EXPAND THE LEARNING SPACE
Now, more than ever, it’s so important to have furniture that’s future-proof and can be rearranged to meet the need at any given moment.
Mobile furniture on wheels that fit easily through a standard 3 foot doorway ensures you can quickly expand beyond the classroom and into hallways, foyers, and gyms as needed. Quickly stack unneeded tables and chairs out of the way, allowing for easy cleaning of floors and more physical distance between students.
