It's forty years now since polyurethane foam became the material of choice for furniture padding and brought low cost comfortable
upholstered furniture to the masses, replacing the much more expensive natural latex or other more expensive and less comfortable alternatives.
To begin with there was resistance to the new material from traditionalists, but ultimately as polyurethane foam production grew more
widespread, price made the widespread revolutionary use of polyurethane foam happen.
This new material now has a huge place in the comfortable seating market.
In those forty years foam density has reduced, the foam has become more durable and the economics of mass production
have all fuelled the irresistible rise and rise of this ubiquitous material. The market for foam started being met
by the big chemical companies, General Tire, Union Carbide and Dupont to name a few
but as the market matured it was, as is so often the American way, smaller entrepreneurs who were most able to meet the increasingly exacting
requirements of the furniture industry.
Consisent strides forward have been made in comfort and durability for this important material
but increasingly today, safety and environmental concerns have also hold sway. Controls for flammability
have been tightened and much research has gone into producing
foam with limited environmental impact. These developments mean that furniture based on polyurethane foam can be purchased to day with limited concerns about
flammability and the environment. The manufacturers we have partnerships with have strong working relationships their foam producers and
consequently they produce some of the best furniture of this type
available today on the Internet.
Our range includes a number of stylish seats which would work well in a modern apartment or in contemporary shared areas for commercial meetings. The contemporary look is popular in many open semi-public settings such as in meeting facilities, hotel lobbies and anywhere where an atmosphere of clean efficiency is wished for.
Enjoy all the convenience of comfort combined with exciting colors and finishes in leather, fabrics, metal, and woods. We have compiled an amazing group of upholstered chairs that will fit any space in your home where seating is needed. Classics include Parson’s and Deco. Brown is one of the warming colors designed to naturally complement. Add an inviting welcome with tones in gleaming brown.
