General FAQ questions about everything concerning our sector

❓ General frequently asked questions
about offices, furnishing and ergonomics

🟠 How do I efficiently
furnish my office?

An efficient office setup
starts with an analysis of work processes, circulation, acoustics and
ergonomics. Think in zones: focus areas, meeting zones, relaxation spaces and
digital infrastructure.

At Buro International, we always start from the user and the
function. With 43 years of experience in office furnishing in Belgium, we
ensure a layout that stimulates productivity and enhances well-being. From
concept to assembly, we guide every step.

🟠 What does a
professional office setup cost?

The price of a professional
office setup depends on the size of the space, the chosen furniture,
the finish and additional aspects such as lighting, acoustics or custom work.

Buro International works with both fixed budgets and on a quote basis.
We ensure transparency, optimization and smart choices tailored to your
needs and budget. Even for a single workstation.

🟠 When should I
refurnish my office?

You should best restructure your
office if:

work processes have changed

employees experience concentration or
comfort issues

the number of employees grows or
shrinks

the look no longer matches your
brand or culture

Buro International carries out both small refurnishings and
total projects. We combine practical analysis with aesthetic advice and
ergonomic optimization.

🟠 What is ergonomics in
the workplace?

Ergonomics in the workplace means
that the environment is adapted to the person – not the other way around. It's about the
correct sitting posture, desk height, lighting, ventilation and movement.

At Buro International, ergonomics is not an afterthought. Through our brand Ergo
Advice
, we guide you with professional advice based on
physiotherapeutic knowledge and practically applicable solutions.

🟠 Which office chair is
best for prolonged sitting?

The best office chair is one that is adaptable to your body,
your work style and your work environment. Pay attention: adjustable backrest,
lumbar support, seat depth, armrests and synchronous mechanism are essential.

Buro International offers top brands such as Interstuhl, BMA, ROVO and
Narbutas
– with tailored advice and guidance on setup. Our
webshop only contains models that truly comply with ergonomic guidelines.

🟠 What is the difference
between a regular and an ergonomic office chair?

A regular office chair often has
one fixed setting. An ergonomic office chair, on the other hand, adapts
completely to your body. Think of adjustable seat height, backrest,
lumbar support, armrests and tilt mechanism.

Buro International thoroughly tests and compares all models and has your
chair adjusted immediately by a specialist. This way, you avoid back pain and
significantly increase sitting comfort.

🟠 How do I correctly
adjust my office chair?

Follow these steps:

Place your feet flat on the floor

Knee angle: 90°

Seat depth: a fist-width between
your knee hollow and the seat cushion

Backrest at lumbar height

Armrests at the height of the
desk

At Buro International, we offer
guidance upon delivery and online via our ergonomics assistant Sylva,
so that every chair is used correctly. Adjustment is not a detail; it is
essential.

🟠 What are acoustic
solutions for an open-plan office?

Acoustics are crucial for
concentration and comfort. Popular solutions include:

acoustic wall panels

phone booths or pods

carpet tiles and curtains

acoustic ceiling solutions

modular partitions with
sound absorption

Buro International
designs and delivers well-thought-out acoustic solutions, integrated into the
interior and tailored to the function of the space.

🟠 What is a sit-stand
desk and is it really healthier?

A sit-stand desk allows you
to alternate between sitting and standing work. This reduces the chance of
back pain, stimulates blood circulation and increases focus.

At Buro International, you will find a wide range of sit-stand desks that are
ergonomically and visually compatible with your office environment. We also help you with
the correct posture and alternation.

🟠 Is it possible to
personalize office furniture?

Yes. At Buro International
with our configuration tool (via pCon), you can fully tailor your office chair, cabinet or table
to your needs and style: dimensions, colors, handles,
bases, finishes…

Thanks to our closed data loop, your configuration is processed flawlessly
– without manual steps – and delivered quickly.

🟠 What are the latest
trends in office design?

Current trends:

hybrid work &
home office setup

focus zones vs. collaborative
hubs

biophilic design (natural
elements)

circular materials &
sustainability

modular systems &
flexibility

Buro International responds
to this with total concepts via Burocomfort for high-end experience and Ergo
Advice
for healthy workplaces. We think ahead and design for the
future.

office design or ergonomics?
