Choosing between the two Martex panels
Start with the role the panel needs to play in your reception area. The Martex Straight Reception Desk Panel is the 84 cm-wide option and is the one identified as suitable for a cable tray. Choose it when that width suits your plan and cable management is relevant. The tray itself is not included, so account for it separately if you need one.
The Martex Straight Reception Desk Side Panel is 90 cm wide and is listed as 110 cm high, with a depth of 4 cm. Its dimensions may suit a different position or footprint in your layout. The product information identifies it as a side panel, but does not specify a connection method or confirm compatibility with other desks. If you are combining it with existing furniture, check the fit and intended arrangement before ordering.
Plan around the room and furniture
Measure the available reception area and mark the panel’s width and depth on a floor plan or with temporary guides. Consider circulation space for visitors and staff, as well as nearby doors, seating and work surfaces. Use the listed dimensions for the particular model you are considering; do not assume the two panels share the same height, since the 110 cm height is specified for the side panel.
The collection is listed as not linkable. That makes it especially important to plan placement rather than assume the panels can be joined together or attached to another desk in a particular way. For a coordinated setup, check the proposed layout and any required furniture connections with your supplier.
Finish, colors and cable planning
Both models have a lacquered finish. Listed color options across the family include neutral shades such as beige, black, brown, grey and white, as well as blue, green, gold and pink; red also appears in the collection color attributes. Not every color is necessarily available for each model, so verify the choices shown for the individual item before settling your scheme.
If cable routing matters, distinguish between being suitable for a cable tray and including one: the straight panel is compatible with a tray, but no tray is included. The collection facts list a two-year warranty. Check the product details for the model you select, along with any requirements for fitting or coordinating it with other reception furniture.
What to check before selecting
- Confirm the model name and its stated width, depth and, where specified, height.
- Check color availability for that exact panel rather than relying on the collection-wide color list.
- Decide whether you need cable-tray compatibility and source a tray separately if required.
- Review how the panel will be positioned, since the collection is not listed as linkable.
Once you have confirmed the layout and finish, Myntwork offers these Martex products on a monthly lease. Compare the individual model details to make sure the panel you choose fits your reception plan.
