Case Study: A Branded Plywood Storage Solution
The need for durable changing rooms with a team identity
The completion of a new training and match venue gave Kataja Basket the opportunity to update its changing room to meet the demands of modern elite sport.
The aim was to create a stylish, practical and consistent space where every player has a clearly defined place and storage stays organised even under heavy use. The team also wanted Kataja’s strong visual identity to make the changing room feel like its own and help everyday routines run smoothly.
The solution: custom furniture carrying the team’s brand
Kiilax designed and built a complete plywood changing-room furniture solution for Kataja Basket, combining durability, functionality and a strong visual identity.
The furniture was customised with Kataja’s colours, surface materials and details, including logos, spaces for nameplates and a consistent colour scheme. Each player received an individual storage space that helps keep belongings organised and makes daily use easier.
The furniture is designed for heavy use. Reinforced structures, high-quality panel materials and carefully considered details withstand repeated wear and suit the demanding everyday routines of team sport.
“The new changing-room furniture is exactly what we wanted: stylish, practical and unmistakably Kataja. Players can find their belongings easily, and the whole space now has a professional feel.”
