Why Spacio Office Bricks?

Office Bricks is a modular cabin system that is quick to assemble and disassemble, while creating sound-absorbing work and privacy areas.

The perfect solution for:

• Open office environments• Start-ups• Call centres• Agencies• Financial service providers• Trade fairs and road shows• E-Learning• Lounges (airports, train stations, etc.)• Noise-intensive production lines

Office Bricks is the first patented sound insulating cabin system for professional use in office, fair trade and industry environments that can be simply stuck together, without drilling, screwing or the use of adhesive bonding, due to its modular design.

All components are standarised and precision-made using CNC machines. Because of the modular design cabins can be flexibly adjusted to existing rooms.

The assembly time for an Office Brick is quick and can be done by us or by the customer himself as no drilling, screwing or proofing is needed. Our cabins are not permanent installations, but are units that can simply be demounted and assembled when moving to another office building. Because of this modular brick concept our cabin systems are also well suited for use at trade fairs and road shows. As a special service we also offer customised branding to adapt them to the existing environment or match with existing CI guidelines.
