Sandwell PCT Case Study

Sandwell PCT

KI have provided a stimulating and efficient storage solution for Sandwell NHS Primary Care Trust (Sandwell PCT). The results of an audit showed that they needed to change the size of desks in order to meet their aim to provide more flexible and unassigned workstations. Sandwell PCT also wanted to change to central storage for both teams and individuals, removing individual pedestals. This required an integrated approach to storage.

KI's 800 Series was specified in a high white gloss finish with contrasting red and blue sloped tops, the interior provides an efficient and stimulating work environment. The extensive system range was utilised in many different ways.

KI have provided high quality, innovative and flexible furniture for South Thames College's newly constructed building and refurbished Grade II listed building. Scott Brownrigg Interior Design specified KI's Kite Table System, Matrix stacking chair and the Perry chair designed by renowned sculptor, Charles Perry. The KI furniture was purchased within a package approved by the 'Southern Universities Purchasing Consortium' (SUPC). Kite tables were chosen for the meeting rooms allowing for greater flexibility in the use of the space. When not in use the table frame folds allowing the tops to flip down.
