About

Work With Island est née en 2018 d’un constat simple : le bureau n’est plus adapté aux besoins actuels. Il est compliqué de s’isoler pour faire une visioconférence ou trouver une salle de réunion.

Notre mission est d’apporter plus de sérénité à l’environnement de travail avec notre gamme de cabines modulaires et insonorisées.

Nous sommes transparents dans la conception de nos produits : conçus par notre équipe d’ingénieurs basée à Paris et fabriqués en France à partir de matériaux écoresponsables. Nous le sommes également dans la manière de les distribuer, en proposant à nos clients une expérience d’achat inédite pour ce type de produit.

Accompagnée par des investisseurs de premier plan, François Blum cofondateur de LeBonCoin, Bertrand Uzeel cofondateur de Welcome To The Jungle, Eric Larcheveque cofondateur de Ledger ou encore Jeremy Charoy cofondateur de Lalalab, nous connaissons chaque année une croissance de plus de 300% et sommes en pleine phase d'ouverture sur de nouveaux marchés européens.

Notre engagement :

🇫🇷 Fabrication Made in France

♻️ Des matériaux écoresponsables

💸 Des produits vendus au prix juste
