BRETFORD’S NEW KR TRAINING TABLES CREATE PRODUCTIVE, FLEXIBLE MEETING ENVIRONMENTS June 25, 2007 CHICAGO - Bretford, Inc., the leading supplier of high quality technology and media furniture that improves how people work and learn, today introduced the KR Series Conference and Training Room Tables. The new tables support technology tools like laptops or projectors and come in a wide range of sizes and shapes that can be reconfigured to accommodate different types of training applications in the same multi-purpose room. Dave Smith, product manager for Bretford, Inc. explained, “Traditional tables were designed at a time when people took ‘paper and pen’ notes, but today most professionals use laptops and other technology tools during meetings. Additionally, most training rooms need to support varying meeting sizes, like 30 people for a product launch in the morning then 12 people for an interactive session in the afternoon.” He explained, “The KR Series Tables easily handle both of these challenges. They offer a wide range of data and power options for active technology users and their modular designs can easily be reconfigured depending on the training size and style.” The new tables are ideal in business and educational environments -- for sales representatives training on the newest products or students learning the latest lesson, for example. The tables come in rectangular, trapezoid and half-round styles, which can be used individually or positioned together. Applications range from large auditorium and traditional training set-ups to more interactive U-shape or circle configurations. Additionally, each table includes ganging clips that easily attach and separate to hold the various configurations together. The KR Tables feature a wide range of optional power and data accessories for laptops and other technology products, as well as easy-to-use cord management to help keep the work surface clean and clear. The CFPS Electrical Units mount to the inside of the modesty panel to provide four electrical outlets, while the PowerHouse Monuments mount through the grommet holes in the top of the table so the power and RJ-45 data jacks are at the work surface. Additionally, the relocatable Parrot Power Clamp easily mounts to the back edge of the tables with an overhang that reveals four electrical outlets and two pairs of RJ-45 data jacks. All of the new tables fold flat and lock in the folded position for convenient and safe transport and storage. They come in a wide variety of colors and finishes to enhance the beauty of the table while minimizing the long-term effects of repeated use throughout the years. Pricing, Availability and Warranty The new KR Series Training and Conference Room Tables are currently available for order through Bretford’s national network of office products dealers and the North American dealerships of Herman Miller, Inc., global provider of office furniture and services.
