UAE Children Start New Year with ‘Grow Along’ Tables and Chairs

Dubai, United Arab Emirates

The new school year is fast approaching and many classrooms across the UAE are being improved with the latest designer furniture which can ‘grow along’ with the students.

The new range of Grow Along tables and chairs from MARKO are height adjustable to ensure that they fit the exact size of each individual student.

 

“There is no longer a need to change the furniture for each class. The MARKO Grow Along tables and chairs can be modified quickly and simply so that each child is comfortable. We are seeing a lot of interest from schools right across the UAE,” said Pauly Jos, Sales Manager – Furniture, OFIS, exclusive suppliers of the MARKO Grow Along range.

Students, teachers and parents will all recognise the benefits of the new designs when the schools in the UAE start back on 31 August 2008.

“The MARKO Grow Along Range is a great asset to the academy,” said Stuart Dennis, Executive Principle CEO at GEMS World Academy. “The students and teachers are well served by the new furniture that has been installed in the classrooms.”

With the height adjustable tables and chairs the need to move has become a thing of the past. Both the MARKO Grow Along table and chair come in two sizes, while the tabletop can also be put into a slanting position.

Mr. Ajai Kumar Dayal, General Manager – Retail and Marketing, OFIS said: “At OFIS, we've made a conscious decision to take on a different business model. We think of ourselves as design solution providers, not furniture vendors. We believe in a process of collaborative requirements identification before making recommendations.”
