Then you spot the price tag: £1,000+ . Most organisations settle for "good enough" because that price seems unavoidable. But what if you didn’t have to compromise? There's a smarter option: professionally refurbished premium office furniture . The same iconic designs, high-end engineering, and ergonomic innovation - for 50–80% less.
