Havwoods invests in the future - HAVWOODS -
Leading wood surface specialists , Havwoods , has invested in its future and staff welfare with an extensive refurbishment and upgrade to the brand ’ s global offices in Carnforth , Lancashire .
To create a more cohesive , collaborative and inspirational workspace , the new look includes an incredible collection of Havwoods ’ products via a refreshed interior design , new areas and updates created for team wellbeing and increased space for further staff additions as the brand continues to expand .
As staff wellbeing is of utmost importance to the brand , new areas , furniture and design elements have been introduced to create a more functional and inspirational space for its employees . A new breakout area has been added which includes relaxation spaces , a table tennis table and a breakfast bar . Every staff member has a new desk , giving them flexibility to work both sitting down and standing up – encouraging movement throughout the day .
The new office design also plays a significant role in the staff welfare . The wide variety of products across the floors , walls and ceilings not only help staff interact and familiarise further with the products , but also help to create a calming space to work in . Natural materials such as wood are known to promote relaxation and productivity as they help to bring the outside , inside .
A new way of showcasing products , Havwoods ’ extensive collection of versatile surfaces have been incorporated throughout – resulting in an office which is now aesthetically in line with the brand ’ s five showrooms .
From different colours to interesting textures across varying surfaces , the new look allows staff to interact more first hand with the product . From the new Hushwood Acoustic panels on the ceilings to help with noise management to the dynamic Elegante Veneer panels which adorn the walls , Havwoods ’ products now take centre-stage and have been used dynamically throughout .
In an everchanging industry , even in the current market condition , Havwoods has continued to excel and invest to support company growth . As part of the renovation , the brand has created additional space for its workforce by increasing capacity in the office by 30 % to make room for more staff . In the meeting rooms , new technology solutions have been added enabling the Havwoods team to offer better digital consultations to their customers .
To create a more cohesive and collaborative work environment , the entire team now all resides in the main office area . Not only does this result in a joined customer service experience but also a more integrated team with a stronger team culture .
