Cubicle Accessories and Essentials for Warmth in Cold Workplaces!

It doesn’t really matter if your office is in the frozen northern tundra or the Sun Belt: indoor air temperatures are notoriously low in many offices, leaving those in the cold finding ways to stay warm in cubicles.

A CBS News report last year cited a UC Berkeley study that found only 40% of U.S. workers were satisfied with office temperatures. Women in particular are more susceptible to thermostats set by male counterparts wearing suits. There’s a disparity between men’s and women’s body temperatures that was not widely considered back in the 60’s, when the formula for optimal office temperature was first developed and mostly unchanged ever since!

Winter or summer, indoor air temps have workers battling the draft with heated chairs, electric blankets, heated floor mats, and the good ol’ space heater. Still, according to Business Insider, “the freezing office” is the number one complaint in workplace polls.

Other ways to keep warm? www.health.com listed its top 11, including Snuggies, Everlane Cashmere Crew Cardigans, and something called the Corkcickle Tumbler that allegedly keeps drinks hot for three hours.

But it’s the personal space heater most frequently called upon to warm up those colder, draftier office spots and cubicles. The Balance listed its “8 Best for 2019” in office applications. Best overall is the Vornado AVH2 with vortex technology apparently powerful enough to heat an entire office. It’s $70.

Best value? The Lasko MyHeat Personal Ceramic Heater, only $20 with “satisfying warmth” and a ceramic heating element. Small and efficient for organized cubicles!

Acrylic Cubicle Sign Holders, Name Plate Holders, and accessories can also play a part in organization and warming up work spaces metaphorically. New border colors add a splash of warmth and style in both Cubicle Name Plate Holders and Sign Holders, accommodating a variety of sizes in promotions, literature displays, and the new 2019 calendar. If your staff is warming up cubicles and getting organized, keep these upgrades and fine details in mind!
