Pneumatic Height-Adjustable Desk, Mobile Podium Recognized For Design, Adaptability, Impact On Modern Learning Environments
NEOSHO, Mo., Dec. 2, 2025 – Marco, a family-owned American-made manufacturer of high-quality education furniture, announces that its CUE™ height-adjustable desk and mobile podium system has been selected as a winner in the 2025 interiors + sources Product Innovation Awards.
The annual awards—co-hosted by interiors+sources (i+s) and BUILDINGS magazines—honor the most innovative commercial interior products launched between Dec. 1, 2022, and Dec. 1, 2025. Winners are chosen by a panel of industry experts who evaluate entries based on environmental impact, performance, originality, and cost savings.
CUE™, launched earlier this year, earned recognition for its thoughtful engineering, ergonomic functionality, and contribution to high-performance learning environments. Designed to elevate teacher productivity and mobility, the system features a pneumatic, power-free lift mechanism that adjusts silently from 28” to 42” in height, allowing instructors to shift seamlessly between seated, standing, and mobile teaching styles. Locking casters, GREENGUARD Gold certification, ADA compliance, and optional secure storage further strengthen CUE’s versatility in classrooms, labs, and flexible learning zones.
“Educators need products that adapt as quickly as they do,” said Angie Zlim, Marco’s Director of Sales. “CUE is designed to empower teachers with mobility, durability, and inspiring design at an attractive price point. We’re honored to have this innovative solution recognized by the Product Innovation Awards and celebrated alongside leading products in the commercial interiors industry.”
Built with thermally fused laminates, steel leg frames, and 3mm PVC edge banding, CUE is engineered to withstand the demands of daily classroom use while supporting a modern aesthetic. The collection offers extensive customization—featuring eight tabletop laminate options, nine edge band colors, two leg finishes, and 11 cabinet color choices—to help designers, architects, and school leaders create cohesive and engaging environments.
