TalkBox Re-Introduces Privacy to Open Workplaces

Privacy booths mitigate distractions and preserve collaboration in modern offices.

Boulder, United States – January 26, 2018 /PressCable/

TalkBox is on a mission to bring privacy back to collaborative and open workspaces. Large, open offices are popular these days. While this design enables quick collaboration, it creates a new problem—how to maintain individual privacy and encourage open communication in a shared workspace.

“One of the biggest issues we’ve seen is privacy. Making a call to your doctor, family member or something like that. You can try to hide out in a bathroom, stairwell, outside or you can be on that basis with your co-workers where they pretty much know everything that’s going on in your life — obviously neither is ideal,” commented Braden O’Brien, Sales and Support Manager for TalkBox.

The solution? The creative resurrection of the phone booth. Studies show 50 percent of open office employees are dissatisfied with the level of noise in their offices, and to be more productive, they occasionally require a private space void of distractions. TalkBox’s success has come from designing custom privacy solutions for all environments. Building on the original design and functional privacy of a classic phone booth, these modern versions combine top of the line soundproofing with visual screening to eliminate the noise and distractions common in an open-plan offices.

“We see it as a two-way benefit. The noise being made inside of the TalkBox is kept to yourself — I don’t have to worry about anything I say getting out to my co-workers around me. For their benefit, I’m respecting their focus and productivity by not making noise and distracting them from their own work,” added O’Brien.

Larger than a traditional phone booth, the American-made office privacy pod comes in many configurations and can be customized to match a company’s environment, color scheme, and branding style. In addition, they are produced using only premium products, and TalkBox is dedicated to predominantly using sustainable materials. Seamless integration into collaborative environments allows teammates to benefit from open communication and have a quiet place to talk or work when needed, without sacrificing valuable square-footage.

And these booths are not just for phone calls. The Mother’s Nook by TalkBox is an ideal solution for employers needing to provide a comfortable, private space for new and nursing mothers. Meaning, no more employees stuck in supply closets or bathroom stalls.
