NeoCon 2017: If you need to add a quiet space for phone calls or brainstorming onto your open floor plan, check out this freestanding pod

by Brianna Crandall — July 26, 2017 — SnapCab, a provider of interlocking panels for elevator interiors and beyond, recently announced the launch of two versatile systems designed to help businesses and organizations maximize resources, space and functionality, one of which won a Silver Best of NeoCon award in the Workplace Technologies category at NeoCon 2017. The SnapCab Portal and the SnapCab Pod are said to combine top-shelf design, easy specification, and fast assembly to offer simple, seamless solutions.

SnapCab Pod

The SnapCab Pod provides individual or small-team-sized quiet movable meeting spaces. The freestanding Pod is designed for professional or institutional environments that feature an open floor plan, shared workspace, or contend with limited space, privacy and quietness. The Pod, available in three sizes, enables professionals to conduct phone calls, hold video conferences, meet with colleagues, etc., without disruption — and without leaving their workplace.

SnapCab's freestanding pod

The SnapCab Pod provides individual or small-team-sized movable meeting spaces for open floor plans.

The standard finish on the Pod is plastic laminate, but for a higher-end finish, customers can upgrade to Corning Gorilla Glass in solid colors, patterns, logos and gigapixel images.

The Pod enables businesses and building owners to utilize their space more efficiently, while offering greater flexibility and versatility. Building on a patented system of interlocking panels, SnapCab’s newest offering delivers quiet, freestanding, movable and configurable spaces.

SnapCab Portal

SnapCab CEO Glenn Bostock describes the SnapCab Portal as an “intelligent, integrated multimedia collaboration wall with a whiteboard surface, the applications of which are virtually unlimited.”

The interactive, immersive Portal features a 65” SUHD Samsung TV, integrated speakers with connectivity, and Corning Gorilla Glass for a superior whiteboard surface.

This platform enables clients to utilize their technology in a more efficient way. The Portal features a 65” SUHD Samsung TV with Quantum Dot nanocrystal technology and 4K ultra-high definition. The entire surface is made of Corning Gorilla Glass and provides a superior whiteboard surface. It also boasts integrated speakers using Corning Gorilla Glass, full HDMI, WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity. Customers can easily integrate the technology they want and need. Simple walls become interactive, immersive experiences.

Both the Portal and the Pod adhere to SnapCab’s “Simplified” standards, says the company, meaning it is easy to order (and customize, if desired), install, and fully integrate both systems into any workspace and/or building. SnapCab is best known for its interlocking paneling systems for elevators and walls. With the Portal and Pod, SnapCab is helping companies take their messaging to the next level, while fully leveraging their physical space.
