There are many variables you may look for when purchasing new classroom tables, such as:
- Innovative designs
- Classroom functionality
- Durability and stability

- Wide colour ranges
At Metalliform we continuously strive to develop table solutions that can adapt to the ever changing needs of every learning environment by taking into account all of these factors.
Introducing a Fantastic Selection of Modular Classroom Tables
Whilst standard classroom tables are as popular as ever, more and more there is increased need for exciting and modern school tables. The modular classroom tables provide wide scope for different learning styles, and Metalliform is continuously developing innovative and exciting ways of meeting these new requirements with great feature packed ranges.
Our ever expanding range really can bring increased flexibility and integration into the classroom. Our well established Blogger Table (pictured above) and Wedge Table provide maximum versatility with their ability to be wheeled away when not in use, at the same time as being great for bringing students together in an interactive environment.
We have recently added the new Petal Table and Tri Table which can also be placed together to create various shape combinations to suit any classroom situation.
Modular Classroom Tables For Increased Learning
The introduction of modular tables into the modern classroom is having an increasingly positive reaction. These modern twist on the basic classroom table is not just helping to rejuvenate the traditional classroom but is also getting teachers and practitioners to think about teaching methods and ways to enhance students learning experience.
These premium classroom tables allow students to integrate and communicate effectively, encouraging teamwork and interaction; whist also allowing the flexibility for individual working. The vibrant colours and unique shapes bring a classroom alive whilst encouraging movement and new ways of learning , all of which lead to a greater learning experience and improved classroom environment.
Metalliform’s Newest Addition to The Premium Range of Classroom Tables
Leaf Table
The brand new and exciting Leaf Table adds another dimension to the range. Not only can this work brilliantly as a set of four to create a circular shaped table that brings students together, but the tables can be separated to allow individual or small group work.
The Leaf can also be arranged in a set of 4 giving a fanned out effect which allows more students to sit round the table but still disperse into smaller groups. This stunning classroom table really does combine style, functionality and versatility.

School Desks And Chairs
How do I choose the right School Desks for me?
Choosing the right School Desk will depend on how you intend to use them.
- Will you need to stack the school desks to one side?
- Will you want to regularly change your classroom layout?
- Or will the school desks stay in one place most of the time?
- Have you considered whether you might need more than one size of school desk in the same room to suit the different heights and sizes of your students?
- The Metaliform range of school desks suits all of these different needs and here we explain the different features and what to look out for when choosing what to buy.
School Desks that meet the British Standard for Strength, Stability and Ergonomics
The first starting point is to make sure that you choose school desks which meet the current standard for school furniture. This is called BSEN1729 and meeting this standard ensures that your school desks are the right size for students and can stand up to the rigours of school use. All Metalliform School Desks are certified (link to product certs) to BSEN1729 so you can buy with confidence.
Making sure your School Desks are the right size
You will have noticed that in recent years children are getting bigger. Because of this School Desks are now made bigger too! What you may not realise is that at any given age there is also a much bigger range of heights and sizes of students. This means that a one size fits all approach to kitting out a classroom may not suit the needs of your students. The best place for guidance is www.schoolfurniture.uk.com
School Desks for flexible learning environments
Many new school buildings provide learning spaces which can be easily re-configured to suit different teaching styles; but for buildings old and new our School Desk range includes exciting modular designs which can easily adapt to how you teach each day.
- Blogger and Wedge school desks can be wheeled away.
- Arc Desks give a stunning new look to group or whole class lessons

Aalborg Chairs – Part of the Metalliform Ergonomic Furniture Range
Ergonomic furniture
Now available to buy online
Many of us spend a significant part of our lives sitting down, whether at school, college, in the office, working in a shop or a whole range of other seated activities. Most of us, however, spend our seated time sitting in a way that can lead to stiffness, a sore neck and, in some cases – especially those of young children – back problems that can stay with us for the rest of our lives.
Many of these problems can be linked to poor posture in the form of rounded shoulders, cramped stomach and constant twisting of the trunk. In fact while reading this you are probably hunched over with your spine curved, leading you to constantly shift position because you are uncomfortable. Correctly designed ergonomic furniture can address all of these problems.
Experts collaborate to make Aalborg ergonomic furniture
From its inception, the Aalborg ergonomic furniture range has been designed to promote good posture. The design has been developed through a series of prototypes and field trials in the UK and in Scandinavia. The design principles have been endorsed by leading surgeons, educationalists and ergonomists from around the world.
Aalborg is the result of many years of research and collaboration between furniture designers, educationalists, teachers, ergonomists and manufacturers from the UK, Europe and the USA.
Through exhaustive prototyping, testing and field trials we can now bring the products to market through significant manufacturing and distribution organizations in Europe and the UK and with distributors covering Europe, USA, Africa and the Middle and Far East.
Ergonomic furniture – comfort equals concentration
A balanced and upright posture has been shown to contribute to “significantly improved student grades” when compared to the posture promoted by regular chairs and desks. New schools with new interior spaces demand a new approach to equipment, especially furniture.
Aalborg brings innovation into school ergonomic furniture. Inspired by Danish principles of excellence in learning and by improved balance, breathing, digestion and comfort, student’s concentration and learning are all enhanced. Huge investment in research, design and the very latest manufacturing technology has resulted in an effective and developing range of ergonomic furniture to serve the needs of healthy learning.
Aalborg ergonomic furniture is available now
With Danish inspiration, British Design and manufacture , Aalborg provides a robust, fully certified, affordable and adaptable range of ergonomic furniture.
