Case Systems recently announced the launch of SALTO, a line of classroom fixtures and installations for K–12 learning spaces like STEM labs, art rooms, and makerspaces, according to a news release. The product line is designed to provide teachers with flexibility and adaptability, enabling them to shift between collaborative and individual learning environments.

The line includes mobile storage cabinets, 3D printer carts, maker tables, and wall-mount panel systems. Unique design features include recessed pegboards and side panels for storage that are also dash-patterned to offer compatibility with a variety of hooks. Movable furniture features sinusoidal split wheels to allow easy moving across carpet and concrete. Finally, the integration of fixed and mobile storage integration creates a transformable but clutter-free learning environment.

"Our goal is to create a space that transitions effortlessly to meet the needs of every student and teacher. SALTO makes that vision a reality,” said Kelly Wehner, Case Systems President. “SALTO is an education-first brand that flips the script on traditional classrooms, delivering multi-purpose furniture and storage solutions that put the fun in functional. We designed SALTO based on the real needs of teachers and students, creating classrooms that support more learning, fewer limits, and better experiences for everyone.”

According to the news release, key benefits of the product line include easy adaptability for project-based learning, providing the potential for on-the-fly layout changes, and increased creativity in maker spaces by keeping all tools and materials within close reach.
