Ace: A smarter way to sit, stand and work

In today’s offices, hybrid working has reshaped how we use space. A single workspace may need to support multiple employees, switching between focus, collaboration, and virtual connection throughout the day. As flexibility becomes non-negotiable, workplace design is increasingly guided by human-centric principles, creating environments that prioritise wellbeing, productivity, and inclusivity.

For years, sit-to-stand systems have grown in popularity, yet many have carried compromises: slow or noisy mechanics, unstable frames, or bulky forms that detract from the space around them. Designed by the team at Krost, Ace overcomes these challenges. It introduces a revolution in form with its incredibly slim 57mm tubular leg profile, the thinnest column design in the world and features a premium dual-motor mechanism that ensures strength, stability, and whisper-quiet movement.

This refined aesthetic is complemented by a 25mm rounded worktop. An integrated cable management system ensures work surfaces remain clean and clutter-free. Durable steel frames in black or white allow Ace to suit a wide range of architectural palettes.

Ace also responds to the commercial trends shaping the future of work. Organisations are placing greater emphasis on health and wellbeing, with ergonomic solutions that support movement and comfort now central to workplace culture. Hybrid working has redefined the desk as a shared resource, and Ace makes it easy for each user to tailor their setup instantly. Offices are also increasingly viewed as brand statements, and Ace contributes to this with a look that supports rather than interrupts the character of a space. Finally, sustainability remains front of mind, and Ace’s local design, engineering, and manufacturing minimise environmental impact while ensuring uncompromising quality.

Every detail of Ace has been developed to support people at work. Precision-tested components, durable powder-coated finishes, and locally manufactured craftsmanship guarantee long-term performance with minimal environmental cost. In keeping with Krost’s philosophy of human-centric design, Ace is not only about creating spaces, but about empowering individuals, improving wellbeing, and enabling workplaces to perform as well as they look.

Ace is more than a height-adjustable system. It is a new standard for the modern office, where adaptability, ergonomics, and design come together to create better ways of working.
