School furniture – School equipment

School furniture and other equipment

Ein Schultisch mit Büchern wartet darauf, dass die Schüler wieder in den Unterricht zurückkehren

In schools, the existing school furniture has to withstand a great deal. Tables, chairs and other items of furniture are used by many different people every day and, in the process, are moved, subjected to heavy use and, in some cases, treated rather roughly.
In addition, school furniture and floors are cleaned regularly. This gives rise to requirements that should be taken into account when selecting suitable components.

Please also take a look at our guide to furniture glides. Here you’ll find some advice on which glides and furniture feet to use for different floor types and applications.
