Calma For U is a meticulously engineered piece of workplace equipment that sets a new standard, particularly for video conferencing and work performance.

Designed to optimize digital communication, Calma For U pods feature an integrated media wall equipped with broadcast-quality face lighting. The light source placement, precise illumination, and fan levels, combined with an adjustable ergonomic design, create the ideal circumstances for controlled isolation in modern workplaces.

Calma holds ISO 23351-1 Class A soundproofing certification and achieves an excellent reverberation time of 0.30 seconds. With an innovative approach, Calma uses Basotect G+ layering within its structure, which isolates both low and high-frequency sounds, creating exceptional voice clarity and acoustics.

100% Healthy: Calma products use HDF powder coating technology to create uniform, thermoset surfaces that are antibacterial and easy to clean, without releasing harmful chemicals inside the pod. With zero VOC emissions, Calma is SCS Indoor Air Quality Certified, ensuring exceptional indoor air quality.

Calma is also listed in the internationally recognized Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) system, positioning it among the few acoustic pods in the industry to meet such high standards. Its advanced ventilation system maintains fresh air circulation, exchanging air 106 times per hour and keeping CO₂ levels below 1000 ppm.

The pod’s design integrates functional features with perfect aesthetics for perception. Calma For U offers a retractable, built-in desk and media wall to ensure user comfort and adaptability. The single-unit, 50% recycled PET felt ceiling not only reduces waste but also enhances acoustic performance and simplifies installation. The form of the pod, up to its occupancy light detail, is carefully designed to complement its soft corners and tactile surfaces. With castors for mobility, Calma can easily adapt to changing workspace needs.

As a result of the perfect combination of design and engineering, Calma For U is considered one of the best video conference pods in the industry. On display at Nurus’ Chicago showroom at The Mart since NeoCon 2024, Calma For U has garnered significant attention, solidifying its reputation as a premium solution for modern workplaces. Combining functionality, innovation, and award-winning design, including the German Design Award 2025, Calma For U is engineered to elevate work environments and provide an unparalleled video conferencing experience.
