleled performance incorporates precision-made parts. With 40° swivel and tilt ranges, this VESA coupler provides maximum mobility and eliminates glare.
 
All our couplers feature our patented Smart Connect™, Smart Stop™, Smart Lock™ and Smart Swing™ technologies.

¹ monitor without base

Let’s do the math. Everything breaks at some point and it’s important to know when.

Our VESA coupler Need™ is designed for 8 kg (17.6 lb) and tested – with safety factor 3 – for 24 kg (52.8 lb) where it shows no permanent deformation and/or breaks and so passes our tests.
 
Our VESA coupler Demand™ is designed for 14 kg (30.8 lb) and tested – with safety factor 5 – for 70 kg (154 lb) where it shows no permanent deformation and/or breaks and so passes our tests.
 
Our VESA coupler Adapt™ is designed for 50 lb (22.7 kg) and tested – with safety factor 5 – for 250 lb (113.5 kg) where it shows no permanent deformation and/or breaks and so passes our tests.

We design modular so you effortlessly reuse our modules.

Modularity, versatility, and adaptivity are prized features to build resilience through diversity. Diverse products are more resilient than products built simply for efficiency.
 
Smart Connect™ is our patented technology to make plug and play modules. Toolless.

Our smart modular design gets you sustainability.

Circular Product Design requires smart material selection, standardized parts, Design for Manufacturing guidelines, including Design for Disassembly and Recycling guidelines.
 

We give you ultimate configurability eliminating redundant products, modules and parts.

We give you all the extra functionalities in a most striking design.

We give you a reinvented product with matching accessories.

 
architecture and design of parts
 

We create subassemblies where possible.

We use a minimum of parts and a minimum of different types of materials.

 
selection and use of interconnection materials
 

We minimize the number and type of connections, but never use too few or poor quality connections.

We only use connections that can easily be removed, are click and play or are single-use, but never permanent connections.

Our smart modular design gets you the lowest price.

When we make your parts, assemble your modules and pack your products we save money.
 
When we ship, store and display we save money.
 
And at set up we save money.
