Safe seating, safe home: Top factors to consider for ensuring furniture safety in your household
When it comes to ensuring safety in the household, many homeowners focus on aspects such as fire safety, electrical safety, and emergency preparedness. While these are undoubtedly important considerations, another area that is often overlooked is the role of furniture in keeping everyone in the house safe and sound – away from potential harm and accidents.
Have you ever
considered that household furniture such as TV, chest of drawers or even a
piece of chair can be a dangerous piece of furniture – especially to your
children?
In
line with its thrust to provide the best quality products and meet the desire
of the consumers for durable and value for money household items, Uratex
Monoblock launched its “Bawal Ang Marupok” campaign to educate and equip every
homeowner to be keen and discerning towards investing in furniture -
particularly in plastic chairs which are considered one of the essential and
popular household items found in most Filipino homes and establishments.
Monobloc chairs are a common sight in homes, buildings and various indoor and outdoor spaces. They are practically affordable, easy to use, and can be easily moved around, making them a smart choice for seating solutions. However, not all monobloc chairs are created equal. While they are generally durable and long-lasting, there are some common problems that can arise with them over time. To ensure safety, Uratex Monoblock shares the top 3 important factors that homeowners and entrepreneurs should consider before purchasing a monobloc chair:
Durability
Monobloc
chairs are designed to be lightweight, stackable and easy to move. As you use
them overtime, they can become vulnerable to wear and tear, cracking, or
breaking which can be considered a safety hazard.
There are a
wide variety of plastic chairs available but looking at the quality of the
material and how they are being made are important to ensure that they are
really long-lasting and can withstand the test of time. Chairs made from cheap,
low-quality plastic may be more prone to breaking so it is ideal to ensure if
the monobloc chairs have gone through the proper testing and inspection before
they were released to the market. It is also best to go for well-known and
established brands that have a reputation for producing high-quality products.
Seatload Capacity
Monobloc
chairs come with weight limits that vary depending on their design and
construction. Chairs with higher weight limits are generally more durable and
sturdy. Additionally, it demonstrates its quality by being able to carry a
substantial amount of weight or impact without breaking, which is crucial for
chairs that will be subjected to everyday use.
Be sure to
check the weight capacity of the chair you are considering through its seatload
warning label to ensure its stability – preventing you from tipping off and
encountering serious injuries, particularly for your kids.
Certification
Industry certifications ensure that products meet certain quality
standards and have been tested and approved by credible independent third-party
organizations. With this, customers may be guaranteed that the monobloc chairs
are good quality and safe to use without any risks.
For homeowners, it provides assurance that their loved ones are safe
using a certified, high-quality chair. For entrepreneurs, this allows them to
meet regulatory bodies safety standards by providing their customers and
employees with durable and safe day-to-day monoblock chairs.
Now, as regular consumers, how are you going to know the durability,
capacity, and certification of a monobloc chair? All you have to do is check
the warning sticker of a monobloc chair!
The Uratex Monoblock chair has the highest seat load capacity on the market at 200kg. To prove this as well as its durability, each chair has undergone a series of tests before it was released to the public as part of the rules and regulations established by the Department of Trade and Industry - Bureau of Philippine Standards (DTI-BPS).
Among the tests executed are the Chair Fatigue, Breaking Point, and
the Chair Drop – which are all designed to assess the durability and safety of
each Uratex Monoblock chair.
With this, Uratex Monoblock is the first brand in the Philippines to pass the country's highest plastic furniture standard, Level 5 of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) - ISO 7173.
Chair Fatigue test Chair Drop test Breaking Point test
It is essential to take precautions when selecting household or
commercial furniture since making the wrong choice might result in accidents
and injuries. Furthermore, the lifespan of a product is determined by its
quality, which means that a less-priced option may really be more expensive due
to several replacements. To guarantee overall safety, always look for a chair’s
durability, capacity, and certification.
