Frequently asked questions
- What does "BIFMA-compliant" mean for an office chair?
- It means the chair was tested to a named BIFMA standard, such as ANSI/BIFMA X5.1 for general-purpose office chairs. X5.11 uses a 181 kg (400 lb) occupant as its basis. The standards describe a chair's safety and durability, not how its leather wears, so ask for the standard, the edition and a test report.
- How can I tell what leather is in an executive chair?
- Ask for the grade by name, such as full-grain, top-grain, split or bonded, rather than accepting "genuine leather". A grain pattern that repeats identically across chairs may be embossed, which points to corrected grain. Ask for the finish, the leather abrasion test method and result, and the upholstery warranty in writing.
- How do I choose leather for an executive cabin?
- Start with how the chairs will be used and seen, then decide the grade and finish, ask for written test results, and compare suppliers on the same terms. Hausbarn designs and builds executive cabin furniture through manufacturing partners, so contact us to discuss a specification.
