Purchasing resources for Conference Tables

Your basic conference room table has evolved from a large behemoth in the room to a stylized, efficient piece of art. Of course, there's still nothing that beats a solid wood conference table to communicate that you mean business. But wouldn't you like to have a piece of office furniture that allows some flexibility?

The options are much broader than they once were. Now you can order custom conference room tables with features that will help your employees get the most out of their meetings. When shopping for conference tables, look for:

1. Functional, flexible conference room table designs.
2. Technological capability built right into the meeting table.
3. Custom conference room table designs to fit your room size.

Get a conference room table that's a class act

Sleek, modern designs dominate in the conference table market. Unless your office is very traditional, a modern conference table will most likely suit your needs.

Go mod with a conference room table that adapts

You run a tight ship, and you try to maximize every inch of your office space that you can. Why buy a conference table that will just take up more square footage? A modular table system may be just what you need to solve your storage dilemma.

Get computer-friendly conference tables to get more done

These days, an office conference table does a lot more than just bring you face to face with your colleagues. Conference table designers have given much thought to the needs of businesses. For example, your employees will love designs that allow them to hook their laptops up to individual data ports built right into the conference table.

• If price is an issue, consider buying used conference tables at auction or from your state's surplus office furniture program.
