Chairs

One of the most important things that people look forward to in almost every aspects of life is comfort, whether be it while travelling, being in a social group, or simply reclining in a chair to watch a movie. And talking about creating a comfort zone in the seating department, especially for the workplace, you simply cannot take any chances when choosing the perfect chairs. What’s more, with a heap of options under various categories of workplace chairs serving different purposes, choosing the chairs that can work for you can strangely be both easy as well as difficult. While a large number of options can confuse you no end, you can ironically come across chairs with features that would prove beneficial for you.

Now, it goes without saying that the seating arrangement at a workplace greatly determines the efficiency of the employees. The more comfortable their chairs are the better will be the productivity of their work, thereby influencing the business in turn. However, another factor that is as important as the issue of comfort at the workplace is fulfilling the safety standards of the place. Industrial furniture plays a fairly big role in ensuring safety at the workplace, what with several hazardous elements like pollutants and static electricity looming large within most work environments. No wonder therefore, that the market comes alive with function-specific options like cleanroom chairs, ergonomic chairs, ESD chairs and even stools.

Ergonomic chairs work best for employees who engage in their daily functions in a seated position throughout their work hours. Features such as arm rests, back support and height adjustable options offer more room for comfort and flexibility, thereby enhancing the performance of a worker. In a more dynamic and technologically elaborate work area, safety is of high importance and precision should be the key factor in the production or research process. That’s where cleanroom chairs and ESD chairs come in to help any industrial unit in meeting the safety requirements by taking care of contaminants and electrostatic discharge and facilitating precision based performance.

Besides this, you can even further enhance the performance of your industrial work benches and chairs through various accessories. These accessories optimise the functionality of the work benches and chairs to higher levels. For instance, there are bench accessories such as steel drawers to store additional items, leg extensions to increase height, riser shelves, and so on. What is vital really is choosing the products that best meet your needs and elevate your business.

Keep It Neat With Packaging Benches

Ergonomically designed packaging benches with fully welded frames and adjustable rails are strong and aesthetic. They don't clutter up your workspace and serve as reliable work benches that can be used to stock cartons, paper, packaging material and other essentials required during the course of work. Packaging workbenches usually come with adjustable supports of different heights, customised worktops, steel dividers and laminated compartments for optimum utilisation of space.

Packaging involves concentration and making a quality product look presentable. For this purpose, dedicated workbenches are required, so that the worker can focus on the materials at hand and have the required space to put them together in the best way possible. Since office space is often a constraint, these benches need to be compact, while being functional and sturdy. If storage is what you are looking for, then you might go in for a packaging bench that has compartments both above the work surface and beneath it. Choose a model with as many compartments as you need, for they will help you avoid confusion and save time by storing products in segregated spaces that can be labelled for convenience. Cardboard rolls, tape, boxes, everything can now be accommodated in the steel-lined recesses of work benches. Adjustable riser shelves and bin rails make packaging a pleasure; channel uprights and mounted enclosures keep your goods safe.

Packaging workbenches are the next-generation furniture, and like all things modern, are made for convenience. They are specially designed to cater to the specific needs of packagers, who, though at the end of the manufacturing line, are an important part of production. Simple design, elegant finish, sturdiness and long life are the hallmarks of industrial work benches, which are superior to regular office furniture in all respects. With good load capacity, equipment bins and a large packing area, a packaging workbench is the modular solution for offices with special packaging needs.

One can always throw in an add-on table, a mobile stand, a top shelf and other odds and ends to the work benches according to one's requirements and up the utility factor. They are ideal for technical assembly and warehouses too, and are generally designed to accommodate dispensers and handling equipment. Customised accessories and engineered perfection make a packaging work bench more than a piece of furniture--it is a tool that can enhance productivity and reduce incidents of injury at the workplace, while providing a quality surface for assembly and packing.

