This is not a drill—NeoCon is BACK!
As you can probably tell, we’re pretty excited about it. After two long years, we’re taking our show on the road to Chicago for the first in-person NeoCon since 2019. With such a long time between shows, there’s a lot to talk about and share with you.
This year’s event runs Oct. 4-6 at theMART, or Merchandise Mart, in the heart of downtown.
We’ll back up ever so slightly for a quick refresher on NeoCon: this is the commercial design industry’s signature event, and it’s been going strong since 1969. One trip to the show and you’ll see thousands of products in the categories of furniture, flooring, technology and more.
Featured Product: Workwall
1. The forefront of design, i.e. the latest and greatest from the best in the business.
2. Connecting the design community with people and businesses from healthcare, workplace, public sector (government), retail and more.
3. Inspiration and knowledge sharing, with supplemental seminars and educational sessions throughout the months leading up to NeoCon.
We can’t wait to tell you more about what we have planned—without giving away too many secrets, of course—and get you ready for this year’s show.
Featured Products: Cliq® and Empower®
Well, quite a bit.
Work continues to evolve and, as a result, so too does the need to create products that support a dynamic, flexible workforce. With hybrid work on the rise, our latest innovations are focused on providing quality solutions whether employees are at home or in the office.
Here’s a preview of what we’ve been working on, and what’s to come:
Featured Product: Workwall
Workwall was introduced this summer, and it’s one of our most exciting products.
When you think about better work, organization, planning and meeting...what do you think of? Some may say filing cabinets, storage units or conference rooms, but we had another idea: combining the best of all elements into one customizable tack zone solution.
Workwall takes functionality to the next level. It’s a cohesively engineered tile system that mixes and matches metal, fabric, laminate and glass materials with smart tools and accessories that celebrate who you are and how you work.
Featured Product: Ignition® 2.0 with Colorwav™
Task chairs are focal points of a modern workplace, especially those that can be tailored to your brand’s identity or aesthetic.
A Ignition® 2.0 was relaunched in 2021 with Colorwav™, giving customers the ability to create a chair that supports all types of work, is supportive throughout the day and adds a pop of color to the office.
Featured Product Astir™
Organizers of NeoCon are implementing several measures to safely welcome guests back to the event, and to keep everyone safe throughout the week.
theMART is equipped with air filtration and circulation technology that will bring fresh air into the building multiple times each day. Hand sanitizer stations will be in place throughout the space, and cleaning crews will provide frequent disinfection and cleaning of high touch surfaces, as well as electro-static spraying of elevators and other public spaces.
Other measures, such as low-contact registration, modified capacity in the 7th floor Exhibit Hall and ample outdoor space, will be in place as well.
We couldn’t be more excited to get back to Chicago for this can’t-miss event. Look for further updates on HON’s social media platforms and hon.com/neocon in the near future.
