Humanscale announces the launch of M/Class, its newly refined monitor arm lineup that represents the brand’s most advanced expression of ergonomic performance, minimalist design, and long-term durability. Live in North America on January 26, M/Class builds on Humanscale’s category-defining legacy while introducing meaningful performance upgrades, a clearer product architecture, and significantly expanded capacity driven by a complete internal redesign.
Designed to eliminate the physical strain caused by static screens, M/Class monitor arms allow users to position displays precisely where they need them, encouraging natural posture and fluid movement throughout the workday. This design approach utilizes the monitor arm as a posture-enabling tool, not simply a movable accessory, delivering long-term comfort, health, and productivity benefits. Additionally, by lifting screens off the work surface, M/Class frees valuable desk space while creating a cleaner, more efficient workstation.
True to Humanscale’s function-first philosophy, M/Class relies on intuitive adjustability rather than complex mechanisms. Using the laws of physics instead of mechanical tension controls, the arms move effortlessly with a light touch, allowing adjustments to happen instinctively without disrupting focus or workflow. A comprehensive internal redesign – including thickened casting walls, enhanced pins, refined linkages, and a new mechanical spring system – dramatically increases weight capacity across both arms while preserving Humanscale’s signature ease of movement.
M/Class also integrates technology directly into the arm through Humanscale’s patented M/Connect® Split Dock Technology, transforming the monitor arm into a central connectivity hub. An integrated on-desk hub provides easy access to USB, charging, and audio ports, while an under-desk dock concealed within the clamp hides static cables below the work surface. The result is a clutter-free desktop that improves focus, enhances usability, and reduces visual noise for users, designers, and IT teams alike.
Built for today’s agile and hybrid workplaces, the new M/Class offering accommodates a significantly wider range of monitor sizes and weights, making it ideal for shared workstations and evolving technology needs. Integrated and enhanced cable management options keep wires organized and concealed, reinforcing Humanscale’s commitment to visual clarity and long-term usability.
Like all Humanscale products, M/Class is engineered for longevity. High-quality materials, precision engineering, and a minimalist form ensure consistent performance over time, reducing waste, extending product life, and supporting Humanscale’s broader sustainability mission.
UPDATED M/CLASS FEATURES INCLUDE:
Significantly increased weight capacity across both arms, enabled by a complete internal redesign
