What is a benching cluster?

A benching cluster is a group of seats arranged in a pod — typically 4, 6, or 8 positions — oriented back-to-back or around a shared spine structure. Clusters create team neighborhoods in open-plan offices, grouping related employees together while maintaining visual connectivity with the broader office. At OfficeFurniture2go.com, 4-seat and 6-seat back-to-back clusters are our most common benching configurations — call 1-800-460-0858 for cluster layout options.
