CHW office furniture have introduced some new draughtsman chairs for 2010, to enhance our comprehensive range of general operator and executive seating which are always held in stock for fast nationwide delivery.

If you require a fabric upholstered draughtsman chair, then we have three  to choose from, all of which have a permanent contact backrest and a fixed foot-ring.

They are all guaranteed for five years and are available from stock for delivery in 5 to 7 working days.

All three draughtsman chairs are available in either a blue, black, bordeaux or grey fabric.

Both the seat and the backrests of these chairs are height adjustable ( Ratchet system on the backrest and gas lift mechanism on the seat)

In addition to the above models we also hold in stock an antistatic draughtsman chair. This additional attribute is often specified for scientific research areas or laboratories, although we have supplied a few computer maintenance companies with them.

We also have two  draughtsman chairs which have wooden, rather than fabric upholstered  seats. These are usually specified for food preparation areas, where a fabric seat would not be suitable.

The seat and backrests are made from solid beech or beech wood laminate, which is then steam bent to the required shape.

The beech seat is a simple solution for areas where hygiene and cleanliness are of paramount importance, but these seats, being solid wood, are not suited for prolonged periods of use.

For this reason a also have a range of draughtsman chairs which are properly upholstered, but with a strong vinyl fabric. These are comfortable and easy to clean.

Staying with the concept of being comfortable, yet easy to clean in demanding environments,  we also have a range of draughtsman chairs where the seat and backrest are made from solid moulded CFC free polyurethane.

As well as being hard wearing and very comfortable,  these chairs are also resistant to a wide range of chemicals and are naturally resistant to germs and bacteria.

So a complete range of eight draughtsman chairs to suit all requirements, all of which are available from stock, and some in a choice of fabric finishes.

And whilst we are on the subject of draughtsman chairs we are often asked for one of these chairs, but with castors fitted instead of glides.

We always make a point of explaining to our customers that draughtsman chairs are fitted with castors, because their increased height makes them less stable when getting off them.

Glides grip the floor and prevent the chair form shooting backwards, away from the user.

This is a health and safety issue and all manufacturers of these chairs only supply them with glides.
