The workspace is where big decisions are made, projects take shape, and team productivity takes on meaning.
Choosing the right office furniture directly affects employee focus, comfort during working hours, team interaction, and even the physical health of individuals.
Meanwhile, brands are emerging that have thought beyond producing desks and partitions and are aiming for true optimization of the workspace.
One of these reputable brands is Friant, which has earned a special place in the world of office furniture for years by designing modern and functional systems.
Among this brand’s products, System 2 Cubicles is known as one of the most popular and widely used solutions; a system that, by combining smart design, flexibility in layout, and high durability, has been able to meet the needs of modern offices well.
Overview
System 2 Cubicles is an advanced partitioning system from the renowned brand Friant, designed to create an organized, professional, and flexible workspace.
Instead of using complex multi-piece or modular panels, this product uses integrated, durable panels that have a cleaner appearance, greater durability, and easier installation.
Friant office furniture products are well known for being high quality and low cost, making the Friant System 2 panel system a good solution for companies looking for products that will last without exceeding the budget.
Their quality constructions and design aesthetics mean you won’t need to sacrifice quality for price.
What Makes Friant System 2 Cubicles Different?
One of the most important features of System 2 Cubicles by Friant is the use of a honeycomb core in the panels.
This technology makes the panels:
- While being lightweight, they are very resistant and stable,
- Do not deteriorate or bend over time,
- It is a safe choice for high-traffic offices or long-term projects.
System 2 Benefits and Features
1. Easy Installation and Disassembly
One of the features of Friant System 2 is its simple and practical design with a very easy installation process.
This system has full-length steel and aluminum connectors that are strong and durable.
The design of this system is such that just one person can easily install the entire system, without the need for a large team or complex tools.
This system uses Snap-On legs and cantilever table holders that allow you to:
- Set up workstations in a short time.
- Change the layout of your space without demolition or renovation.
- Easily move or add desks and panels as your company grows.
2. Variety of Finishes, Looks, and Technical
System 2 Cubicles is fully customizable in terms of design.
You can choose from options such as:
- Professional office fabrics in a variety of colors
- 40 Laminate finishes for a modern, formal look
- Acoustic panels to reduce noise and increase focus
- Powered and non-powered panels
- You can use Partial Glazed Panels or Frameless Glass Panels to increase the sense of openness, allow better natural light to flow, and give the workspace a professional, contemporary look.
3. Built to Last
The honeycomb core construction of this system is strong and resistant to pressure and impact. It is designed to distribute pressure and increase durability evenly.
This type of design ensures that this system can withstand long-term use and even harsh conditions, without losing its quality or performance.
Therefore, in addition to being strong and durable, it is also an economical and cost-effective choice for offices.
4. Earth-Friendly
For companies that care about social and environmental responsibility, System 2 Cubicles is a perfect choice:
- Uses recyclable materials
- Low VOC adhesives (low odor and non-toxic)
- Helps achieve LEED points on green building projects
Friant products are UL-approved and meet or exceed the California (CARB) air quality emissions standards — the most stringent in the country — for composite wood products.
Friant System 2 fabrics are made of a blend of recycled polyester fibers and are applied in a direction that maximizes yardage per roll applied to the panel, which means less waste.
The typical System 2 workstation is comprised of 45% recycled content (30% pre-consumer plus 15% post-consumer).
For LEED, Recycled Content is the sum of post-consumer recycled content plus half of the pre-consumer content (30%).
System 2 components are constructed from wood, steel, plastic, copper, aluminum, and fabric.
At the end of its useful life, System 2 is up to 75% recyclable. Only wood is not recyclable due to its finishes and adhesives.
Although all finishes and cleaners used in the manufacturing process are water-based.
System 2 is designed for durability with a limited lifetime warranty and can be reused on many building projects.
The panel construction also makes it easy to reconfigure System 2 for reuse.
LEED credits may be achieved when salvaged, refurbished, or used furniture is used on a project, especially if the material is extracted close to the job location.
5. Flexibility in Workspace Design
In this cubicle, you can choose the height of the panels based on the level of privacy desired and adjust the space layout according to the needs of teams and departments, from small offices to large organizational spaces.
This system also easily combines with other Friant brand products, such as height-adjustable desks, filing cabinets, and office accessories, to create an integrated, professional, and functional work environment.
6. Fast Delivery with Quick-Ship Option
For projects where office setup time is critical, the Quick-Ship option is available.
In this option, you can choose from the best-selling colors and finishes and receive the product in a shorter time than with custom orders.
