For Silen, 2024 was the year our quiet confidence roared across the globe.

At Silen, we’ve always believed in the power of quiet. But 2024 was the year our quiet confidence roared across the globe. From awesome showrooms to cutting-edge product launches, and a bagful of awards, we’ve set new benchmarks. 

Let’s take a look at the milestones we’ve celebrated, and the trail we’re blazing for 2025.

1. Expanding Horizons: New Permanent Showrooms in Chicago and London


Silen Chicago Showroom
This year, we made a bold statement in THE MART, Chicago. Spanning over 200 square meters, our showroom is a dynamic hub showcasing Silen’s transformative approach to privacy and teamwork. Whether you’re exploring the Silen Space New Generation and Chatbox New Generation office pods, or Bridges office room dividers, this space empowers creators, collaborators, and businesses alike.

Silen UK Showroom
In London’s Clerkenwell design hub, our UK showroom has become a vibrant meeting point for innovative thinkers. Highlighting our premium Space privacy pods, versatile Chatbox solutions, and collaborative Bridges range, this space demonstrates how we’re shaping workplaces to foster productivity and teamwork.

2. A Bold New Identity

Silen unveiled a refreshed brand identity in 2024, reflecting our commitment to helping businesses thrive. Our sleek new website combines intuitive navigation with engaging content, ensuring decision-making is faster and easier for everyone.

At the Stockholm Furniture Fair, we launched a stunning new exhibition concept in collaboration with Kai Stania — a designer whose creations blend functionality and elegance. His design philosophy brought new energy to our vision for dynamic, connected workplaces.

  • Silen Bridges Mobile: A fresh addition to the Bridges range, this mobile meeting spot moves effortlessly to create acoustically optimized spaces, enhancing both collaboration and focus.

  • Chatbox Solo: A solo workstation built for affordability without sacrificing quality, providing professionals their own private workspace for hours, days, or even weeks of focused work.

  • Chatbox Duo Plus: Perfect for small teams, this versatile pod accommodates up to four people, promoting creativity and connection.

  • Silen Dynamics: Modular build and snap-magnet skins and trims let you redesign your pods with ease, extending their lifespan to over 20 years while embracing sustainability.

  • Sand Interior Skin: Bring warmth and inspiration to office paces with this calming, natural hue. It’s more than a color; it’s an experience that lifts your spirit, energizes your work, and inspires creativity.

  • Silen Mobility Kit: Adaptability at its best—this innovation now enables all Silen pods, including Chatbox and Hybrid models, to move with your evolving workspace needs, bringing the same flexibility previously exclusive to the Premium Space series.

5. Innovations to Watch in 2025

  • Silen Zen: Turn your pods into personal reset spaces. With features like smart glass, ambient lighting, and immersive soundscapes, the Silen Zen mode is designed for ultimate recharge.

  • Silen Control Panel: The next level of user control. Adjust lighting, ventilation, and more to create a personalized, productive environment. All through an intuitive, user-friendly interface that makes customizing your Silen pods as easy as pushing a button. 

6. The Rise of Silen Rent: Flexible Solutions for a Changing World

The Silen Rent model hit new heights this year, providing businesses with flexible, on-demand privacy solutions. Aligned with ESG principles, this rental approach extends product lifecycles and reduces waste. As demand grows globally, we’re gearing up to expand this service beyond Europe in 2025.

7. A Global Stage: New Markets, New Warehouse

From New Zealand to Argentina, Peru to Oman, Silen expanded into several new markets in 2024. Our resellers now offer local showrooms where you can experience our products first-hand. Plus, our new warehouse in Veneto, Italy, has enhanced logistics, ensuring even faster service for our growing customer base.

8. Sustainability at the Core: Silen Zero

Our strong launch of the Silen Zero program is a comprehensive roadmap to achieving net-zero emissions. From renewable energy to sustainable materials and modular designs, we’re setting a new industry standard.

In 2024, we made bold moves in sustainability, with many impactful actions paving the way. Among the highlights:

  • Transitioning to 100% renewable energy for our factory, sourced from solar, wind, and hydroelectric power — because the future can’t wait.

  • Improving the product design with a 20+ year lifespan to minimize waste and maximize durability.

  • Elevating transparency in sustainability reporting — no greenwashing, just green winning. 

The message from boutique offices to Fortune 500 giants is unmistakable: the future of workspaces can be summed up in three words — Health, Focus, and Sustainability.
