AgilePOD Raise&Relocate™
Pod mobility without compromising accessibility.
AgilePOD Raise&Relocate™ is the first acoustic pod mobility system designed to solve a problem the office furniture sector has lived with for years: mobility versus accessibility.
Traditionally, pods on castors are mobile but permanently elevated — excluding many users — while static pods are accessible but immovable without contractors and disruption. Raise&Relocate™ gives you the best of both worlds: a powered system that raises the pod at the push of a button, relocates it effortlessly across your space, then lowers it back into a fully stable, Equality Act–compliant position.
Why this matters
For years organisations have had to choose between:
Mobility — pods on castors can be pushed around but are permanently raised and therefore not accessible.
Accessibility — static, floor-level pods are compliant but immovable without facilities teams, contractors or downtime.
Raise&Relocate™ changes that equation.
It’s pod mobility that respects accessibility, letting you reposition pods quickly without disrupting users, workflows, or acoustic performance.
How it works
Powered, effortless relocation
Raise: Integrated electric actuators lift the pod from floor level.
Roll: Concealed mobility system glides smoothly across varied floors.
Lower: Pod returns to floor level, stable and fully accessible.
No ramps, no permanent wheels, no compromise.
This is mobility engineered the right way — concealed, controlled, reliable.

Built for real spaces and real teams
Raise&Relocate™ isn’t a gimmick — it’s designed with facilities managers, workplace designers, and inclusive organisations in mind:
Quick reconfiguration without contractors
Minimal disruption to users or schedules
Retains acoustic integrity and door alignment after moves
Suitable for hybrid working environments where space needs to evolve
Designed to integrate into your wider AgilePOD ecosystem
Accessibility at the core
At AgileAcoustics we’ve always designed pods that are fully accessible — no raised floors, just level access for everyone. Raise&Relocate™ builds on that principle. Our system ensures that:
All users — including wheelchair users — can access pods once lowered
Accessibility is never an afterthought
Pods stay compliant without extra adaptations
Patent-backed innovation
We’ve taken a bold step in mobility-led inclusive design — and filed a patent for Raise&Relocate™ (Patent application #2520326.6).
This innovation isn’t just about movement:
It’s about rethinking what an acoustic pod can be in a 21st-century workspace.
