What is contract grade furniture?

Are you tired of sitting in that old, worn-out office chair that’s been passed down from one employee to the next like a hot potato? Do you dream of lounging on a plush, comfortable sofa in the break room, rather than perched on a plastic chair that’s barely held together with duct tape? If so, you may be in need of some contract furniture.

But what is contract grade furniture, you ask? It’s not just any old furniture – it’s furniture specifically designed and manufactured for commercial spaces. That means it’s built to withstand the rigors of daily use by a large number of people and is designed to be durable, functional, and attractive.

Contract furniture is different from residential furniture in a few key ways. For one, it’s usually made with higher-quality materials and construction techniques, so it can stand up to the wear and tear of daily use. It’s also designed to be functional and practical, with features like easy-to-clean surfaces and adjustable height options.

But just because contract furniture is built to last doesn’t mean it has to be boring! There are plenty of stylish and modern options available, so you can create a comfortable and inviting space that your employees and guests will love.

Examples of contract-grade furniture include items like office chairs and desks, lobby furniture, cafe tables and chairs, and room dividers (shocker!).

They are often made with higher-quality materials and construction techniques and are designed to be durable, functional, and attractive.

So why settle for that rickety old office chair when you can upgrade to some sleek, durable contract furniture? Your employees (and your butt) will thank you.
