Why DesQ Is a Game Changer for Hybrid Work


In the hybrid office era, it’s not enough to have flexible seating—it’s time for health-conscious, smart solutions. DesQ by SOS stands out with its unique focus on personalized airflow and modular adaptability—because comfort and health should go hand-in-hand with flexibility.

Personalized Ventilation for Each User

DesQ isn’t just a desk—it’s the India’s first personal ventilation-enabled workstation. Each user gets a dedicated pocket of airflow to maintain comfort, reduce heat stress, and prevent airborne contamination—without cooling the entire office indiscriminately. The patented design is specially developed by engineers and designers with the user comfort in mind.

Stratified Airflow System = Cleaner Work Zones


Thanks to its stratified airflow architecture, DesQ delivers clean air directly to each user—minimal mixing with pollutants, maximum purity. The result: improved indoor air quality and reduced infection risk.

Easy Integration with HVAC Systems


DesQ works seamlessly with two HVAC setups:

  • Overhead Air Distribution (OHAD)
  • Underfloor Air Distribution (UFAD)
    This flexibility enables DesQ to be installed in varied office layouts while ensuring its ventilation features remain effective.

🌍 Eco-Friendly & Energy-Efficient

  • IGBC GreenPro certified
  • ANSI/BIFMA 5.5 compliant
  • WELL Building Standard ready
  • Delivers 20.7% reduction in HVAC energy usage, and 9.2% total energy savings.


These credentials make DesQ a sustainable solution built for longevity, recyclability, and performance.

🛠️ Modular Design That Grows with You


Just like previous SOS products, DesQ is 100% modular. Mix and match clusters, rows, or pods to suit different teams. Plus, it supports clean cable management and adaptable aesthetics—everything you need to build collaborative or focused zones.

🤝 Where DesQ Fits Best

  • Hybrid open offices — providing non-assigned yet tech-smart workstations
  • Co‑working hubs — offering professional air control to itinerant users
  • Activity-based layouts — arranging clusters per project needs
  • Health-conscious workplaces — emphasizing user well-being and clean air
