Ninavation selection of cardboard laptop stands by categories
What do you mean by great?
In this selection, only products with thoughtful design and good looks are included. They should be entirely made from cardboard/paper, preferably from a single sheet, and feature no plastic coating. All of them should not require an additional keyboard to be used.
Why consider cardboard material?
Brown is the New Green. Many brands like IKEA are looking for ways to produce furniture from cardboard. Experts know that it is a sustainable material for the future. When aluminum and wood become scarce, recycled cardboard will still be abundant.
Why look at the competition?
Ninavation is an open-minded company and acknowledges the accomplishments of other brands. That's why it is willing to compare its products with the best competitors out there. On the other hand, there is no perfect product. Design it strong, and maybe it will also be heavy. Make it light and expect some problems. Indulge in colors/textures and miss the basics. Add luxury and hint at sustainability. Stability often eats space. Therefore, different products can be good enough for different occasions. In our sphere of interest, the following categories can be distinguished:
Ergonomics
Portability
Good Looks
Brand Visibility

By default, all the stands out there try to provide better ergonomics for their users, at minimum, a higher screen and a better typing angle. However, if you need to use a separate keyboard to be comfortable, this is a downside. The Chocolate Paper Laptop Stand by Ninavation is designed to be sufficient. No additional keyboard is required. The angled surface starts from desk level. Another very thoughtful feature is the island stopper. It prevents the laptop from slipping away but at the same time gives space for the comfortable positioning of both hands. It is no wonder that the Chocolate Paper Laptop Stand ticks all the boxes in the ergonomics category.

The Chocolate Paper laptop stand weighs only 84 grams and is one of the lightest. However, it is not a very portable one because it is spacious. Once folded, it should stay this way. The winner in this category, according to Ninavation, is the Korean g.flow laptop stand by grape lab. It is entirely made by folding a single sheet of 100% recycled paper, and the fan-like zig-zag structure makes it foldable. So clever! So easy to take it with you! And weighs only 44 grams. Ok, it's paper, not cardboard, but it's made from paper pulp.

The laptop stand that looks very similar to Chocolate Paper and a bit better is the Origami Laptop Stand by Moonimal. Its futuristic and sleek aesthetic wins first place in this category. We all know that everything comes at a cost, so we feel obliged to mention that this look is accomplished by adhesive.

When we explore laptop stands as branded promotional products, the Chocolate Paper Laptop Stand stands out with its enormous and flat printing surface. It is ideal for different business and trade events. It is superb as a business gift and wellness program gift. Coworking spaces and coffices, this is your guy.
