Hospitality was my dream. Waitering was the in-between.
Our story
What started as a stint in the room service department of the Hilton Melbourne in the 80’s, turned into a design juggernaut of amazing proportions. And it all centered around the operating equipment - the never-ending bank of broken product lined up back of house. Quite simply labelled ‘out of order’. I was inquisitive enough to ask why. I was shocked to hear it’s as good as it gets. They quietly smiled when I said I can do better. Gathering the smartest engineers and the most curious manufacturers, operation ‘room service overhaul’ gathered momentum. Within 6 months I presented draft 1 of, what is today, the most celebrated In-Room Dining system in the world. And that was the beginning of my interaction with expert hoteliers, forward-thinking venue operators and master-chefs of the world. When Gerd craved something new in live cooking he looked to us. When Massimo looked to push the boundaries of catering without restrictions he shared with us. When Knud was ready to explore his new buffet ideas he found us. When Georgio conceptualized his sophisticated butler service he approached us. When Joe wanted to break new ground in meeting styles he relied on us. We are proud, passionate designers who believe you deserve better... Which brings us to our latest developments… Nick Polidoros Director / Designer
room service, our Freefold series asserted that in-room dining should never be a compromise.
A lifetime of design….
conference & banqueting,
action stations,
we unveiled our award winning Rollaway Series; the world’s first linen-free table system.
our expertise delivers the most diverse, the most trend-setting concepts.
buffets, we rejuvenated all traditional presentations and operations through our globally renowned Cross Cubes.
We have changed our ways.
Our environment ‘The time is always right, to do what is right…’ Martin Luther King...
In the past, we used Native Timbers. It was easier, more affordable, and more available. Today, IHS is directly responsible for the salvage of several thousand acres of rain forest by changing to quick growing pine woodlands which are regularly replenished.
Furthermore; • We’re rallying our clients to choose the recyclable stainless steel finishes over the harmful chroming and powder coated options. • We dedicate much energy to our packaging, dealing with responsible and green-rated vendors. • Our package removal program bestows a positive impact through recycling and the reduction of landfill waste.
As for the product itself?
There is no greater green guarantee, than linen-free
Naked presentations are a style we pioneered over three decades ago
We have mastered the table science behind perfect long-term naked presentations. And this in-depth expertise of ours will allow you to; • reduce your water usage; • reduce your energy consumption; • and improve overall lifecycle processes,
Plenty have imitated. But none have replicated our inspiring linen-free systems
all over the long term, so that you’re always doing the right thing by the environment, year after year, not just for the first few months of operation.

Rollaway all-event tables
Fold and roll Yes...this table rolls. Never carry a table again, ever.
It’s a table, • that never needs carrying, • whose speed of handling is 5 times faster than all others, • with not an inch of sway or wobble, • that converts into 3 different styles, • which, in just one size, can service all your event needs,
And therefore it’s a system that delivers perfect linen-free presentations over the long-term.
• truck whose storage is half what you expect, • whose edges are indestructible, • that never touches another during handling and storage, ever.

Stand alone
Optional fold away modesty panel
Optional fold away skirting panel
As a stand-alone table I have unrivalled beauty. I am a work of art.
Sometimes I require modest privacy and my skirt comes down.
For those days when I need full coverage, a 3-sided panel completes me. And it allows me to be anything you want me to be - registration desk, check in counter or display unit.

Rock edge™ Smart top technology
In short this edging is virtually indestructible. • It’s a polyurethane which is injected into the tabletop. • It’s non-removable as it chemically bonds to the wood core.
Strong compound with a sleek contour
• Features 90-degree angled corners which will not break or chip if the tables are dropped.
Perfect linear linking Thanks to Rock edge™, you can seamlessly link your tables
