Are you a school administrator, educator, or facilities manager? If so, there are many decisions that you’re responsible for to ensure a safe and welcoming educational environment.
One of the most important of those is: what type of furniture and fixtures best suit your institution? You want to ensure that you select high-quality products that not only look good but also function well in the space for which they’re intended.
School furniture refers to the various types of chairs, desks, tables, and other pieces of furniture that are used in educational settings, such as classrooms, libraries, and offices. School furniture is designed to be durable, comfortable, and functional, as it needs to withstand heavy use and be suitable for a wide range of activities.
There are many different types of school furniture available, including traditional desk-and-chair combinations, tables and chairs for group work, and adjustable desks and chairs that can be modified to suit the needs of individual students. School furniture is often made of lightweight materials such as plastic or metal, as these materials are easy to move and rearrange.
In recent years, there has been a growing focus on ergonomic design in school furniture, as it has been found that students who are more comfortable and relaxed while studying tend to perform better academically. As such, school furniture is increasingly being designed with ergonomic features, such as adjustable heights, lumbar support, and contoured seats and backs.
When it comes to the education of both children and adult learners, we want to provide them with the most comfortable space in which to learn. Furniture that provides comfort as well as functionality is more likely to facilitate optimal productivity.
Perhaps the most important pieces of furniture for schools are chairs, tables, and desks. These comprise the bulk of what most classrooms require, providing support to students and teachers, and ample space upon which they can work.
Chairs play a crucial role in the comfort and productivity of students and staff. Fortunately, at Shiffler Equipment, we offer a diverse variety of chairs for schools, from more traditional desk chairs to stackable chairs and even artistic chairs!
However, not all chairs are created equal. That’s why it’s important to know which type of chair is right for your school. For example, if you’re looking for a traditional desk chair, the Pedagogy Badger 16″ School Chair may be a good fit.
Alternatively, if you want to give your school a more modern feel, the Intellect Wave Cantilever Chair may be the chair that you’re seeking. This stylish chair has a comfortable 18” seat height, it’s exceptionally customizable, and it boasts a chrome book rack for extra storage space!
We also offer several types of tables for schools that are perfect for everything from classrooms to science labs. Elementary school students may require activity tables, while high school students might benefit from collaborative tables.
Perhaps you’ll want mobile tables or folding tables to optimize the functionality of the space (or to simplify clean up for your facilities maintenance teams). Whatever the application, you can find what you need at Shiffler Equipment.
With an abundance of options for you to choose from, it can become exhausting to determine which are most ideal for your needs.
