Office furniture must be both functional and ergonomic. But the design concept must also be modern so that employees feel comfortable working there. Edge banding specialist OSTERMANN supports its customers in constructing functional office furniture with an attractive design, as well as in furnishing modern office spaces with a wide variety of cutting-edge products and cutting-edge furniture construction solutions.

e-Desk

The e-Desk's height-adjustable, electrically powered table bases enable the creation of sit-stand workstations suitable for office environments. The electric adjustment facilitates switching between sitting and standing positions throughout the day, contributing to improved ergonomics and reducing prolonged static postures. These bases can be integrated into open-plan projects as well as individual offices, and offer designers a technical foundation compatible with various tabletops and configurations.

Cable Management for Height-Adjustable Desks

Integrating height-adjustable legs requires specific cable management, as cables must accommodate height variations without creating tension or bulk in the lowered position. Ostermann's range of cable management solutions includes various devices designed to guide, group, and conceal power supplies and connections. These elements facilitate workstation compliance, improve the clarity of spaces, and contribute to user safety, while maintaining a consistent aesthetic in office layouts.

Integrated Charging in the Worktop

The integration of an Evoline Circle80 recessed power outlet into the worktop provides workstations with a discreet and accessible power point. Offered by Ostermann, this solution can be complemented by a module with an induction charger integrated into the lid, enabling wireless charging of compatible smartphones. Installed directly on the desk, it limits cable clutter and meets the daily connectivity needs in office spaces.

Edge Banding

“The best edge banding is the one you can’t see!” This is one of our core principles. We are passionate about offering edge banding that closely resembles decorative panel surfaces, both visually and to the touch. This is how we have built the largest stocked range of edge banding in Europe over the past forty years.

Office Kitchen Design

In break areas, the kitchen contributes to the quality of life at work. The combination of matte white and a light wood finish creates a clean and bright base, suitable for professional environments. Recessed black handles, such as the Polka 1 and Polka 2 models, structure the fronts while maintaining clean lines. Their integration enhances the clarity of the space and facilitates cleaning, an essential point in shared areas. The consistency of the finishes, particularly with black elements around the sink and faucets, contributes to a sophisticated aesthetic.

Sinks and Faucets

For kitchens and communal areas in offices, Ostermann distributes sinks and faucets from the Blanco, Franke, and Reginox ranges. Available models cover various configurations and finishes, including matte black, suitable for contemporary designs. Mixers and waste systems can be coordinated or contrasting, allowing the equipment to be adapted to the project's aesthetic vision. The option to order components in sets or individually facilitates customization and adaptation to site constraints.

Recessed Handles

Recessed handles are an ideal solution for storage fronts in offices, shared kitchens, or storage areas. They maintain flat surfaces and minimize imperfections in high-traffic areas. Compatible with push-to-open mechanisms, they are available in various shapes (L or C) and materials, from aluminum with several finishes to solid wood. Their integration contributes to a clean, modern aesthetic while meeting the functional requirements of commercial spaces.

Integrated Lighting

Supplementary lighting plays a key role in office design, particularly in storage areas or break rooms. Channel Line D aluminum profiles combined with Versa Linear LED strips allow for the discreet integration of a light source into shelves or niches. This type of installation enhances visual comfort, highlights specific design elements, and complements natural or general lighting. Furthermore, the low energy consumption of LEDs meets the requirements for controlling operating costs in professional environments.
