How often does a lack of accessible charging points cause guest frustration, both in a corporate and leisure environment? Whether it’s guests in a hotel lobby searching for a plug, delegates at a conference running out of battery mid-presentation, or even in a meeting and having to run extensions around the room that could be hazardous. Access to power is no longer a luxury, it’s a necessity.
In today’s connected world, venues must cater to both work and leisure needs. Burgess Furniture is leading the way with power-assisted hospitality furniture that seamlessly integrates plug sockets and ports for multiple devices, helping your guests stay charged, productive, and stress-free.
Power where you need it most
From hotel receptions to bedrooms, casual seating to high-pressure meetings, the demand for accessible charging has never been higher. We’ve all experienced the inconvenience of crawling under tables, plugging way too many devices into one extension, or asking staff for an extension lead. It’s not ideal, and it doesn’t reflect the smooth, professional image that venues strive to maintain.
The solution? Furniture that is designed with built-in power modules.
Key benefits of integrated power in furniture:
- Discreet charging modules that blend with modern interiors
- Multiple socket types and USB ports to suit international travellers
- Wireless charging options for cable-free convenience
- Durable and premium materials for long-lasting performance
- Clutter-free aesthetics for a clean, professional look
- Future-proof technology to impress business clients and guests alike
Keeping conferences & meetings connected
Nothing disrupts a meeting more than someone rushing off to find a plug. Our Configure-8 Flip-top tables are designed for meeting rooms and conference spaces, with concealed power modules that keep tech accessible yet invisible. Whether it’s charging laptops, phones, or tablets, guests can stay focused and connected without the distractions of low battery anxiety.
This sleek integration also makes changeovers quicker and cleaner, avoiding tangled cables and extension leads across the floor, removing the potential of anyone tripping on a rogue cable. For venues juggling tight event schedules, it’s a smart, time-saving investment.
Charging in breakout areas
It’s not just the boardroom that benefits from smart charging. Casual seating spaces like hotel lobbies, bars, or breakout areas are perfect for informal working or relaxing with a device in hand. Our SmartRocks seating solutions offer stylish, contemporary seating with integrated power ports, including USB and plug sockets. For more formal seating, our TriSmart tables house power modules underneath the tabletop. Both are seamless solutions for charging while chatting, working, or waiting.
For an extra touch of innovation, wireless charging options are a great way to get that wow factor, which is ideal for modern smartphones and tech-savvy guests.
Don’t let dead phone batteries ruin the guest experience
Offering integrated power is more than a convenience; it’s a competitive advantage and helps increase revenue. After a long day visiting the sights or a business call that lasted more than expected, your guests will greatly appreciate the extra power boost to see them through. No power means guest are more than likely to return to their rooms to recharge, but giving them the option to charge in the bar or restaurant will encourage them to enjoy your services for longer.
