Unless you work from home or are employed by a very small concern alongside only a few colleagues and assistants, your business premises probably features a boardroom – a separate and private space and place that is principally used for board meetings and other important workplace meetings, training sessions, seminars, workshops, team-building sessions, and conferences.
In these scenarios, the space within a standard stand-alone private office is inadequate to seat and accommodate your group in comfort. You need a larger enclosed room, equipped with a substantial table to use as a work surface, plus the necessary number of chairs to seat all attendees around this special boardroom table.
Now you have a distinctive boardroom – a separate, private room that is furnished with specific pieces that are intended for executive use during meetings and conferences. Essential furniture pieces consist of comfortable, better-than-average quality, matching chairs, and a designated table.
The room itself, plus its furniture, is fundamentally designed to accommodate the organisation’s board of directors – a group of individuals who have been elected and appointed as the concern’s board members, who represent the concern’s shareholders.
Board members typically consist of company insiders and/or others from outside the company – experienced or qualified persons who have been elected to join the board of directors. In the boardroom, board members gather and meet to discuss the most important and immediate issues the organisation faces. Here, they make joint decisions about the way forward.
It is evident that most companies require at least one boardroom, complete with its made-for-purpose table, irrespective of the entity’s registered status.
In South Africa, it is a legal requirement that public companies must have at least three directors. These companies are the only ones that can be listed on the Johannesburg Securities Exchange (the JSE), often referred to as simply “the stock exchange”. Public companies need to be audited and must produce audited financial statements that are tabled with their shareholders each year.
Whether you regularly of periodically host meetings, discussions, and/or conferences, you will need a boardroom table, which is a specific item, made for specific uses, which means that it is not a piece of furniture that you are likely to find at most furniture retail outlets.
However, at Quantum Office Furniture, you have numerous options from which to choose, since we ensure that office furniture collections are and remain comprehensive.

Aesthetically, our Veneer range, although also very modern, has a more substantial appearance in both design and colour, which is somewhat darker than the Laminate range.
Customers who prefer very light and lightweight-looking tables are particularly taken with our laminated tables, whilst those who still prefer a more classic, substantial look for their tables tend to select models from our veneer range.