Corner stations

Do you ever feel weighed down by the pressure of your industrial machineries and equipments running amok due to poor space management? If you think your equipments are occupying way too much space than they should and can do with some space conservation makeover, here�s news for you. The trick in arranging all your industrial equipments in the most feasible manner possible lies in utilising the commonly ignored space to create additional room with the aid of special industrial furniture. Corner stations or corner units belong to a special breed of industrial work benches that are designed to bring in a new wave of clutter free work environment.

More than just the simple racks that you have at home to place your books and decor pieces, corner stations have the ability to withstand the weight of heavy industrial equipments. Moreover, these sturdy units, which are born out of heavy gauge steel with laminated edging and powder-coated frames have the faculty to stand the tests of time and offer long-term service. While standard benches can take care of your shelving requirements to some extent, you need quality work benches when it comes to taking up as little space as possible at your workplace. You can even go a step further and improvise by applying some accessories like pull-open drawers, adjustable uprights, and rulers to enhance the performance of the corner units.

Besides this, you can even choose the number of shelves that you want for your corner station, although you really shouldn�t exceed the weight limit of your unit. Every shelf has the ability to support a weight of about 250 lbs, backed by side stringer supports and heavy duty square tubing legs at the bottom. Moreover, the double corner cantilever risers with black T-Mold edging and black laminate work surface with black T-Mold edging coupled with standard blue powdered coat paint for maximum durability make the units quite a favourite at various industries. These babies even have some steel utility drawers in different sizes to take in files and smaller equipments besides the machineries on the shelves.

Now, if you think these units are all substance and no style, you need to look at the latest corner stations that grace the market these days. With some pretty chic designs and sleek frames, the corner units exude exuberance in a way that befits the most fashionable work places. Add a dash of your creative imaginary through the colours that you want on your corner stations , and make a few improvisations here and there, and you are all set for a classy workplace that reflects both style and performance.

Have You Installed ESD Benches Yet ?

How would you want your furniture or storage equipments to be if you were running your own little industry? As strong as they come to withstand the pressure of time and the amount of machinery that they would hold, I’m sure. But that’s not all that you need to take care of if you are into the manufacture of highly delicate technological equipments in the likes of silicon chips and disc drives; for now you would have to tackle such probable issues as contamination and static charges. The solution lies in the form of ESD (electrostatic dissipation) furniture that is specially designed to attune to the safety requirements of cleanrooms and thereby ensure the manufacturing of high quality products without any problems.

Running an industry would require you to make a sizeable investment of your capital on the right cleanroom furniture, failing which, consequences that are hazardous to both your business and the production process are most likely show up someday. It therefore, becomes quite impertinent that you make the right decision and choose your chairs, tables, and benches with precaution. ESD benches, almost immediately, sum up as an impromptu solution as they are designed to dissipate electrostatic charge to the ground and eliminate the risk there itself. Owing to this noble characteristic, this category of benches is used in a lot of industries like computers, biomedicine, pharmaceuticals and aerospace.

As a vital member of the industrial work benches category, ESD benches are ergonomically designed and built to sustain heavy machinery with much ease due to their heavy duty frames. These benches even come with height adjustment abilities to ensure ease of use while running various machineries during the manufacturing process. Look out for bench accessories, such as steel drawers, laminate drawers, adjustable uprights, riser shelves, leg extensions and casters that would go on to increase the efficiency and performance of the benches.

When it comes to ensuring the safety and the long run of cleanrooms, an extra investment on the purchase of quality work benches go a long way in ensuring good business as well. Since the workers and the equipment themselves are the major sources of contaminants, there is no better way than to utilise ESD benches to keep such unwanted hazards at bay. A piece of good news for people who are on the verge of being convinced in the efficiency of such benches is the room for customisation that has been made available by the makers of industrial work benches. Now, you can choose benches with footrests towards the front or the rear, the height and dimension of the benches, and so on.

