Folding and flip-top tables let a training room, hall or meeting space change shape quickly and pack away when the session ends. Every table here comes from the Dynamic Office Solutions Impulse range: folding rectangle, semi-circle and trapezium tables, and Impulse Plus flip-top tables in rectangular, slimline rectangular and 1600mm semi-circle sizes.
How to choose a flexible table
Consider the room's second use as much as its first.
- Flip-top tables tip the top vertical so several can nest together against a wall, which is the quicker option if the room changes daily.
- Folding leg tables fold completely flat for storing in a cupboard, and suit rooms that are cleared for weeks at a time.
- Trapezium and semi-circle tops join to make horseshoe, round and cluster layouts for training, while rectangles line up in rows.
- The slimline flip-top rectangle is the one to pick where corridors or door widths are tight when tables are moved.
- Match the top size to your chairs, allow enough width per person, and check that stored tables fit the cupboard you have.
For training rooms, community spaces and project work
Office and facilities managers buy these in multiples for training suites, canteens and multi-use rooms, and a quote for a room's worth is the normal way to order. Designers and fit-out contractors specifying flexible meeting space can combine flip-top tables with stacking visitor seating from the same manufacturer. A home worker who runs workshops or needs an occasional second desk can buy a single folding table and put it away afterwards.
These tables travel to the UK mainland direct from the manufacturer, and pricing on multiples is available through trade and quotes. For tables that stay put in a canteen or breakout space, see breakout and cafe tables.
