100 INTERIORS; SAFETY & SECURITY
You can count on us K
nowing the true occupancy and the flow of people in and out of a store, office or building is now more
important than ever. As the figures for Covid remain high and the
need for Lockdowns and Tier restrictions continue to be part of everyday life, government advice demands that retailers limit the numbers in store by “calculating the maximum number of customers that can reasonably follow social distancing guidelines.” Unsurprisingly this has led to queues
forming outside many shops and so the need for queue management. So far this has meant a member of staff, sometimes two, standing at the door counting people in and then counting them out again - a time-consuming task which is liable to errors. And not the best use of staff that could be more profitably engaged elsewhere and not ideal for the poor staff member left standing in the cold! A solution that provides queue management
automatically can save money, make better use of staff and meet government requirements is what’s required. GEZE, a world leader in door and window
control technology, has introduced GEZE Counter, a customer flow control solution specifically addresses these challenges. The two systems, GEZE Counter Plus
and GEZE Counter Connect integrate with automatic doors to provide controlled admission by a simple but effective traffic light system and meets the need for social distancing. GEZE Counter systems provide analytics by
hour, day or week to give management greater control and ensure the health and safety of employees and customers. The systems employ a simple traffic light arrangement – wait while the light is red and the doors are de-activated, and enter when the light is green. There are two versions available, meaning there is a system for every building – an internet or cloud based system for full analysis, control and management either locally or at head office, or a local network system to a designated PC or smart phone to view, control or manage analytics in store. Customer flow control and successful
store layout for maximising sales have always played an important role for retailers.
UNILIN Panels steps outside the lines
Giving a broad playing field to fuel creativity, MOODS is a series of collaborative projects between UNILIN Panels and design studios. In the first of the series, Ghent-based Studio Woot Woot, delivers COLOURFUL CREATIVITY, a palette in-tune with the energy and dynamism of young start-ups, content agencies and tech- driven businesses. “Colour has a profound impact on the atmosphere of a space,” Karina Soors, Studio Woot Woot explains. “Bright, bold colours like yellow, orange and purple are known to stimulate creative thinking. Meanwhile, strong pop colours like red powder charge brainstorms and lead to out-of-the-box thinking. Blue, in contrast, soothes and calms – ideal for a breakfast nook.” UNILIN Evola provides the surface finishes to express this bold approach to energising spaces. From sunshine and goldfish orange to candy red, purple jam, and persian blue; these bright and bold colours can bring COLOURFUL CREATIVITY to a single wall or on every surface in mood lifting contrasts that bring joy and stimulate creative processes. COLOURFUL CREATIVITY defines 21 colours in the UNILIN Evola collection.

The coronavirus pandemic has brought these considerations increasingly into focus because customer flow control involves analysing the number of customers and the routes they take, and directing and controlling these correspondingly. But now, the main task of flow control
systems is to ensure that only the correct number of persons can enter a building or rooms under control and safely. This allows each customer to better socially distance themselves, they feel safer and retailers comply with government guidelines. Escape routes are unaffected. Customers easily identify that the retailer or site management have thought seriously about the issue and acted accordingly, with a visible solution, generally giving a much more pleasant experience once indoors.
