– About

Born in the UK with northern practicality at heart, our products have been solving workspace chaos since 2001.

– The Hotbox way

Experts in the
world of workplace

Born in the UK with a distinctly northern practicality, we’ve evolved from a single product offering to an international brand that is trusted by organisations across 40+ countries.

Original caddy creators

Yes, that’s right. It was us. We were first to the party when it comes to caddies. When we saw people being asked to drag their pedestals around the office back in 2000 we thought enough was enough. We could do better. And we did.

Sustainability focused

We’ve worked hard over the years to improve what our products are made with. Today, we’re proud to say that our entire portfolio is made from post-consumer recycled materials and all of our products can be fully recycled.

Family run business

The saying should go, “don’t work with kids, animals, and your family” 😅 What can we say. It works for us. We are a small yet mighty team that is passionate about making flexible work comfortable, one Hotbox at a time.

Consultative approach

We like to get stuck in. Whether looking for solutions for a client or searching for products to help your own team with agile working. Yes, we’re that kind of team that likes to ask questions so that you buy the right product, not just any.

A passion to make hybrid working easy

Jamie started Hotbox in 2001 with a simple concept.

To help call centre workers personalise their shared workspaces and make their desks feel like exactly that - theirs.

And now?

We’ve developed a family of products that help people work efficiently and ergonomically, wherever they choose to be.

In the office, a café, the train, client offices, or at home.

– Hotbox today

Innovative solutions for the changing workspace

From caddies that keep everything organised and ergonomic to work bags that transform when you land at your workspace.

We work with sales and interiors teams of commercial furniture resellers and also directly with facilities managers, office managers, and heads of workplace.

Basically, all the people who design and build the workspaces of today.

Ready to transform your workplace?

We help businesses make agile and hybrid working comfortable with desk caddies and hybrid work bags. People should be able to work their way, anywhere.

– Step 1

Identify the
work styles

Whether working on behalf of a client or for your own team, we help you identify the different work styles in the business.

All so we can find the perfect range of Hotbox products for that team. We don’t do one size fits all here.

Product samples
and testing

Then, if you want to, you can get your hands on some samples to try with your team or client.

Perfect when you aren’t sure exactly which of our products will be the right fit.
