AVOLT

[USP]Avolt is the winner of the Red Dot Design Award 2019 and transforms the power strip into a deliberate design object for the modern workplace[END USP]

The history of Avolt: from 2018 to now

Avolt was founded in 2018 in Stockholm, Sweden, with one conviction as its starting point: everyday electronics don't have to be ugly or hidden. Where most power strips are tucked away behind furniture, the founders wondered why such a functional object couldn't also be beautiful.

Avolt's philosophy is rooted in the basic geometric shapes from Bruno Munari's famous trilogy "Square Circle Triangle". The first product, the Square 1, is literally a tribute to the basic square shape: compact, symmetrical, and timeless. In 2019, the Square 1 won the Red Dot Design Award and the Svenska Design Priset, recognition from both the international and Swedish design worlds.

Following the success of the Square 1, Avolt expanded the line with the Square 2: a cord-free version that plugs directly into the wall. This allows the power strip to be even more seamlessly integrated into the space. Both models are available in a range of carefully selected colours, from the neutral Nomad Sand to the striking Shark Blue, making them suitable for any type of interior.

Today, Avolt is a supplier to homeware stores, office furnishers, and architects worldwide. The products can be found in design and workplace stores across Europe, including Ergowerken.

What does an Avolt power strip do for your workplace and work environment?

A tidy, well-organised workplace contributes to focus and less distraction during work. Avolt products play a concrete role in this: they bring power and charging options exactly where you need them, without extra cable clutter.

The Square 1 features a magnetic base that allows you to attach the block to a metal surface or the included iron plate. This keeps the power strip stable on your desk or neatly hanging underneath a sit-stand desk, out of sight but always within reach. The built-in USB-C ports (up to 30W) eliminate the need for separate chargers for phones or tablets, directly reducing the number of cables on your desk.

The Square 2 is designed for those who want to keep their desk as clear as possible. By plugging the power strip directly into the wall socket, the cable completely disappears from view. In combination with a cable management solution or a sit-stand desk, you create a workplace that is both ergonomic and visually pleasing.

Why Ergowerken chooses Avolt

We only add brands to our assortment if we are convinced of the quality and functionality of the products. Avolt fits this picture because the Square line solves a concrete problem in the workplace – too many cables and too few charging points in the right place – and does so in a way that visually enhances the workplace instead of burdening it.

The Red Dot Award and the Svenska Design Priset are external confirmations of a quality that is also noticeable in practice: solid finish, child-safe socket covers as standard, and a magnetic mounting system that really works.
