Adopt an office serving sustainable buildings: reuse of sound booths from the Olympic village

The 2024 Olympic Games aim to be the most sustainable games. Calls for tenders have been launched in this regard for builders and developers. Furniture suppliers absolutely had to be able to ensure its purchase at the end of this largest sporting event in the world.

A partnership between Adopte un bureau and SBS

This is how the partnership between Silence Business Solution (SBS) and Adopte un bureau was born. SBS will produce the sound booths for the Olympic village with materials that will last over time and Adopte un bureau will ensure their rehabilitation and second life. The project is therefore designed from the start to last over time. It will also boost local employment since the acoustic booths will be reconditioned in Île-de-France.

The companies that buy the sound booths will allow us to go even further than sustainable construction by also thinking about responsible and committed development.

Whether they are VSE-SMEs, start-ups, or even coworking spaces, they will offer their users a sound-proof space to make calls. The cabins can accommodate 1 to 4 people depending on their size.

For Christophe Cote, the founder of Adopte un bureau: “This event had to be exemplary. It is important to think about the second life of what you buy from the start of a project. By drafting the first large-scale call for tenders asking manufacturers for a buy-out solution at the end of the life of the development, the Paris Olympics are moving the lines and showing the way. It is today entirely possible to carry out large-scale, aesthetic developments that guarantee a 2^e life in office furniture »

For Michael Cléva, Managing Director of SBS Pods (Silence Business Solutions): « Second-hand furniture projects that incorporate acoustic cabins have been in strong demand for a little over a year. Thanks to the quality of our products, we estimate that they have a lifespan of around ten years. In this sense, it is certain that joint projects with Adopte un bureau will be more and more frequent. Pool Adopte un bureau's expertise in the field of second-hand furniture and our product quality will be a strength to meet demand in the months/years to come without a doubt. »
