VEGA quality standards for furniture

Horeca furniture has to withstand a lot in everyday use! Our furniture quality standards ensure trouble-free use for the catering industry. Only if furniture meets these standards, it will be included in our assortment:

• Selection of materials: The materials used in our furniture undergo rigorous testing to meet the stringent requirements of the hospitality industry. In the process, they are tested in the testing laboratory for various situations that occur in everyday catering.
• Tilt resistance: We test all our seating furniture for tilt resistance according to the EN 1022 standard, where the seating furniture is loaded with a certain load on the backrest. The object must not tip over.
• Load capacity: The maximum load capacity of our seating furniture is 160 kg per seat. In long-term tests, we ensure that the furniture can withstand this load permanently.
• Fire protection: Our upholstered furniture meets the most important European fire protection standards required for hotel or restaurant furnishings. This greatly minimizes the fire risk for furniture.
• Durability: All our seating furniture is tested for durability according to the EN 1728 standard. The seat and backrest must withstand 100,000 load cycles. Thus, in 8 days in the test laboratory, up to five years of use in the catering industry is simulated.
• Duration of use: Our seating is very durable and will last for many years under average use. This long service life is simulated and tested in the test laboratory.

Quality tests for upholstered furniture

Upholstered furniture is more delicate than furniture made of wood or other materials. Nevertheless, our upholstered furniture is suitable for the hospitality industry because it meets the most important ISO standards: Abrasion resistance (ISO 12947-2), Lightfastness (ISO 105 B02), Abrasion resistance (ISO 105 X12), Pilling resistance (ISO 12945-2).
