Educational furniture LAMM for Poliambulanza, the research and training centre of excellence
A private hospital in Brescia, pioneer of social medicine, chooses E4000 and ST13 study desks, teacher’s desks, Lucky and HL3 chairs
Continuously striving for progress, with an innovative spirit, so as to improve medical, surgical and diagnostic services for patients. This is the spirit that characterises the activities of Poliambulanza, the private hospital in Brescia, founded in the early 1900s to care for the needy and today recognised as a centre of excellence by the Joint Commission International, the world’s largest accreditation body in the health sector. Aimed at clinical, technological and organisational improvement, the non-profit organisation reinvests what it earns each year in equipment, expansion works and in activities that will improve the services offered, for the benefit of its users.
The Brescian hospital’s ambitious quest for progress met with LAMM products, chosen to renovate the Eugenia Menni educational park, a centre dedicated to scientific research and to the training of healthcare personnel, also at an international level. The E4000, ST13 study desks and the HL3 chairs – FSC® C134805 certified – together with the Lucky chairs furnish and make the classrooms and library of the prestigious centre functional, allowing the rooms to meet the most modern needs and requirements. The E4000 study desks, installed in the examination room, are equipped with a flip-up writing surface. The table top, seat and backrest are in Abet oak finish laminate, while the frame is painted in silver. The integrated, continuous system of seats and tables is fixed on bars that connect the rows.
For two further classrooms and the library, the choice fell on the innovative ST13 monobloc system, consisting of a desk with a fixed writing surface and two swivel chairs supported by pivoting press-moulded arms. The comfortable writing surface (50 cm depth) is in Abet beech finish laminate version and is combined with a New Modulamm plywood seat in the same finish. The structure, painted in silver, incorporates electrical sockets. Fastening is carried out on inter-row bars, with the first modules equipped with a 21 cm high extruded aluminium front panel.
The supply also includes: teacher’s desks, HL3 chairs with swivel aluminium base, removable armrests, polished aluminium armrests, upholstered in Inca faux leather; to complete the colourful and very light Lucky chairs in polypropylene, chosen in the version with four legs and armrests painted in silver.
