The Penguin Mouse v2
The Penguin sets a new benchmark for protecting against upper limb conditions like repetitive strain injury (RSI) and carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). It allows both the right and left hands to share the workload, reducing strain and minimising exaggerated wrist movements that can increase pressure on the soft tissues in the carpal tunnel. Regularly switching hands throughout the day also helps prevent static muscle strain (SMS) in the arm and shoulder, a common source of discomfort during prolonged mouse use.
Equipped with BioCote® antimicrobial technology, the Penguin Mouse inhibits bacterial growth, making it ideal for shared workspaces and hot desking environments.
Available in three sizes, the Penguin Mouse can be selected by measuring your hand from the first crease of your wrist to the tip of your middle finger.
| SMALL | 0-16 cm | (0-6" approx) |
| MEDIUM | 16-18 cm | (6-7" approx) |
| LARGE | 18 cm + | (7" + approx) |

Innovative design
The Penguin represents a significant breakthrough in addressing health issues caused by prolonged use of a traditional mouse. Its ambidextrous design, featuring a central 'bow-tie' switch, makes it easy to switch between right and left-handed use.
Easy-glide symmetrical base
The design lets you comfortably rest either hand next to the vertical structure, promoting the use of larger muscles in the forearm and upper arm to move the mouse. Precise cursor control can still be achieved with small hand or finger movements.
Prevention of upper limb problems
The vertical design promotes a more ergonomic posture while using the mouse, helping to prevent wrist strain. It establishes new standards for protecting against various upper limb conditions, such as repetitive strain injury (RSI) and carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), by allowing both hands to share the workload and minimising excessive wrist movements that can increase pressure on the soft tissues in the carpal tunnel.
Winner in ergonomic trials
The Penguin underwent rigorous testing conducted by VSI Risk Management and Ergonomics Inc. in collaboration with the University of Brighton in the UK.
