12.1.14 | Oakland, CA | Friant & Associates, manufacturer of high-quality, affordable office furniture, today announced the availability of Verity, a complete benching system that creates great-looking, defined spaces to support various types of work and foster interactions throughout the office.

As a hard-working benching solution, Verity addresses today’s converging business realities by supporting the preference towards collaboration and casual interactions, as well as offering a smaller footprint to help curb real estate costs.

To create a positive and supportive open work environment, Verity offers the right mix of components to balance privacy needs with group interactions. Screens in fabric, glass or marker board and space dividing storage options create privacy for workers that need focused attention to perform their tasks. Power and data run discreetly underneath the bench for full connectivity and a seamless look.

“Verity strikes the right balance by fostering privacy and collaboration to maintain a productive and a happily, buzzing workplace,” said Paul Friant, CEO and Founder of Friant. “It looks great and offers tons of value for any growing business looking for an adaptable, space saving system.”

Verity Stand-Alone units are pre-configured stations and offer a quicker and convenient way to order and install the system, with accessories and storage easily added. For a fully customized look, Verity Elements allows for a greater selection of materials including frames, surface, storage and accessories.
