The Follow tables collection acknowledged for its uniqueness and technological excellence: Mara’s patented height adjustment system recognised by the European Union’s research and innovation program. The project, after a rigorous selection, was selected among others and received a contribution from the research and innovation program of the European Union Horizon
2020 to ensure its industrialization, which would allow the increase of employment and
income in Europe.
Considered as a means for stimulating the economic growth and creating new jobs, Horizon 2020 enjoys the political support of European leaders and Members of the European Parliament. They agreed that research is an investment for our future and put it at the heart of the European Union’s project for smart and sustainable growth and jobs.
The aim is to ensure that Europe produces world-class science, removing barriers to
innovation and making it easier for both public and private sectors to work together to create innovation.
“We are very satisfied and proud that our latest Follow collection has been appreciated and
recognized also by the European Community – comments Laura Marchina, CEO of Mara –
This precious recognition confirms that the direction taken years ago by my father Luciano
of continuous innovation and research, to ensure competitiveness on the market, is the
winning choice”.
Follow is the world’s first collection of sit-stand tables with a mechanical system
developed to improve the well-being and comfort of people in the workplace, in line with
the European standard EN 527-1:2011.
Tables that combine the possibility to adjust the height of the top millimetrically, according
to the ergonomics of the user, to the opportunity to work standing encouraging movement
and improving well-being and productivity within the workspace.
All of this, in the Mara patent, takes place without the aid of electric motors or gas pumps
and without any effort on the part of the user thanks to an innovative system of weight
balancing.
The result is a versatile and functional collection, 100% recyclable, which thanks to the
different models of which it is composed allows the creation and furnishing of stimulating
environments, free to organize the spaces and change position at any time, in an easy,
immediate and silent way, providing concrete incentives for its use.
