Office pod market-leader Framery has released a new generation of smart pods, building on the success of Framery One, the world's first pod optimised for phone calls, released back in 2021. The new range offer greater user benefits, are more sustainable, improve over time and cost less than the models they are set to replace. The new private but fully connected work pods aim to make the workday easier, with ease of booking and automatic adaptability to the needs and preferences of each user. Now available via WorkArena, Framery's authorised dealer in Australia.
The family of four new smart pods have been released in response to the growing desire for autonomy and comfort in the workplace, which grew due to the rise of remote working, extensive digital integration and a shift towards more flexible working environments.
“These global challenges have accelerated workplace evolution. Offices everywhere are filled with hybrid teams, and workdays are filled with virtual meetings. This reflects a fundamental shift in our perception of work, and has sparked a demand for convenient and comfortable professional settings to compete with those of the home office,” says Samu Hällfors, CEO of Framery. The new generation of pods step up from the original range of Framery pods with patent-pending technology, flexibility and sustainable engineering, with the driving force behind these innovations being enhancing user experience and reducing workplace frustrations.
“It’s time to update how we think about the office. It’s no longer enough to simply provide a place to work. At Framery, we are ushering in a new era of office design, based on user needs and resulting in a high-performing workplace,” Hällfors states.
In the building of smart office environments, Framery set out to explore, build and combine new technologies into their Pod's, balancing Framery's classic engineering, sustainable sourcing and manufacturing alongside new advanced features and functionalities. A-Class soundproofing, advanced ventilation speeds and lighting optimised for video-performance, as well as ergonomic furniture and over 3000 potential colour combinations define the limitless potential of the new line of Smart Pods, which prioritise both comfort and quality. Constructed with caster wheels, these pods are designed to effortlessly move and adjust, seamlessly fitting into various workplaces or environments.
These Smart Pods offer the highest level of technological advancements for office pods, featuring adaptive airflow and pre-set lighting modes specified for both focus work and virtual calls. 4G connection allows software updates to automatically take place, as well as facilitating book ability functions. A high-resolution touchscreen panel allows users to control and customise their experience, adding to the ongoing customisation benefits of Framery's range, spanning from specification to the products lifetime.
Framery's new range prioritises flexibility, allowing customers to customise colours, technology, materials and furniture used within their pods. This process, alongside the state-of-the-art technological innovations and additions means the Smart Pods provide employees with the highest level of comfortability and performance for their everyday workday and offers a more cost-effective solution compared to building a new meeting room to accommodate an expanding office space.
