Qyos is a new line of modular and sustainable #acousticcabins with which #actiu, a specialist in the #design and manufacture of professional and contract furniture, creates islands of privacy in offices and open spaces. Qyos is the brand's first bubble cabin, designed and developed by its R&D team.

Acoustics are becoming increasingly important in the #design of workspaces. In any shared space, ambient noise can disrupt tasks requiring privacy and concentration, such as phone calls, video conferences, or complex individual projects that demand heightened focus. 

Spaces are becoming increasingly limited and demanding, so they must be designed to be increasingly versatile and efficient, which is why it is essential to provide equipment that makes spaces profitable in terms of flexibility and adaptability. 

Qyos, available in three sizes capable of accommodating two to six #people, creates enclosed spaces that are acoustically isolated from the hustle and bustle of the surrounding area. It provides ergonomics and comfort for the user and meets the specific privacy needs in shared environments.

In addition to the interaction and collaboration required for team projects, the rise of hybrid spaces has spotlighted the diversity of choices that work environments must offer regarding privacy and concentration.

"Throughout the day, #people require "bubble points" that enable enhanced concentration and privacy, spaces that allow us to distance ourselves from visual and acoustic noise and keep working comfortably and increase efficiency daily. The booth can be a counterpoint solution to the overuse of meeting rooms and a strategic tool to organize space and encourage the optimal movement of #people. Like the Greek island of Chios, our booth is presented as a place of calm and refuge for a few minutes of the intensive and collaborative day-to-day", says #soledatberbegal, Brand Reputation director and advisor.

Qyos cabins are easy to assemble and dismantle and use materials that provide precision, strength and stability while optimizing assembly times and facilitating maintenance. It is easily accessible, thanks to the clipping system of the cladding, without the need for tools.

The door can be oriented to one side or the other during the installation process or allows the cabin to be flexibly adapted to the needs of use and distribution of space throughout its useful life.

Qyos offers excellent acoustic insulation from the outside to the inside and vice versa, with foams and insulating materials made from recycled PET plastic and acoustic glass for high sound-absorbing properties.

The structure is composed of steel frames and extruded aluminium profiles. It is available in multiple combinations of finishes combining textured epoxy coatings and internal and external textile and melamine coatings. It also stands out for the lighting comfort provided by low-consumption LED lighting and its wide diversity of accessories, among them low and high tables, soft seating and stools and solutions for hanging screens.

Qyos also has integrated connectivity and a sophisticated ventilation and air renewal system.

"With this innovative solution, #actiu continues to put #people at the centre of the space, taking into account their well-being, comfort and ergonomics and offering them the furniture as a tool to facilitate their daily lives, as it has been doing since 1968. Moreover, its #design, materials and ease of assembly make it one of the most sustainable cabins on the market," says Soledad Berbegal.

Qyos has been strategically designed with optimal dimensions for use after careful consideration of logistical optimization and mobility during installation to reduce transport costs and assembly times.