How To Choose The Best Work Bench

Sleek industrial work benches made of sturdy metallic materials can support a lot of weight and not cave in under pressure. They are available in the common dimensions as well as in custom sizes. Other than standard benches, there are specially designed models like packaging work benches with steel dividers, solid double-sided benches, LAN stations, corner units, special carts and racks and much more. All these cater to the specific shelving needs of an office. A three-piece corner unit, for example, uses space optimally to serve as a workstation for at least two workers, and offers ample storage space in the form of pull-open drawers.

Moulded, laminated edging and a coat of rust and stain-free paint makes industrial work benches long-lasting furniture. Square tubing improves the aesthetics of standard benches, a strong frame makes the bench a high-quality utility and specially welded footrests protect the floor from scratches. Heavy-duty open storage can’t get better than this. Contemporary design combined with good reliability and strength is the USP of standard benches made of steel, one of the most industrially preferred building materials. Ergonomics and style are taken into account while constructing these pieces, which serve needs as diverse as holding heavy accounts books to storing electrical equipment.

You can add to your customised industrial work bench accessories like steel drawers for storing files, with and without locks, as well as a range of fittings and add-ons like bottom shelves, riser shelves, specialised lighting, leg extensions, hydraulics, rulers, etc. These bench accessories make your workstation a self-contained module where you can work efficiently without having to get up now and then to fetch something you need. Stock all your office stationery and industrial tools right inside your industrial work bench.

And the best part is, standard benches made for industrial purposes look as sleek and shiny as their commercial, generic counterparts. In fact, you can paint your industrial bench any colour you like, to match the décor of your office. Add some teardrop lighting, and you’re all set for a glitzy workstation that is also strong and won’t give in when you place a particularly heavy piece of machinery on it. Go in for thick, high-density particle boards for a sturdy surface and choose auto-lift hydraulic industrial work benches if that’s what you’re looking for. And yes, for good old-fashioned drafting, there are modern benches with high resistance, fitted surface tilts according to your specifications and gauge steel legs.

Cleanroom furniture and consumables

Every industrial unit engaged in the process of manufacturing high end electronic devices or in the field of complex scientific research work needs to maintain a particular standard of safety and cleanliness in the work area. Since a number of hazardous elements like contaminants, pollutants and electrostatic discharge are a common concern for various industrial genres like medical research, biomedicine, and aeronautics, specialised equipments for the purpose are needed. Besides the machines and equipments used in the manufacturing and research work, the industrial furniture to be used at the workplace also need to go through the safety and cleanliness check. Even the minutest of contaminants can force the production of silicon chips and hard drives to turn turtle, which so to speak can be passed on to by work benches and chairs that fail to comply with the safety standards set by the regulating authorities.

Since cleanrooms are those vital segments of an industrial unit within which the production and the research work are conducted. In stark consonance to the name, a cleanroom is an industrial haven that is devoid of any signs of contaminants and other hazards. And what induces such an immaculate work environment is a well planned assortment of specialised cleanroom furniture and consumables that are custom made just for the task. What you must understand here is that these are not your regular standard benches, but customised furniture designed for your cleanrooms.

In order to maintain the safety rigors of cleanrooms, workers are required to be dressed in industrial quality overalls, which in turn need to be stored in dust free racks meant especially for the purpose. This is where gowning racks and gowning benches come in. These can be customised to include hangers, wire shelves, S hooks, undershelves, dividers and other necessities that facilitate storage of special worker uniforms. The units come with bench accessories designed to make the gowning rack a perfect rack for storing industrial clothes away from contaminants and in the safety of a confined, well-allocated atmosphere. Racks with solid or perforated tops, in chrome or silver finish, will not only help you keep workers’ outfits neatly segregated, but also enliven a cleanroom. They can be anchored to the floor if need be, can contain heavy boots or other wearables, and come with supports and a backer to ensure everything stays in its place. There are several affordable industrial quality racks available in the market, so you can easily make your workplace safe and comfortable for your workers.
