The standard of contract furniture
The standard of contract furniture
As we mentioned earlier,contract furniture are usually tested to much more rigorous standards than items of domestic furniture.This is typically because the enviroments in which the furniture will be used demand higher standards.To take the example,any furniture used on an offshore oil and gas platform must pass very high fire fasfety standards as offshoure platform is a very risky site.
In some settings,you’ll actually have a legal obligation to use items of furniture which are cmpliant with certain standards.
The type of standards that contract furniture can be tested against include:
. Strength
. Durability
.Dimensions
.Fire and safety.
Aside from these general standards,there are also “sector-specific”standards.
