As part of ‘Discovery Week’, we welcomed Year 8 pupils from Krouna Primary School to our Mias OC premises. The aim was to show them how office furniture is made — from the initial design right through to the finished product, which they could take home with them.
After a brief introduction to the company, we showed the pupils what we actually manufacture and, together, we took a look at the furniture production process. The office design in the Pcon programme sparked a great deal of interest, as the pupils were able to try for themselves how a modern workspace is created.
This was followed by a tour of the production facilities, which took the pupils through our entire production hall and the individual stages of production, without which no piece of furniture could be made. And then came the part everyone was looking forward to the most — making their own wooden bookends. The result was brilliant, and the joy of seeing the finished products was even greater.
Thank you to Krouna Primary School for visiting. It was lovely to see how the children aren’t afraid to try new things and are keen to get stuck into their work.
