Agile Workplace Furniture Delivered Nationwide
As an experienced agile workplace furniture specialist in New Zealand, Europlan partnered with a major Government agency to deliver a nationwide hybrid workplace transformation across multiple locations.
The programme supported the agency’s shift to flexible, unassigned working and was built around an integrated furniture ecosystem:
- Refresh Meeting Pods
- Sit-to-stand desks
- Smart locker systems
- Haworth Soji ergonomic task chairs
- Modular soft seating
This was not simply a furniture supply project – it was a structured, multi-site rollout designed to enable agile and hybrid working at scale.
Supporting Hybrid & Unassigned Working
The agency adopted an agile workplace model where:
- Desks are shared rather than permanently assigned
- Staff split time between home and office
- Privacy is required for hybrid meetings
- Storage is flexible and secure
- Collaboration and focused work must coexist
Delivering this successfully required a specialist understanding of agile workplace furniture systems – not just individual products.
What Makes an Agile Workplace Furniture Specialist?
An agile workplace furniture specialist provides more than desks and chairs.
It requires:
- Understanding activity-based and hybrid working models
- Integrating acoustic privacy solutions
- Supporting shared workstation ergonomics
- Designing flexible collaboration zones
- Delivering consistent standards across multiple sites
This project brought all of these elements together in a coordinated nationwide rollout.
Core Workplace Solutions Delivered
- Refresh Meeting Pods for Acoustic Privacy
A significant investment was made in Refresh Meeting Pods, installed across multiple locations nationwide.
These meeting pods provide:
- Private spaces for confidential conversations
- Enclosed settings for hybrid Teams/Zoom meetings
- Acoustic separation in open-plan offices
- Improved focus and reduced noise disruption
- Sit-to-Stand Desks for Shared Workpoints
With unassigned desks, every workstation must accommodate different users daily.
The agency standardised on sit-to-stand desks, enabling:
- Fast ergonomic adjustment
- Improved comfort across shared use
- Health and wellbeing support
- Long-term flexibility
- Smart Lockers Supporting Agile Working
Secure storage is essential in agile environments.
Europlan supplied smart locker systems that:
- Enable flexible daily locker allocation
- Support clean desk policies
- Reduce clutter
- Enhance mobility across work settings
- Haworth Soji Chairs for Ergonomic Performance
To ensure shared desks maintained high ergonomic standards, the agency selected Haworth Soji chairs.
These chairs provide:
- Advanced ergonomic adjustment
- Multi-user adaptability
- Long-term durability
- High-performance seating for agile environments
- Modular Soft Seating for Collaboration
Modular soft seating was integrated throughout breakout and collaboration zones, providing:
- Flexible reconfiguration
- Informal meeting spaces
- Team touchdown areas
- A welcoming, modern aesthetic
The Challenge: Delivering Agile Workplace Furniture Nationwide
Rolling out an agile workplace model across multiple New Zealand locations required:
- Coordinated logistics for meeting pods

As a nationwide office furniture supplier, Europlan applied a repeatable delivery framework to ensure predictable outcomes across all sites.
