No matter the size of your company, having private meeting pods can benefit your office greatly.

You may be wondering what an office phone booth or meeting pod is – and better yet, does my office need one? It’s relatively new to the mainstream world of office furniture; phone booths and meeting pods are small portable rooms where employees can work privately for short periods of time. This means they can take calls, join zoom meetings, and record themselves without being heard by their co-workers.  

What is an office phone booth? Office phone booths are compact acoustic pods that provide employees with a private space to utilize for phone calls, virtual meetings, and quiet focus time. Phone booths are typically designed for a capacity of 1, whereas meeting pods are best suited for 2-6 occupants per pod. These units are great for open office spaces, rental spaces, and more.

What is an office meeting pod? Office meeting pods are larger acoustic booths that employees can gather in small groups to meet for private meetings, virtual meetings, and more. Meeting pods typically fit 2-6 employees, whereas phone booths are best suited for individuals.

What makes office phone booths so great? 

  • Privacy for employees. If they need to take an important call, they can do so without others overhearing or interrupting. 
  • Great for productivity and focus. By designating a private call space, employees are able to dedicate time for important virtual meetings. Best of all, their colleagues working close to their desk won’t have to overhear anything and can focus on their own projects or meetings. 
  • They can move and grow with your office. Relocating? Expanding? No worries, your business can take the phone booth with you wherever since it’s portable and able to disassemble.
