Tables, chairs and furniture: safety and durability tests

Buying quality furniture means investing in safety, comfort and durability. Whether it is tables, chairs or other furniture, it is essential to know that these products have undergone rigorous safety, strength and durability tests. This is the task of specialised laboratories, which assess the construction and mechanical safety, resistance to the stresses of use and durability of the finished product, in accordance with national, European and international technical standards.

The operating sections and the products tested

Laboratories that test finished products are generally organised into several specialised operating sections, each dedicated to a specific product category.
The specialised operating sections make it possible to use equipment and test methods adapted to the different requirements of the various types of products, thus ensuring that each item is tested to the appropriate standards. It is subdivided as follows:

• Chairs section: advanced in-house equipment is used to test the safety, strength and fatigue of a wide range of chairs, including domestic chairs, contract chairs, office chairs, outdoor chairs and children's chairs.
• Tables and furniture section: advanced technology is used, including traditional testing machines, anthropomorphic robots and software for simulations on virtual prototypes, to test the safety, durability and strength of tables, desks and furniture of all kinds.

Chairs and tables in step with standards

In addition to strength and durability tests, laboratories are involved in assessing the ergonomics of products, carrying out qualitative assessments of comfort. Standardisation plays a crucial role in the whole process, with laboratories working daily on the drafting and revision of technical standards developed by standardisation committees operating at national (UNI), European (CEN) and international (ISO) level, contributing to the continuous improvement of safety and quality standards in the furniture industry.
