What is Hotel Furniture？
Seems so simple. Yet answering the question, “what is hotel furniture?” requires a great amount of detail.
Hotel furniture (a.k.a. commercial furniture) is the product you will find in a hotel, restaurant or commercial setting within high-traffic areas. Examples of this include, but are not limited to; headboards, nightstands, coffee tables, vanities, entertainment units, dining tables, chairs, etc.
So, what makes hotel furniture different than the furniture you would find in your home?
WHAT MAKES HOTEL FURNITURE DIFFERENT?
Hotel furniture, unlike residential furniture, is known for its ability to resist wear and tear from constant use for long periods of time. Most importantly, it must undergo stability, durability, and weight testing to meet commercial-grade standards.
Hotel furniture is also designed to be easily maintained and has long-lasting resilience. Many major brands in the hotel industry will require owners to upgrade their hotel furniture every 8-10 years (Note: this also happens so designs within the hotel room are kept current).
A qualified hotel furniture manufacturer understands and can educate you on how these requirements impact your project. Do your homework, and ask if your current manufacturer complies with current AWI and FSC standards.
