Client

Lift AG

Starting Point

Family Business on a Growth Trajectory

Lift AG is a family-run company with about 200 employees, most of them at its headquarters in Regensdorf, Zurich.


After years of having departments in separate rooms, leadership decided to open the floorplan and bring teams closer together.


The goal: a bright, welcoming workplace that sparks internal communication and streamlines day-to-day operations.

Challenges

Old Walls and an Ambitious Schedule

  • Renovating a legacy building with unknown construction materials

  • Uniting several teams in one shared space on a tight timeline

  • Sourcing ergonomic furniture that harmonizes with the existing design

  • Managing mid-market budget constraints while still insisting on quality

Solution

Consulting and Procurement with Schäfer Shop

  1. In-house concept phase: Lift AG drafted several layout options and mapped functional zones.

  2. Furniture selection at Schäfer Shop: The familiar catalog and previous positive results sealed the decision.

  3. Rapid coordination: Workplace specialist Oliver Egli answered detailed questions on models, delivery dates and terms promptly.

  4. Delivery «without assembly»: The project team handled the setup in-house, trimming contractor coordination and costs.

Result

Open Spaces and Satisfied Teams

All office furniture arrived on schedule, and the in-house crew handled assembly without a hitch. The new open floor feels brighter and more welcoming. Communication moves faster, since no doors or walls get in the way.


Team members who were initially hesitant now value the more open work atmosphere.

Customer Testimonial
