SmartPod Interior Options

SmartPod’s manufacturing process gives customers unrivalled freedom to personalise every square inch. Whether you need a single-bay kiosk or a multi-room complex, the internal specification is built from a generous menu of finishes, fixtures and technology that slot together without messy site work. When you order a SmartPod you are not simply buying a box, you are commissioning a blank canvas that can be furnished, finished and fine-tuned to match the way you teach, trade, train or work. Every panel, power point and pane of glass is produced in-house and then configured around your brief, so education, retail, leisure, business and welfare users all receive purpose-built interiors rather than adapted afterthoughts.

Core Interior Elements: the Building Blocks

Walls

Choose smooth MDF boards ready for paint, wallpaper or graphics, or switch to hygienic wall linings that create a seamless, wipe-clean surface for food, medical or animal-care rooms—SmartPod manufactures each option in-house for consistent quality.

Flooring

Carpet tiles provide warmth and acoustic comfort, while luxury vinyl tile (LVT) offers a water-resistant, scratch-proof surface ideal for kitchens or high-traffic retail areas; SmartPod cuts and fits both in the factory to guarantee a perfect edge.

Glazing & Trims

Full-height picture windows, discreet clerestories or privacy slots can all be supplied in bespoke RAL colours, and SmartPod factory-installs matching aluminium trims and double-glazed units that boost thermal performance whilst delivering a cohesive finish inside and out.

Ceilings & Lighting

A grid ceiling hides HVAC runs and calms acoustics in classrooms or offices, while track lighting lets retailers spotlight fresh collections; SmartPod pre-wires LED fittings and the consumer unit so everything powers up the moment you connect.

Climate Control

High-performance insulation is baked into every structural panel, but designers can add air-conditioning, boosted ventilation or infrared heaters where precise temperature or humidity control matters—perfect for server rooms, grooming suites or high-energy fitness studios

Education: Libraries, Classrooms & Breakout Spaces

SmartPod’s education range is shaped around pedagogy, not just square metres. Library Pods integrate built-in bookcases, soft carpet tiles for hushed footsteps and suspended ceilings with low-glare LEDs that invite sustained reading.

Classroom Pods come in Pure, Plus and Premium trims: Pure delivers UPVC glazing, carpet, electric heating and plentiful plug points; Plus adds colour-coordinated façade panels, blinds and air-conditioning for year-round comfort; Premium introduces aluminium windows, integral blinds, a cloud-lit ceiling and luxury carpet tiles that turn breakout rooms into show-piece learning hubs.

Throughout the range, movable desks and writable walls mean a pod can morph from lecture space to project zone in minutes—ideal for activity-based curricula.

Commercial Modular Buildings

Retail: Shops, Cafés & Pop-up Counters

Retailers prize speed to market—and the ability to refit when trends change. A Shop Pod therefore arrives as an open-plan shell with all service routes pre-installed, ready for refrigeration, counters or treatment stations. Water and waste lines can be plumbed for barista sinks, ice-cream freezers or barber washbasins, while interior and exterior finishes are colour-matched to brand guidelines.

Café Pods push the concept further: the 3 × 3 m takeaway focuses on rapid service flow, the 4 × 5 m dine-in model gains fixed seating and washroom links, and the 8 × 4 m drive-through introduces twin service windows, digital menu boards and a fully integrated commissary.

Because every pod is delivered wired and plumbed, operators can be trading within weeks, not months.

Smartpod Golf Pod

Leisure: Gyms, Golf Simulators & Retreat Pods

High-impact activity demands high-spec interiors. Gym Pods leave the factory with reinforced, non-slip flooring rated for free-weights, fresh-air vents and optional mirrored walls, AV screens or Bluetooth sound systems.

Golf Pods require different geometry: extra ceiling height for a full swing path, pre-wiring for launch-monitor tech and acoustic wall linings to deaden impact noise, creating an all-weather simulator bay.

Retreat Pods—popular for overnight accommodation or wellness studios—add en-suite bathrooms, blackout blinds and upgraded thermal insulation so guests enjoy hotel-level comfort in remote settings.

Dog Grooming Studio

Business: Offices, Grooming Salons & Other Uses

Whether scaling a start-up or decentralising an established workforce, the Office Pod layout can incorporate receptions, meeting rooms or hot-desk banks, complete with Cat-6 cabling, kitchenettes and even shower rooms.

Service-intensive ventures are equally well-served: a Pet Grooming Pod ships with hygienic walling, anti-slip floors, clean-water and waste outlets, LED task lighting and optional 360-degree hydraulic tables that minimise heavy lifting.

Beyond these headline examples, the “Other Uses” category has produced everything from micro-breweries to recording studios, proving there is virtually no limit to how a SmartPod can be internally finished.

Changing Places Pod

WCs & Changing Places

A washroom may be compact, but it carries big compliance responsibilities. Washroom Pods employ 100 mm waterproof insulated panels, non-slip safety flooring, suspended ceilings and LED luminaires, with layouts tailored to any mix of toilets, showers or changing cubicles.

Where enhanced accessibility is mandatory, a Changing Places Pod expands the footprint to 12 m² and integrates a ceiling-mounted hoist, height-adjustable bench, privacy screen and compliant turning circle, meeting all current British Standards in a stand-alone unit that can be craned into place with minimal disruption.

SmartPod’s interior-first philosophy turns the usual modular narrative on its head. Instead of beginning with the shell and squeezing functions in afterwards, every project starts with a conversation about how people will actually use the space—reading, retailing, lifting weights, grooming pets, or delivering dignified personal care. From there the specification grows organically. Core ingredients such as pre-finished wall panels, factory-installed floor coverings, double-glazed apertures, discreet service voids, and pre-wired lighting give each pod a robust, future-proof backbone. High-spec insulation and optional air-conditioning then lock in year-round comfort and energy efficiency.

Around that backbone the sector-specific layers take shape. In the education range, silence-soft carpets, low-glare LEDs and writable walls encourage inquiry and collaboration, while built-in bookcases turn a single module into a micro-library. Retail operators pivot the same chassis towards revenue: plumbing for barista sinks, track lighting for product highlights, and branded façades that speak the language of passing footfall. Leisure users exploit SmartPod’s spatial freedom to create reinforced gym floors, full-swing golf simulator bays and boutique overnight suites complete with en-suite bathrooms and blackout blinds—all delivered as plug-and-play modules that earn from day one.

Commercial clients appreciate the ease with which office pods accommodate data cabling, acoustic meeting rooms and kitchenette breakouts, but the same engineering serves more niche enterprises too. Grooming salons, micro-breweries or podcast studios all benefit from hygienic walling, specialist ventilation and carefully mapped electrical runs that would be costly to retrofit on site. Even compliance-heavy settings are covered. Stand-alone washrooms arrive lined with waterproof panels and safety flooring, while Changing Places units extend the footprint to incorporate hoists, adjustable benches and turning circles that exceed current British Standards.

Across these varied applications, three constants remain: the precision of off-site manufacture, the brevity of on-site disruption, and the freedom to refresh finishes or layouts as needs evolve. By treating the interior as the engine rather than the afterthought, SmartPod ensures that every square metre works harder, lasts longer and costs less to maintain. When your organisation is ready to expand, refocus or simply elevate its surroundings, a tailored SmartPod offers a swifter, smarter and thoroughly fit-for-purpose path from concept to first day of use.
