Foam Fabrication
Chairtex allows only the highest quality contract / commercial grade foams
in all its seating. Chairtex uses high-density 2.2 lb virgin polyurethane
foam on most of its seats. Also available is Chairtex's exclusive Duo-FoamTM
seat construction, which is made from a bottom layer of very dense 4.0
lb foam and topped off with a plush layer of 2.2 lb foam. This seat construction
is standard on Infinity and Eternity Collections and optional on other
collections. |

Foam Resiliency
Foam density is considered the most important indicator of overall foam
quality. Cheap, low-density 1.5 lb foam will not remain resilient for
very long. In fact it will lose almost half of its resiliency in the first
year and eventually leaving you sitting on the wood of the chair. Chairtex's
contract grade 2.2 lb foam was formulated to be the highest quality foam
available in the seating industry. The resulting seats are both extremely
durable and comfortable. |

Fabric Quality Control
Chairtex partners with leading fabric mills supplying only the highest
quality commercial and contract fabrics. These mills employ some of the
most stringent quality control systems in use today.

Fabric Durability and Testing
Chairtex only offers fabrics that are classed as commercial / contract
grade. Our standard fabrics achieve abrasion test results as high as 250,000
double rubs without showing signs of wear. Fabrics are also tested for
colorfastness through exposure to light. Our fabrics also pass the puncture
test by allowing the puncture hole to be rubbed away.

Upholstering
Chairtex combines the highest quality foams and upholsters them with contract
grade fabrics to create the premium quality seats and backs that Chairtex's
seating is renowned for. Craftsmanship is evident from the sewing detail
to the upholstery design. |
