Stability and safety requirements for seatings: important news from the European standardization

During 2018 two important revisions of European standards in the furniture sector have been published. Important because they deal with seating which is a fundamental furniture element.

The first standard concerns the stability of seating, at its third revision:
UNI EN 1022:2018 "Furniture - Seating – Determination of stability".
 
The second one defines the safety requirements of office work chairs:
UNI EN 1335-2:2018 "Office furniture – Office work chair - Part 2: Safety requirements" (read more).
