Metal-Frame & Mesh Chairs
Dining, leisure and accent chairs on steel- and tube-metal frames. We bend and weld the frame, then upholster or mesh it — so the part that takes the load is ours, not a bought-in shell.
This is the work the factory was built around. A metal-frame chair stands or falls on the frame: the tube it's bent from, the way the joints are welded, and the finish that keeps it from rusting. We hold all three in-house rather than buy the cheapest frame on the market that week.
Seats can be upholstered foam, mesh, PU or fabric over a moulded shell — your call. Where a buyer wants a budget build for light home use, we'll quote it, but we'll tell you which tube and finish we'd drop to hit the price, and what that costs you in lifespan.
What you can configure
These are the choices that move the price and the performance. Lock the ones that matter to your market and leave the rest to us.

One trade-off worth getting right: tube wall thickness
The cheapest frame we can make uses thin-wall tube. It looks identical in a photo and shaves real money off the unit price. For a chair that sits in a home a few hours a day, it's fine. For a café, a waiting room or anything that gets dragged daily, we push you to heavier-wall tube — it costs a little more per chair and it stops the wobble and weld cracks that come back as complaints. We'd rather quote the honest tube than win on a number that fails in the field.
Metal-Frame & Mesh Chairs — what buyers ask
It depends on the model and how much customisation you need. A stock design in a standard frame colour runs lower than a fully custom build with your own fabric and packaging. Send the model and target quantity and we'll give you a straight MOQ rather than a brochure number.
Usually, yes. Send a photo or a link and, if you can, a sample. We measure the parts that matter — tube wall thickness, frame geometry, hinge and finish — and quote to those, telling you anything we'd change to make it last.
We build and bench-test to BIFMA and the relevant EN standard. We do not claim certificates we don't hold. When your order needs a stamped third-party report, we arrange testing through SGS or TÜV and you pay the test fee — we'll quote it before you commit.
That varies with the model and how flat it folds or knocks down. Folding and knock-down packing lifts the count and cuts freight per piece. We'll give you the exact loading plan with the quote so your landed cost is real, not a guess.
