Key features & specs

How it compares

Unlike the simpler Ascrono Original Under Desk Cable Management Tray, the HumanCentric option includes a detachable raceway for routing cables along the desk bottom. It also offers a higher weight capacity than the Stand Up Desk Store Under Desk Cable Management Tray, making it better for heavy power bricks.

What to know before buying

1. Choose between screw or adhesive mounting based on your desk material—adhesive works well on solid wood but may fail on painted surfaces.
2. Route power and data cables separately inside the tray to reduce electrical interference.
3. Use the raceway for thin cables like HDMI and USB; save the tray for larger adapters.
4. Install the tray near the back edge of your desk to keep cables from dangling visibly.
5. Check that your desk underside has enough clearance—the tray extends 3.5 inches down.

"I manage a team of 12 designers and the HumanCentric tray system made every desk look half as messy. The raceway is a game-changer for hiding those last few visible cords." — Verified buyer

Frequently asked questions

Is HumanCentric Under Desk Cable Management Tray worth the premium price?

Yes, if you need a dual-function tray-and-raceway system that handles both large adapters and individual cables with a sturdy, B Corp-certified build.

Does the adhesive mounting work on laminate desks?

Yes, but HumanCentric recommends cleaning the area with isopropyl alcohol first for maximum grip.

How does the HumanCentric compare to the FlexiSpot tray with riser?

The HumanCentric focuses purely on cable management without a riser, making it more suited for desks that already sit at the correct height.

Can I remove the raceway after installation?

Yes, the raceway snaps on and off easily for cable adjustments without detaching the entire tray.

What if my desk has no underside lip for mounting?

The HumanCentric tray works on flat undersides too—use the adhesive strips or screws directly into the desk bottom.
