Simplicity is the ultimate form of sophisitication

The fast-changing world of Retail requires a strategic mix of innovation and functionality to stay ahead of the competition. Design and technology form a dynamic duo that creates solutions that not only captivate consumers but also optimise operational efficiency. This not only improves the visual appeal of retail spaces but also responds to applying new technological needs required by the modern retail landscape.

With sustainable but also exciting and innovative solutions, our designers always know how to create a concept that suits your formula. The customised designs with ergonomics and functionality as valuable starting points are not only practical but also modern and contemporary. Our design department, which won the prestigious Red Dot Design award in 2018 and 2023, ensures that the products have a contemporary and modern look that seamlessly matches your formula. Subsequently, the short lines within the organisation ensure that the set of requirements can be applied in a practical manner during the production and installation of our checkout, self-service and kiosk solutions. Our project management office works out every detail according to your requirements, and this enables Pan Oston to offer solutions for different markets.

Our design principles

To ensure that our solutions seamlessly match the customer's needs within a Retail environment, we work with a few design principles so that we do not lose sight of our focus.

Customer-Centric Design

Effective retail solutions start with understanding customer needs and preferences. A well-designed solution with intuitive layout, aesthetically pleasing design and a comfortable workspace can significantly influence customer behaviour. In doing so, it is also important for ergnomy, as ease of use plays a crucial factor when it comes to adoption of new technologies. It's not just about the functional process; it's about creating seamless experiences that encourage exploration and engagement.

Enhance Brand Identity

Design is the visual language that communicates a brand's identity. With thoughtful design, retailers can establish a strong and recognisable brand. That is why all our standard furniture is designed to allow a high degree of customisation. If this is not sufficient for a retail formula or new concept, we will help with a custom-made piece of furniture designed entirely according to the customer's wishes.

Flexible Front-End

By combining design and engineering, retailers can create adaptive shop formats.

Technological integration

Engineering in retail solutions takes the customer experience to the next level by integrating modern technologies. From interactive displays to innovative point-of-sale systems, engineering solutions streamline operations and improve customer interaction. Flexible layouts can be implemented quickly to respond to changing market dynamics. This does not stop at branding, as service-ability and the exchange of front-end components also influence the speed with which a Retailer can convert a concept.

Sustainable Solutions

In an era when sustainability is a key focus, the collaboration between design and engineering makes it possible to create eco-friendly retail solutions. From saving on production, sourcing materials and exchanging front-end components. With every new project, our design department looks at practical ways to apply sustainability.
