Refurbished Hind House to feature VoIP hardware

VoIP solutions will form part of the communications infrastructure of Hind House in Neath, West Glamorgan, following a £2 million refurbishment operation.

The project is being organised by Neath Properties and Flexi Offices UK, using funding from the Welsh Assembly government and the support of Neath Port Talbot Council.

More than 14,000 sq ft of office space will be available when the refurbishment is completed by the middle of next year and the building itself has been renamed Market Chambers.

Neil Humphries, director of Flexi Offices UK, said: "When we researched the local economy, we identified a requirement for a facility that can provide both start-ups and established businesses with a flexible range of offices with the option for them to take more space as they grow and develop."

In addition to the VoIP hardware, the new offices will offer Wi-Fi facilities and a heat recovery air conditioning system.

People who are deaf or hard of hearing could find they can use VoIP solutions more effectively using a new headset developed by Geemarc Telecom that works with hearing aids.
