SERVICED OFFICES
Solve Workplace Challenges
Working with small businesses at our Business Centre in Wokingham, we’ve seen another year of challenges- from last winter’s lockdown to ‘back to work’. Even those who enjoy the flexibility of home working are craving normality. Many have struggled with the challenges of children, noise, distraction, loneliness and low productivity. Office life provides a hub for exciting ideas to flourish and just makes communication easier.
As a result, 2021 was the year demand for serviced offices skyrocketed, although in a less 9-5 sense, with flexible working days and hours. Self-employed people and small businesses want a better place to work, but also need easy 24/7 access. Flexible terms and shorter contracts are a must: renting either a serviced office or a shared hotdesking room gives them that. We’ve also seen an interesting new development with bigger companies funding their ‘working from home’ staff to use serviced offices locally to their homes - it’s a cost saving compared to the type of pricey long lease space they are used to.
We’re seeing a similar trend with meeting rooms, as bookings increase again. Zoom meetings had their well-publicised challenges. People missed the buzz and interaction of a real life meeting, as well as the huge technical advantages of a fully equipped meeting room. Face-to-face meetings remove so many frustrating hurdles. The conclusion seems to be that the number of unnecessary meetings has been cut, but that the essential ones are now even more important to get right. 2022 is going to consolidate this hybrid of remote and physical working environments for companies and the individuals who work for them. Serviced offices and meeting room hire will remain an important part of that picture.

MT Millar is a furniture manufacturer company based in Wokingham, Berkshire. We manufacture commercial and retail ergonomic office furniture specialising in height adjustable desks, chairs, and other accessories in the workspace.
High quality ergonomic design such as height adjustable desks, has shown to increase work quality, efficiency, and productiveness as well as overall wellbeing. These factors are very important to us at MT Millar, so everything we design and produce has an ergonomic aspect imbedded into the product.
All our height adjustable workstations have been designed and manufactured in the UK. We offer a range of desks depending on the look you are trying to achieve and price range. All our workstations are fitted with the same, premium desk frame and electric height adjustment mechanism, so you can be safe in the knowledge that every desk is of the highest quality.
We offer four slightly different workstations which can be a variety of materials and colours to suit the customer. All with their own strengths and varying appearances but all with style and function built into them. We also offer custom additions/ designs so let us know if you have a bespoke request.
As well as desks, we also supply accessories such as monitor arms, chairs, trolleys, cable trays, laptop/tablet mounts and lighting. When you combine these items all together, a truly ergonomic workspace can occur.
