V2 Training we are previewing a further expansion of the V2 table system, which includes T-legs, flip-top tables, folding legs, and a range of options for top surfaces. Juno a collection of patient room casegoods for Krug Healthcare Solutions a product line that is rapidly becoming one of the industry s most important healthcare resources. Juno offers a full range of models, configurations, and materials, in a clean, attractive design that is highly durable, and has been engineered to provide for an extensive range of replacement components. Jordan Sleepers the Jordan collection from Krug Healthcare Solutions is expanded again to include a one-seat and two-seat sleeper, available with casters or legs, that has been designed to provide great comfort in both the seated and sleeping positions. It s unique foldout provides wall protection. Jordan Recliners we are expanding the offering of Jordan Recliners - which currently includes 3-Position and 3-Position with Trendelenberg Recliners with the addition of a Lay-Flat Recliner, and a Fold-Down Arm Recliner. These new additions expand the Jordan Recliner range of solutions even further, and address specific needs for acute-care and other healing environments. In addition, Krug is also previewing an optional large tablet board that will be available on all Jordan Recliners. It can be positioned directly in front of the patient when in use, or folded down to be stored on the outside of the recliner s arm. This year s showroom features a dramatic color palette, consisting of black and white contrasts with hints of soft greens and dusty blues. Combining the monochromatic black and white with sleek metal accents creates a contemporary interior and adds dramatic flair to the space. The subtle addition of green and blue shades conveys an organic and natural feeling, offsetting the stark blacks and whites.

2 This contrasting theme has been carried out throughout the display pieces in the showroom. A marrying of black and white product prints, along with the abstract canvases of green organic forms, run horizontally along the walls of the showroom. The overall theme down to the finest detail has been carried throughout the showroom, and not just displayed on the product itself. Krug Healthcare Solutions is displayed in the rear area of the showroom, showcasing an expansion of the Jordan line, and the new collection of Juno patient room casegoods. Designed under a process that has included extensive collaboration with several leading healthcare architects, designers, and professionals, Juno is an exciting new entry into the patient room casegoods market. Juno has a clean, modern design. It features a highly durable dry-fit construction to provide long product life, and an ability to extend that product life through replacement of damaged or degraded components. A full range of cabinets and extensive range of options, provide a fresh solution for patient rooms, and a great complement to Jordan seating and tables. The Jordan healthcare seating collection has been expanded again, with the just-introduced Jordan Sleepers. The Jordan Sleepers a one-seater and two-seater - are designed to ensure a comfortable overnight stay for guests, visitors and family members. The Jordan Sleeper easily converts from a stand alone lounge chair to a bed with a few simple steps, and the foldout protects adjacent walls. In addition, the showroom features the recent addition of the expanded range of Jordan Recliners: a Lay-Flat Recliner, and a Fold-Down Arm Recliner. Also featured extensively in the showroom is Corfu an exciting new seating collection that was previewed at last year s Neocon, and introduced earlier this year.
