Frequently Asked Questions

Is MTA furniture and educational equipment tested for safety?

Yes. Everything MTA sells undergoes rigorous testing, and all furniture, learning resources and equipment comply with mandatory New Zealand safety standards.

What does a MTA learning environment fitout include?

A MTA learning environment fitout can include the furniture, educational resources and specialist equipment needed to create a complete, functional learning space. Depending on your project, we can help with tables and seating, storage, indoor and outdoor learning resources, sensory equipment, classroom technology, and more.

Can MTA plan a fitout using our existing floor plans?

Yes. If you already have floor plans, architectural drawings or room measurements, our team can use them during the planning process. We’ll help you select furniture, resources and equipment that suit the available space and the way it needs to function.

How early should we contact MTA about a learning environment project?

We recommend contacting MTA as early as possible. Involving our team during the planning stage gives us more opportunity to understand your requirements, recommend suitable products and assist with space planning or 3D modelling where appropriate.

If your project is already underway, you can still contact us. We’ll work with you to understand what has been decided and where our team can help.

Can MTA help if we’re unsure what furniture or resources we need?

Absolutely. You don’t need to have everything worked out before speaking with us.

During your discovery session, we’ll discuss your space, your learners, how you want the environment to work and what you hope to achieve. From there, our team can recommend furniture, educational resources and equipment suited to your needs.

How much does a learning environment fitout cost?

The cost of a learning environment fitout depends on the size of the space, the scope of the project and the furniture, resources and equipment required.

Our team can work with your available budget, helping you prioritise essential items, explore suitable options and develop a solution that supports your goals. Where appropriate, we can also help you plan the project in stages.

Can MTA help with a smaller refurbishment or classroom refresh?

Yes. You don’t need to be furnishing an entire centre or school to work with MTA. We can help refresh an individual classroom, learning area, staffroom, library, sensory space or outdoor environment.

Whether you’re replacing a few key pieces, improving storage or creating a more flexible learning space, our team can recommend options that complement what you already have.

Where does MTA provide learning environment fitout services?

MTA provides learning environment fitout services throughout New Zealand, with Sales Representatives located across the country to support early childhood centres, schools and OSCAR programmes.
