The Total Office wins 2 Gold Awards at the Office Exhibition

The Total Office bagged the Gold Award in the Technology and the Public Health Categories at the Office Awards held at the Office Exhibition 2010 at the Dubai World Trade Center today.

Accepting the Technology award, Siddharth Peters, Managing Director - The Total Office said “We are very excited to receive this award and to bring Powermat to the UAE market. Powermat wirelessly charges your mobile phones, iPods, net-books, laptops, handheld games, GPS devices etc. It really is a revolutionary way to wirelessly charge all your favorite devices from one power source without the tangled mess of wires" said Siddharth Peters. “Our solution offers the Powermat technology integrated with Teknion products and we are confident this will bring about a change in the conventional office work surfaces”.

Mriganka Travasso, Director Sales & Marketing accepted the Gold Award for Flamline Fabric in the “Public Health” category. “Health and safety plays a very important role in a public environment. We are very happy to receive this award and we will continue to contribute by introducing such products into the markets which also further strengthen our product line. Flamline is a fabric which addresses both hygiene as well as fire prevention – all in one fabric without compromising on comfort. Talking about the product Ms. Travasso said “these special fabrics are waterproof and therefore impermeable to germs and growth-inhibiting for bacteria. The protective coating allows for longer cleaning and disinfection cycles. Flamline has a protective coating made of UV-cured, environmentally compatible and its water-based lacquer meets all the requirements of DIN 4102 B1 low flammability. The fabric has self extinguishing qualities and prevents fire spreading and reduces smoke development. Moreover, Flamline is paired with flame retardant foam for seating”.
