Office Furnishing & Design: Choose Your Table Wisely!

Office furnishing and design experts recognize that a table is more than just a gathering point; it is the place where business transactions are completed and lasting relationships are forged. Whether you are furnishing a conference room, a cafeteria, meeting areas, or a break room, it is important to choose a table that is both durable and attractive. Below is a look at the ways that stainless steel-based tables can foster comfort and productivity for your clients, their staff, and their guests.  

Why the Choice of Table is Important in an Office Setting  

Your customers only have one chance to make a winning first impression with a potential client or stakeholder. They’ll want an office environment that is professional, comfortable, and tastefully furnished. Maximization of space is also important, as is a sharp, clean appearance. Essentially, there are three reasons why tables with pedestal bases are growing in popularity compared to tables with H-frame bases:  

  • Beauty: The design of pedestal-styled tables is more aesthetically pleasing
  • Utility: Pedestal bases allow more guests to be seated around the table
  • Comfort: Guests seated around a table with a pedestal base are not forced to “straddle” a table       leg with their knees

How a Table with a Stainless Base Will Enhance Their Office Ambiance  

The aesthetic design of an office plays a key role in the visitors’ overall experience with their company. In addition to the style of the table’s base, the material used to manufacture the base is also important. Tables with a stainless steel base help foster comfort and build a positive ambiance. Here are a few ways that a table with a stainless steel pedestal base will help stakeholders and visitors feel comfortable in an office environment:  

  • JI Bases’ stainless steel bases have a brushed finish that is attractive to guests
  • The non-porous construction of stainless steel help prevent bacteria from embedding in the             base’s surface
  • Stainless steel is easy to clean and keep looking “like new”
  • Each top plate (the part that attaches to the table top) is cast iron, the strongest, most durable         material for supporting the table top.

Choosing the Best Stainless Steel Table Provider for Your Office  

Once you have decided to invest in tables with high quality, stainless steel bases for your office project, you need to choose a trustworthy provider. Because there is a wide degree of variance among stainless steel manufacturers, it is vital that you evaluate potential providers with care. As you evaluate table base providers, you should seek a company that offers the following:  

  • An experienced team of professionals
  • Dispatch of orders within 24 hours of receiving your purchase order
  • The ability to fill large orders (no minimums) and grow alongside your office
  • Proven years of experience in the successful supply of stainless steel bases
  • A rigorous set of quality control procedures to ensure product quality
  • Construction of products that meet specific requirements, such as ADA applications
