Functional furniture for the control room – multipurpose, custom-made, modular
Functional furniture for control rooms combines the integration of technical components with intelligent detailed solutions. From air-conditioned technical cabinets and lockable storage compartments for employees to ergonomic control panels – every piece of furniture specifically supports the work processes in the 24/7 control room. Precision and clear structures are combined with individual design and high functionality at JST furniture manufacturing. The result: a control room environment that complements the operator’s workspace in a meaningful way and makes efficient use of space.
Functional furniture creates real added value in the control room
Example: Security control center: The equipment should be fit for purpose. But employee satisfaction is also important. In addition to the control room components, there are two areas in our example that require functional furniture that the conventional furniture industry cannot offer: A pantry kitchen should be included in the planning for shift work – ideally in the corporate design that also characterises the look of the control center. In addition, the focus is on the functions and interior design of the cabinet systems. Central charging stations must be integrated for the response team’s bodycams and radio devices.
Whether it’s a kitchen solution, cloakroom system or reception area – JST’s plans include a turnkey approach that also takes into account the control room environment. Thanks to individual manufacturing, our team can even fulfil special customer requests. In terms of functionality, design and application options, we create holistically thought-out room concepts.
Genuine added value comes from high employee acceptance. Our control room planning creates the necessary basis for this. In addition to intuitive control technology, large-screen visualisation and ergonomic workplaces, your team also values comfort and the practical benefits of functional furniture. Our tip: Take your employees’ ideas and suggestions into account!
An exemplary implementation of a successful control room environment: At Heidelberg Materials in Ennigerloh, not only were control technology ,video wall and workstations made fit for the future. The control room environment was also upgraded, ensuring high employee acceptance of the overall installation. Here: 3D rendering of a cabinet solution with integrated pantry kitchen (left) and its subsequent implementation.
Strong arguments for holistic concepts with smart functional furniture in control rooms
Order: Everything in its place! Good organisation improves clarity.
Future-proof: JST furnishing solutions can be expanded in a modular fashion
Efficiency: Technology integration enables quick access to all systems
Security: Lockable personality cases for colleagues working shifts
Acoustics: Surfaces with sound absorbing effects available on request
Designed for shift work in control rooms: secure lockers
In modern control centers, personal belongings must be stored securely, in an orderly manner and accessible to employees at all times. Lockers with JST Personality Cases provide a tailor-made solution for this: they match the design of the control room and blend in harmoniously. Mobile drawer units are also ideal for maximum flexibility in shift operation. They can be mounted under Stratos X11® control room consoles and are easily exchanged at shift changeovers. This means teams benefit from greater security, clarity and efficiency. The control center remains perfectly organized even in 24/7 operation. Thanks to individual planning options, size, surface material and equipment can be customised and, if desired, adapted to the corporate design.

Sound-absorbing fronts: calm for more concentration
The architecture appears clean and technical – the perfect environment for a control room workplace. However, the acoustics in this atmosphere can be impaired by unpleasant sound reflections. Conversations, alarm signals or radio messages are more difficult to understand, and concentration is disrupted.
JST functional furniture with sound-absorbing surfaces effectively reduce the noise level. Whether cabinets or sideboards, large screen cladding or Stratos X11® control room consoles – sound-reducing fronts are available for every piece of furniture, significantly improving noise levels and speech intelligibility in the room. The result: a significantly quieter, more concentration-friendly working environment for shift teams in 24/7 operation.

Practical examples: Functional furniture in the control room offers more than just storage space
Our projects demonstrate how customised functional furniture not only complements the control room visually, but also optimises work processes. Whether sideboards with integrated technology, acoustically effective fronts or conference tables with direct KVM connection – JST stands for multifunctional solutions that seamlessly combine design and function. Here are a few examples from control room practice.
Integrated technology: the key to seamless alerts
With the JST AlarmLight, technology integration for functional furniture in the control room becomes the key to seamless alarm communication and efficient workflows. Sideboards and operator desks, large screen panels, ceiling sails and conference tables – the entire control room interior can be equipped with integrated LED systems. These are seamlessly connected to the KVM matrix of JST MultiStreaming® and MultiConsoling® and thus react automatically to defined alarm scenarios or faults.
The colour change – for example from blue to red – immediately informs all team members visually. The result are shorter response times, clear status displays and greater security in 24/7 operation.
Faster reactions and greater security

Smart meeting solution for conference and crisis case
The AllMedia conference table sets new standards for control stations and meeting rooms: timeless design, durable materials and intelligent technology combine to create a multifunctional center for situation meetings and crisis scenarios.
Thanks to direct integration into the KVM systems JST MultiStreaming® and MultiConsoling®, all relevant sources can be displayed on screens, monitor walls or projectors across rooms and locations. This allows teams to immediately access the desired data and applications from the control room infrastructure in an emergency. An all-rounder for the control room that is far ahead of classic conference table solutions – thanks to its aesthetic clarity and technical superiority.
