Modern office spaces are constantly changing, and more and more companies are looking for flexible, efficient and employee-friendly solutions. Office PODs have become popular alternatives to traditional boardrooms and the challenges of open plan offices. These multi-purpose space solutions can be used to create functional workspaces for a variety of needs - whether it's a task requiring concentration, a quick meeting or a video call. In this article, we take a look at how to choose the right office POD for your company's unique needs.
What is office POD and why is it important in the modern working environment?
Office-POD is compact, self-contained workspace, which provides acoustic and visual privacy in open working environments. POD solutions range from single-seat phone booths to multi-seat meeting rooms. These modern workspace solutions are adaptable, often portable and designed to meet the diverse needs of the modern workplace.
In the modern work environment, office PODs are particularly important because they:
- Provide acoustic protection, enabling concentration and private conversations
- Create flexible workspaces that can be used for different purposes
- Improve work efficiency by providing quiet spaces for tasks that require concentration
- Support hybrid working by providing facilities for video conferencing
- Help optimise the use of office space without fixed structures
As a pioneer in the Finnish furniture industry, we have developed high-quality POD workspaces that combine stylish Nordic design with functional functionality. Discover our innovative POD workspaces and find the right solution for your business to meet the challenges of a modern working environment.
How to identify the real POD needs of your business?
Before purchasing office PODs, it is important to identify the real needs of your business. Every working environment is unique and choosing the right POD solution requires careful planning.
Start by considering the following questions:
- Use of the space - Are PODs mainly needed for phone calls, intensive work, small group discussions or videoconferencing?
- Number of users - How many people use POD at the same time? Do you need different sizes of solutions?
- Space constraints - What size PODs can you fit in your office? Is portability an important feature?
- Acoustic requirements - How much soundproofing is needed? Are there specific acoustic challenges in the office?
- Visual appearance - What style and colour scheme suits the look of your office?
| Purpose | Recommended type of POD | Main features |
|---|---|---|
| Telephone and video conferencing | 1 person phone booth | Excellent acoustics, good lighting, small table top |
| Work that requires concentration | 1-2 person workspace | Ergonomic workstation, acoustic insulation, adjustable lighting |
| Small meetings | 2-4 person negotiation POD | Seating for all, table space, technology interfaces |
| Spontaneous meetings | Mobile POD | Wheels, compact size, versatility |

POD ROLL - a mobile solution for dynamic working environments
To meet the needs of dynamic and changing working environments, we have developed POD ROLL -workspace, bringing flexibility to office environments. POD ROLL is an innovative response to the challenges of the modern office.
POD ROLL is a compact acoustic workspace that is ideal for:
- For spontaneous meetings and discussions
- Independent work that requires concentration
- For spaces where the layout changes frequently
- For offices that want to maximise the use of space
The most important feature of the POD ROLL is its mobility. The workspace is equipped with wheels, which allow it to be easily moved and turned to where it is needed. This makes it an ideal solution for offices where needs change throughout the day or where there is a need to keep the space adaptable.
Despite its compact size, POD ROLL provides a high-quality acoustic environment for focused work or private conversations. Its stylish Nordic design combines aesthetics and practicality, making it a pleasant addition to any working environment.
How to choose a cost-effective and sustainable POD solution?
Purchasing office PODs is an investment in employee well-being, efficiency and office functionality. Here are some key considerations to help you assess the value of your investment:
- Quality and durability - High-quality materials and construction ensure that the POD solution can withstand daily use. Good quality is reflected not only in durability, but also in functionality and ease of use.
- Convertibility and scalability - Choose a solution that adapts to the changing needs of your business. Portable PODs, such as POD ROLL, allow flexible use of space.
- Environmental friendliness - Responsibly produced furniture is a sustainable choice for both the environment and business.
- Total cost - Estimate the costs in the long term. A low-cost POD solution can become more expensive if it needs to be replaced quickly or if it does not meet operational requirements.
We are committed to providing sustainable, high-quality POD solutions that add real value to your business. We use high quality materials and pay particular attention to the durability and functionality of our products.
Investing in a quality workspace solution pays off in terms of improved employee satisfaction, efficiency and wellbeing. Check out our POD workspaces and let us help you find the best solution for your business.
