Assuralia
A new way of working
Assuralia, a professional association of insurance companies in Belgium, introduced teleworking after Covid, as many did. However, they soon discovered that their existing building was not suitable to this way of working.
“As a professional association, our employees hold a lot of meetings. So we needed spaces in which they could attend online meetings, but also where they could collaborate. And of course, spaces where they could work in peace and quiet for maximum concentration,” says Melissa Thirion, life and health advisor at Assuralia. “We chose Pami because it is a Belgian company with local production and a European range of furniture. This fitted perfectly with our sustainability story,” concludes Thirion.
Lucia Lunetta, senior account manager at Pami, emphasises the importance of trust during the project: “Being able to start a large project like this with parties that know each other well and trust each other is a huge asset. Pami sought solutions for Assuralia in close collaboration with Wah Wah Design, and the solutions were based on functional, sustainable and aesthetic aspects.”
“We installed some tailor-made solutions such as the reception desk, fully equipped kitchen, and the coffee corner and sofas. All the furniture, whether it came as standard or was custom-made, was designed and produced in our Belgian factories,” Lucia shares with pride.
“We have a lot of booths and small meeting rooms that are used frequently,” says Melissa Thirion, who is satisfied with the end result. “It has become a pleasant space with lots of light and greenery. Our employees have adapted to their new environment very quickly.”
The collaboration between Assuralia, Wah Wah Design and Pami resulted in a modern and functional workplace that more than meets the employee’s needs.
