Want to maximize your spring cleaning? Glass table and desk tops are easier to clean and make for a healthier home environment.

April is prime spring cleaning and redecorating time. If you’re looking for ways to make your annual sprucing up easier and faster, consider our glass table tops and glass desk tops.

Unlike porous desk pads and covers that can absorb dirt and bacteria, custom glass table tops and desk tops by Cleary Innovative Home & Office Products are a cinch to clean and disinfect. A wipe down with a soft cloth and a simple glass cleaner will do the trick. Plus, the nonporous surface makes for a healthier household. Bacteria, like that harbored in the pores of wooden furniture, are a leading cause of illness. Because it’s hard for cleansers to reach, bacteria can fester on your table and desk tops for weeks or even months. But bacteria on a glass table top or desk top will last only a few hours, or until the first good cleaning, whichever comes first.

Our specially manufactured glass table and desk tops also are thick and durable, which makes them scratch-, break- and heat-resistant. They add a natural shine and are infinitely versatile. Lay them over colorful table cloths, art pieces, magazine pages or other decorative elements anytime you want to change the look of a room. Your glass top also can be customized with edgework detail, glass tint or thickness. To design yours, call Clearly Innovative Home & Office Products at 949-812-2495 and talk with a specialist today.

Don't worry - Our glass chair mats are far stronger than this glass and this girl.

It’s a question we get all the time. In fact, it’s probably the top point of skepticism we hear about our top-selling product, glass chair mats. After all, glass is fragile, right?

While it isn’t quite the thickness or strength of the glass that separates you from the shark tank at Sea World, it’s also not the same as the glass in your home’s windows or your car’s windshield. Our glass chair mats are made with 1/4-inch thick tempered glass prepared to unique standards designed for strength and durability. This proprietary manufacturing system (patent pending) results in tempered glass that is up to five times stronger than regular glass and capable of withstanding 24,000 pounds per square inch.

The unexpected strength of our glass chair mats means that they’re break- and scratch-resistant, thought they can get scratched if gritty substances like sand are tracked onto the mat and left under the your chair rollers, so you’ll want to sweep or wipe them regularly.

Says one happy customer: ” At first I was concerned that the glass chair mat might be terribly fragile and easily broken, but it the process of assembling the metal brackets for a new lateral file I TWICE accidently dropped one of the metal cross-pieces whose sharp edge struck the mat directly from a height of approximately three feet, and no discernable damage whatsoever! It’s an incredible product, and I thoroughly enjoy using it!”

Because these mats are so hard, they’re easy on your back, shoulders, neck and joints. When paired with our specially designed chair rollers, they make for an exceptionally smooth and nearly effortless roll. No more pressure on your knees and back muscles to rock or dig your way out of the deep grooves that form in conventional vinyl chair mats. They’re available in multiple sizes and can be custom-configured to your particular space and needs. Our glass mats also come with a lifetime limited warranty against failure when used correctly as a chair mat.

Clearly Innovative Home & Office Products offers New Year's resolutions to boost your health and productivity.

The New Year is upon us. How will you improve your life in 2012? If you envision a happier home and office life, plus a healthier body, Clearly Innovative Home & Office Products has a few suggestions for your New Year’s resolutions.

• Spruce up your environment: One great way to permanently lift your mood is to clear out and clean up your environment. Commit to getting your home and office organized and free of clutter, then, spruce it up with some energy-boosting colors, soothing scents and perhaps a few furniture upgrades. Our glass chair mats and glass desk and table tops will add a touch of shine to your work and living areas. They’re scratch resistant and can be customized to perfectly fit your desk, table and counter tops or your desk’s floor area.

• Do your body good: Our glass chair mats do much more than pretty up your space. They also offer health benefits you won’t get with flimsy vinyl chair mats. Glass mats offer greater support for your back, shoulders, hips, legs and knees. The improved support reduces the strain on muscles, joints and bones that can lead to poor posture and pain. Plus, gliding your chair across a glass chairmat takes much less effort than the pushing, pulling and straining necessary to move a chair on a vinyl mat that has formed deep groves.

