Understanding EN 16139:2013

EN 16139:2013 outlines the performance criteria for non-domestic seating, focusing on the ability of chairs and other seating products to withstand the rigors of frequent use in commercial and public environments. The standard provides a framework for assessing various aspects of seating performance to ensure it is safe, durable, and functional.

Our Testing Services

Strength Testing: We assess the structural strength of seating by applying static and dynamic loads to simulate typical use conditions. This includes testing the frame, joints, and connections to ensure they can support the intended load without failure.

Durability Testing: Our tests simulate long-term use to evaluate the durability of non-domestic seating. This includes cyclic loading and wear testing to ensure that the seating maintains its performance and appearance over time.

Safety Evaluation: We inspect seating for potential safety hazards such as sharp edges, unstable components, and malfunctioning mechanisms. Ensuring that all safety features are effective contributes to a safer user experience.

Material Performance Analysis: We evaluate the materials used in seating construction, including upholstery, padding, and frame materials. Tests assess resistance to wear, impact, and environmental factors, ensuring long-term durability and performance.

Functionality Testing: For seating with adjustable features or additional functionalities, we test their performance and ease of use. This includes evaluating mechanisms for adjustability and other operational features to ensure they function smoothly.

Compliance Reporting: We provide detailed reports documenting compliance with EN 16139:2013. Our reports highlight any deviations from the standard, offer recommendations for improvements, and confirm that the seating meets all required quality and safety benchmarks.
