The Total Office
WHO?
The Total Office was established in 1997. Two years later we relocated to a new office with over 4,500 square feet of space on Airport Road, which remained our home until last year. In 2005, we opened a 20,000 square feet warehouse facility and four years after that, a LEED - certified office in Abu Dhabi where we increased our portfolio with Kusch + Co, Orangebox and HAG. Last year, the company started an in - house upholstery division. We have a team of 60 and continue to grow. We provide office furniture to corporate companies and our primary market is the banking, oil and gas and education sector. From North America to Europe, the UK to South East Asia, we offer price points and speed of delivery.WHATS NEW?
The Total Office has introduced two innovative products that have paved the way with designers and end users to give them new ways of working; Idea Paint and Conflux Lighting. Idea Paint is paint that can turn any surface into a dry - erase surface and Conflux Lighting is a comprehensive line of LED lighting, which is the first to use a PIR sensor, which works in conjunction with a users body heat. In addition, it also features a wireless - charging Powermat. From 2009, The Total Office had a big push with ergonomics and sustainability. The Abu Dhabi showroom is the first in the Emirate to have LEED certification and we have just opened a Dubai showroom this year where we expect to receive LEED Gold certification. The Total Office UAE, on behalf of Orangebox, has won the Best of Category award at the Office Exhibition for its CWTCH range of seating.
Understanding the principles and fit of the CWTCH in the modern workplace, we have created a brochure for collaborative space. It is our focus to learn and educate clients and others on the subject.
USPs?
We have multiple facilities in the UAE including a 20,000 square feet warehouse facility with an environmentally conscious nature, with two LEED certified offices. We have a multicultural and diversified sales team to address the variety of cultures within the UAE.
We have the experience to support international corporations within the Middle East via our dealer network.
In addition to the work we do, we believe in education. With our focus year after year on subjects such as ergonomics, sustainability and now collaborative spaces, we add value and that keeps ahead of the competition. The Total Office insists on meeting the clients requirements by providing the right solution and without compromising on quality. Transparency is fundamental to every transaction and is the key to the success of maintaining our client base and partnerships.
