Total environment. The breadth of vocabulary enables clients to create a total office landscape, from a basic table to a desk based and performance wall based workstation system. All with a single product platform and a set of common core components.

Global platform. Abak Environments has been developed as a truly global platform. The core components are designed, tested and sourced globally. The product is manufactured and supported in all Herman Miller’s major regions worldwide, North America, Asia and Europe.

Culturally adaptable to local markets our global clients have the ability to standardise product platforms regionally and have a valuable tool to help them create consistent global standards and branding. While our regional based clients get access to an international quality product line at local lead times and pricing.

Change planning style. Abak Environments is also unique in the range of planning styles that it can adopt without component redundancy. The beam understructure cannot only provide right angle and 120 degree shaped desking but also benching and lineal planning environments easily.

Abak Environments is unique in its ability to connect in two dimensions allowing for workstations to cluster by locking the beams together. This not only makes the workstations stronger, it enables the leg support and wire management to be reduced to the minimum. Fewer parts allows easier inventory management and lower cost.

Low cost of ownership. Abak Environments is based around a simple yet beautiful set of core components designed to give the maximum performance and minimum product life cost of ownership. Not only in real terms, such as the cost of installation, modification and product refresh, but also in hidden terms such as eliminating redundant components when unexpected change occurs. A future proofed solution.

Flexible wire management. All wire management on Abak Environments connects to the beam infrastructure. This allows baskets and clips to slide to the point required,  the hinge opens for easy access, and allow IT and services to install wiring prior to worksurfaces being attached.
