Keeping technology in its place…
Our range of Voyager lecterns were first on the market to feature an innovative side stop and back stop rack shelving system allowing users to secure their AV/IT equipment and still be able to use it with the door locked.
Streamline your installation…
We were the first in the market to offer a removable racking system, allowing the rack to be populated at the integrators premises prior to the lectern being delivered, saving time during the installation process.
