    The Switch Mouse, from the award winning Humanscale company, debuts at the Bafco stand at The Office show in Dubai in March.
The Switch Mouse, from the award-winning US ergonomic design firm Humanscale, is an innovative mousing solution that boosts comfort and reduces the risk of injury.

This groundbreaking peripheral device integrates two major innovations —a V-shaped base, which puts the wrist and forearm into a natural pronation for left or right-handed users, and size adjustability to provide a perfect fit for any computer user.

Other features include a built-in palm support to prevent contact stress on the wrist, four-way scrolling dish to minimise repetitive motion, and programmable buttons for user-specified functions. All of this adds up to the most customizable and ergonomic mouse ever created.

Bafco's Senior Marketing Executive Gilbert Grino said:
"As exclusive distributors for Humanscale in the region, the launch of the Switch Mouse complements our existing range or ergonomic tools for the modern office."


"Back and joint pain caused by repetitive stress in the office environment takes its toll in absenteeism, poor health and company productivity. The Humanscale range corrects those problems before they start," Grino added.