• Get wise about finances: Business professionals who use our glass chair mats in their offices report higher productivity and healthier, happier employees – all important factors in a company’s success. Plus, while they’re more expensive than vinyl chair mats initially, glass mats are ultra-durable, outlasting other materials by decades.

If you’re the type who loves to entertain guests at home or an entrepreneur with an idea for a great new corner deli, you’ll want to consider glass dining table tops. They add a bit of shine to your décor and they serve to protect your tables and table cloths.

Among the benefits of a beautiful, durable glass table top:

• They’re easy to clean and maintain. Just wipe them down with a high-quality glass cleaner.

• They’re scratch, break and heat resistant. One primary misconception about glass table tops is that they scratch easily, prone to chipping or breaking, and unable to withstand hot pots or dishes. Not so with the tick, durable glass we use in manufacturing our table and desk tops.

• They cleaner and healthier. Because glass is not porous, it doesn’t harbor bacteria like many wood, vinyl and other porous materials.

• They’re versatile. Change up your dining area’s look by placing new tablecloths on your table and covering them with a glass table top. Many decorators also place glass table tops over decorative elements like lace doilies, pages from books or magazines, and artistic sketches and paintings. The designs show through the glass, and the glass protects the table cloths and decorative elements from spills and burns.

• They’re great indoors or outdoors. A glass top on tables or countertops in your outdoor kitchen or dining area beautifully withstand weather conditions and lend an upscale look for your starlit summer parties.

• They’re long-lasting. A 1.5-inch glass tabletop will literally last you a lifetime.

Clearly Innovative Home and Office Products offers glass tabletops with a range of customizations, including custom sizes and shapes, several tinting or decorative etching options, and multiple edge styles. Browse our website to find the perfect glass top for your tables, desks or countertops and call us at 949-812-2495 to order yours in time for the Christmas, Hanukkah and New Year’s holiday party season.

Light, natural colors, live plants and a clutter-free desk, along with comfort features like glass chair mats, can boost your business success.

Your offices’ look and setup can have a profound impact on your employees’ morale – which, in turn, has a big impact on your company’s profitability. Design factors as simple as using glass chair mats over vinyl chair mats can help keep your employees happy and your bottom line strong. Clearly Innovative Home & Office Products offers a few design tips for maximizing your success:

• Comfort is Key: Comfortable employees are productive employees. And comfort takes multiple forms in an office setting. An ergonomic keyboard and mouse will cut fatigue in employees’ hands and help avoid conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome. An ergonomic chair paired with a glass chair mat will ease strain on the back, neck, shoulders and knees. Good lighting will reduces eye strain and resulting headaches. A visual breath of fresh air helps keep an office from feeling cage-like. A window is ideal, but if your office doesn’t’ have any, you can mimic the outdoors effect with paintings of outdoor scenes and lots of live plants (which, by the way, help improve the air quality in an office – a health benefit unto itself).

• The Color of Success: Subdued, cool colors promote feelings of tranquility and focus. Light blues, greens, yellows and whites help employees focus. In fact, that’s why legal pads are light yellow in color. Dark, overly bright and red-toned colors are distracting.

• Keep it Close: Items you use regularly should be reachable without having to leave your desk, ideally. These include printers, fax machines, scanners, file cabinets and smaller items like staplers, pens, note pads, calendars, etc. Items that are shared between multiple employees should be kept close by and in an area that’s as aesthetically pleasing as the rest of your office.

• Clear the Clutter: They say “a cluttered disk is a sign of genius.” They’re wrong. Studies show that clutter is mentally distracting and can hamper productivity. Every minute you spend searching for that report beneath stacks of magazines, Post-It notes and other assorted stuff is a minute wasted. As they say, “time is money.” They’re right. Boxes and folders that complement your office décor can help contain your clutter and make for a more efficient, effective work environment.

Give your office an aesthetic and efficiency makeover. Start by contacting Clearly Innovative Home & Office Products for glass chair mats, desk and table tops, custom desk pads and more. Call 949-812-2495 or use our online email form.

High quality office chair caster rollers make a big difference.

When you purchase a glass chair mat, you can bet your office experience just got better. The smooth rolling surface will be easier on your knees and back. And you’ll save hundreds, even thousands of dollars over the lifetime of your glass chairmat – money you would have thrown away on dozens of plastic or vinyl mats that wear out within six months to a year.

