Posturite Penguin Ambidextrous Vertical Mouse
PENGUIN AMBIDEXTROUS VERTICAL MOUSE
HUMANSCALE X RAZER™ PRO CLICK MOUSE
The Penguin sets new standards of protection against a range of upper limb conditions such as repetitive strain injury (RSI) and carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) by enabling right and left hands to share the workload and avoiding exaggerated movements of the wrist joint that can increase pressure on the soft tissues in the carpal tunnel.
Regular switching of hands throughout the day helps prevent static muscle strain (SMS) in the arm and shoulder - a major source of discomfort in mouse work.

BACTERIA & MOULD PREVENTION
Coated with BioCote® antimicrobial material, with up to 99.99% bacteria reduction.
UNIQUE DESIGN
The Penguin marks a major breakthrough in the battle to beat health problems created when computer users spend too much time handling a conventional mouse. The ambidextrous design and central ‘bow-tie’ switch allows for easy transition between right and left-handed use.
EASY-GLIDE SYMMETRICAL BASE
Allows the user to rest either hand comfortably alongside the vertical structure, encouraging the use of the bigger muscles in the fore and upper arm to manoeuvre the mouse. Fine cursor control is still achievable with small hand and/or finger movements.
WINNER IN ERGONOMIC TRIALS
The Penguin was put to the test during trials carried out by VSI Risk Management and Ergonomics Inc., and the University of Brighton in the UK.
- 82% said it had superior design and usability
- 90% said it was the most comfortable mouse to use
- 77% of users chose to keep the mouse after the study
PREVENTION OF UPPER LIMB PROBLEMS
The vertical design encourages a more ergonomic position whilst mousing to avoid wrist strain.
It sets new standards of protection against a range of upper limb conditions such as repetitive strain injury (RSI) and carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) by enabling right and left hands to share the workload and avoiding exaggerated movements of the wrist joint that can increase pressure on the soft tissues in the carpal tunnel.
