A basic element in every workplace, the office pedestal has long since shed its traditional role as paper filer, having had to accommodate the specific needs of those using it. Focusing on improving the tried and tested, Hettich presents new storage solutions and the first stationary pedestal in portrait format: “BigOrg@Tower”.

Systema Top 2000
The perfectly coordinated system components from Hettich's “Systema Top 2000” range set new standards in first-rate office organisation. For example, innovative storage solutions are provided by a tall pencil tray that holds 54 per cent more content. The flexible wavy organiser can be used for optimising the use of drawer space, dividing it up to suit user needs.
Instead of employing the conventional suspension filing cradle in the lower section, the "OrgaTank" pullout creates vertically organised storage space for larger-type objects, such as drinks bottles or other personal belongings.
"P2O", the push-to-open mechanism for drawers, paves the way to the designer-style office with handle-free fronts. Hidden from view, the technology opens furniture fronts in response to a nudge. Meanwhile, furniture doors, drawers and pullouts equipped with "Silent System" soft closure provide a feel that's equally as luxurious as the convenience of electronic systems designed for locking and unlocking either storage systems or just specific segments.

BigOrg@Tower
The stationary pedestal in portrait format is the first modular system for benches. Similar in function to a larder unit, it provides access to storage space with just one opening movement. In addition, contents can be removed and put back in from both sides, making efficient use of existing space while tailoring it to individual needs. New organiser elements facilitate access to the good old lever-arch file. Being so tall, “BigOrg@Tower” also provides screening as well as a sound barrier between workstations. Designed along the lines of the desk pedestal, its assembly compares with that of the familiar “Systema Top 2000” pedestal system.