So, why mar that great new experience with cheap office chair casters that minimize your movement and wear out nearly as quickly as those vinyl mats? When buying your new glass chair mat, we recommend adding a set of our high-quality office chair casters. They’re specifically designed and manufactured to be used on hard surfaces including hardwood floors and glass. The caster rollers have a slightly softer surface, which makes for a smoother, quieter roll. (By contrast, many of today’s office chairs come with twin wheel nylon casters which slide, rather than roll.) And the heavy duty casing means they’ll last far longer than conventional models.

Not all office chair caster rollers are made equal. To find out more about the benefits of higher quality caster rollers, call Clearly Innovative Home & Office Products at 949-812-2495.

A high-quality glass chairmat can reduce the strain on your back, neck knees, keeping you pain-free and productive.

If you sit at desk each day and have back or knee pain, a glass chair mat might be just what the doctor ordered, according to one Chair Mats of Glass client who also happens to be a physical therapist and certified athletic trainer.

“Your glass mats provide an excellent, durable surface without the risk of developing grooves or dents over time that would actually hinder chair movement and increase the strain on the knees, hips, and back,” says Lissa Trevino, president of Ocean Physical Therapy, Inc. in California.

According to many in the physical therapy, chiropractic and other related fields, a sturdy mat made of glass provides much more support for your body than does flexible vinyl or plastic mats. This reduces the strain on your muscles, joints and bones that can lead to poor posture and pain. Business professions who purchase them for their staff report higher productivity and healthier, happier employees — all factors in a better bottom line for a company.

“I had knee surgery last year and I had to stand up and lift my chair out of the caster grooves,” says Valerie P., another client who works as a court recorder. “It was just too hard on my knee to try to push out. My glass chairmat is a Godsend!”

“Because it is also solid and heavy, it supports my study chair at a constant level, and that allows my chair to lessen my back aches,” adds retired minister Bob Shuler.

And says Stacia Swartz, a corporate recruiting, staffing and placement specialist, “Far less fatigue factor with our new glass chairmat. It takes zero effort to roll.”

Glass Chair Mats Let the Natural Beauty Show.

There nothing uglier in your home or office than a yellowed vinyl or plastic chair mat. What was suppose to allow the natural beauty of your carpet or flooring to shine through simply becomes a dingy eye sore. Plus, traditional clear plastic mats always end up in a local landfill after they wheel cup, warp or split.

Just look at some of the major advantages of buying a glass chair mat when outfitting your office at home or at work:

1. Durability That Lasts a Lifetime
2. Eco-Friendly Made from Sustainable Glass
3. Good Return on Your Furniture Investment
4. Protects All Types of Carpets & Flooring
5. Affordably Priced with $39 Flat Shipping

When you buy from us, you are acting in an environmentally responsible manner. Not only can our glass mats be recycled, Clearly Innovative chair mats are originally manufactured using 25% to 30% recycled glass.

Finally, you can buy a clear office chair mat that doesn’t have to be replaced every year and is nearly invisible. That will allow the natural look of your tile, hardwood or carpeted floor to show through without the yellow tint of conventional clear mats. Clearly Innovative Home & Products chair mats come in five sizes but custom sizes are available for glass mats, table tops and desk tops. In addition, glass mats will add a touch of class to any home or office decor.

Think “Green” and stop wasting your time and money.

Clients say our glass chair mats are the coolest things they've bought all year.

Here at Clearly Innovative Home & Office Products, we get a lot of testimonials from customers who love our glass chair mats. But this one from Brian Mason, a computer professional is one of our favorites. Says Bryan:

“The glass chair mat is the coolest gift I’ve bought myself this year.  My friend says it’s the coolest thing he’s gotten since his Droid X.  A phone capable of doing 1000 things compared to a mat that sits on the floor – the two shouldn’t even be compared, but the mat is that nice.”

We think our glass chair mats are pretty cool too. After all, they’re super durable and come with a lifetime warranty. They look far better than those plastic and vinyl mats that curl up, dry out, crack and chip your furniture. And they allow your chair to roll smoothly, reducing stress on your back, hips and knees.
