How to choose a suitable meeting table based on the number of attendees?
When selecting a meeting table based on the number of attendees, it is necessary to consider the desktop space, conference room area, and functional requirements comprehensively. Here are specific suggestions:
1、 Determine desktop size by number of people
Small meetings (4-6 people)
Suggested size: 1.2-1.8 meters in length and 0.6-0.9 meters in width.
Applicable scenarios: Compact conference rooms or negotiation areas, with the option to choose round tables (within 1.2 meters in diameter) or foldable models to save space.
Medium sized conference (8-12 people)
Suggested dimensions: length 2.4-3.6 meters, width 1.0-1.2 meters.
Common configuration: A 2.4 × 1.2-meter rectangular table, paired with a soft pack conference chair to enhance comfort.
Large scale conference (12 or more people)
Suggested size: Length ≥ 4 meters, width 1.2-1.4 meters.
Example: The recommended length for a 25 person meeting table is 5.5-6 meters, with a width of 1.5-2 meters, calculated based on a space of 60-75 centimeters per person.
2、 Combining the layout of the conference room area
Space reservation: A 90-120 centimeter passage should be left around the meeting table for easy access and chair movement.
Shape selection:
A rectangular table is suitable for formal meetings and facilitates seat allocation.
Round table/oval table promotes equal communication and is suitable for interactive scenes with 10-20 people.
A U-shaped table is suitable for training or public speaking, enhancing interactivity.
3、 Other key factors
Material and Function:
If the budget is sufficient, you can choose solid wood or solid wood veneer. If the budget is limited, consider using a density board and steel frame structure.
Priority should be given to styles with hidden power sockets and Ethernet cable boxes to avoid messy wires.
Safety and Maintenance:
The corners of the table need to be rounded, and the solid wood tabletop needs to be maintained quarterly to prevent cracking.
The style with power socket must comply with the national 3C certification standard.
