Leominster, MA – May 24, 2018 – AIS, a leading manufacturer of commercial office furniture and seating, unveils additions to its contemporary Calibrate® Series at NeoCon 2018 with new conferencing products and an open-plan desking system.
Calibrate® Conferencing
As an extension of AIS’s popular laminate desking and storage solutions, Calibrate® Conferencing tables and solutions offer a holistic design aesthetic – integrating conferencing spaces into any work environment at an affordable price.
“Calibrate Conferencing is created for today’s teams with meeting room designs that are simple, relevant and ready to help people engage with one another,” Executive Vice President of Product Development Bill Stewich said.
From the conference room to the private office to the open floorplan, seamless levels of integration are easily achieved within and across the workplace with the popular Calibrate® laminate solutions of AIS.
Because the new tables and conferencing products coordinate with the existing Calibrate® Series, it’s easy to specify, order and afford a look that’s sophisticated and coordinated. The collection also includes buffets, bookcases and receptacle bins. Continuity is created through shared materiality, dimensions, hardware and other design elements, while technology is supported with ample options for power/data access.
Calibrate® Conferencing’s functional and design choices include a variety of sizes, shapes, edge details, bases and power/data options. Conference tabletops can be specified as rectangular, “boat”-shaped or tapered. The tapered shape supports views for all table participants. Table-base options range from two to four in quantity, offering greater size capabilities and choices. Four hardware pull styles and 18 Grade A laminate top choices provide unlimited custom looks. Power and data options optimize convenience for individuals and teams. Kitted (pre-specified) tables also are available – one product code delivers the base, top and required power/data.
Unveiling at NeoCon 2018, Calibrate® Conferencing will be available starting in July.
Calibrate Community™
Also making its debut at NeoCon as part of the Calibrate® Series is a new open-plan desking system by AIS. Calibrate Community™ is a thoughtful solution reflecting simplicity and flexibility as it accommodates the personal needs of individuals and the collaborative needs of teams. Offering a variety of planning applications and off-modular capabilities, Calibrate Community™ provides ample storage options, plus power and data that’s easily accessible, discretely managed and intentionally incorporated as part of the system.
“Inherently designed as an alternative to panel systems, Calibrate Community provides the right balance of individual space and team areas. Providing functional reconfiguration adjustments throughout the workday and technology support, users can appreciate more choices and easily remain focused on the task at hand,” Stewich said.
Unveiling at Neocon 2018, Calibrate Community™ will be available later this fall.
