Berlanga says the MC tables create
a bold design statement for any spa
Oakworks’ new Masters’ Collection range, which will consist of over 15 models by the end of 2017, has been designed to offer spa operators the ultimate in modern styling, with solutions and functionality that address each spa’s practical needs.
Each table is compatible with the Studio by Oakworks Spa – the company’s interactive visual online tool that gives clients complete flexibility with the products. The Studio tool enables clients to design and customise their own massage tables – choosing from thousands of combinations of styles, materials, finishes and features – and see their creations come to life on-screen.
The tool has five design spaces – Euro Chic, Highlands, Pacific Rim, Industrial and Contemporary – allowing customers to create a highly individual look for their treatment rooms.
The first Masters’ Collection model to be introduced is Icon – which can be customised in all five Studio design spaces. It’s described as a robust table that can be tailored to become a true design statement for a spa.
Second is Maia, which is offered in Contemporary, Euro Chic and Pacific Rim. Maia offers a combination of style and functionality, with beautiful undulating curves for a softer, more feminine look. Maia can also come with storage, so therapists are able to discreetly keep their supplies close at hand, using the sliding doors, which offer a convenient 24-inch opening.
Finally, there’s Talise, which is designed to be elegant yet masculine, with simple lines and robust curves (available in Contemporary, Euro Chic, Highlands and Pacific Rim).
In Studio, clients can add their own touches, such as a splash of colour or texture to highlight the corners, making the table model unique to them and their spa décor.
VP of international business development Dafne Berlanga says: “The Masters’ Collection is creating new possibilities for spa designers.
“Consultants were waiting for true statement tables that could bring life to the treatment room without compromising on comfort and technology. Oakworks did it with this new collection and now you can incorporate bold design with unusual luxurious finishes into your space.”
Options for heated tops and warming drawers will soon be available, and all tables are also available with Oakworks’ Adjustable Body Comfort (ABC) system, which allows therapists to customise a client’s comfort level through a powered system without disturbing them. A platform can be raised for head support or lowered for breast comfort, which works especially well for clients with breast sensitivity due to augmentation or mastectomy.
Oakworks offers a lifetime limited warranty and can also provide a quick turnaround of 2-3 weeks, even for customised models. All models are ETL Listed and CE Marked, giving assurance of the highest safety standards.
