Background: Reynaers Aluminium is a leading European company that provides innovative and sustainable solutions for windows, doors, and curtain walls worldwide headquartered in Duffel, Belgium and with a national location in Phoenix, Arizona.

Challenge: Reynaers Aluminium is a multinational company with over forty office locations around the world, as well as numerous traveling sales team members who need to join meetings remotely. Reynaers Aluminium discovered the Meeting Owl after listening to feedback from remote team members who shared how challenging it was to participate in meetings remotely. Marketing Coordinator Lyndsay Suchanek explains:

“Before the Meeting Owl, we were only using speakerphones in the center of the conference room table for team meetings. Our remote team members would never know who was talking, and everyone on the call would have to introduce themselves before speaking. There were always a lot of interruptions and it was difficult to contribute to the conversation if you weren’t in the room.”

Use Case:

The CEO of Reynaers Aluminium discovered the Meeting Owl Pro when searching for a solution for their remote team meetings, and as soon as they tried it out in their smaller huddle rooms and larger conference rooms, they immediately got positive feedback from everyone on the team. Lyndsay explains:

“Being able to see everyone at the same time, no matter where they’re located, has been a game-changer for our meetings. The experience for our remote employees is incredible because it auto-focuses on whoever is speaking so they don’t have to interrupt to contribute to the conversation, and the speaker is loud and clear that we can always hear what our remote team members are saying.”

Problem Solved: 

Since implementing the Meeting Owl Pro in early 2020, the Reynaers Aluminium US office has seen a lot of benefit, particularly since the start of COVID-19. 

“When COVID-19 hit, we all started working remotely, and we needed a small crew to work out of the office to get our warehouse back up-and-running. We used the Meeting Owl for almost all team meetings because nearly everyone was remote at that point. Over the last few months, we’ve been slowly transitioning to spending more time in the office, but we’re still on a staggered schedule, so we continue to use the Meeting Owl for almost all of our meetings.”

Looking toward the future, Lyndsay is certain that the Meeting Owl Pro will always be a key piece of Reynaers team meetings:

“The Meeting Owl will always be a part of our company DNA. All of the meetings on our calendar have a Zoom link now for anyone who is traveling or working  remotely or working from home, and we have the Meeting Owl set up for every meeting to make sure we can all contribute to the discussion.”
