🏫 Choosing Conference Seats for School Halls: Technically Correct Choices
Conference halls built in public schools or private educational institutions are often converted from areas that are not architecturally designed for this purpose. This situation necessitates making the right decisions in terms of engineering rather than aesthetics when choosing seats. Especially in areas open to student use, every technical detail directly affects the maintenance cost, comfort of use and prestige of the institution over the years.
Below, based on the field data obtained by Nish Global from more than 1500 school projects, the technical components of the ideal seat are presented below. we share:
---
1️⃣ Armrest Width: Maximum Efficiency, Minimum Space Loss
One of the most critical problems in school projects is to obtain the maximum number of seats to fit into the hall. For this reason, wide armrests, extra metal supports or flashy forms should not be preferred in the seats used. Every centimeter is worth gold, especially in row axle distances that can be as low as 2.20 meters. cm
✅ Recommended size between axles: 53–55 cm
These dimensions increase the capacity without reducing the physical comfort of the student. maximize

2️⃣ Sponge Density and Deformation Resistance: Why Do We Use 55 DNS?
Students' session habit is different from adults. Behaviors such as jumping on the sofa, sitting sideways or sitting with the bag while sitting cause the sponge to deform in a very short time. For this reason, lower density sponge is generally used in school projects. However, this creates a serious collapse and loss of form within the first 6 months.
This type of sponge is resistant to deformation against intensive use by students and maintains its form for many years. protects.

3️⃣ Seat Mechanism: Counterweight System for Silence and Durability However, these systems become loose over time and sound It starts to fail and spring breaks cause serious service needs. In addition, as the spring tension becomes unbalanced over time, the seat either slams closed too quickly or stops rotating. We do not use it.
✅ Instead, we use completely silent counterweight systems. Spontaneously without making a sound in moments that require silence, such as returns.

4️⃣ Leg Design and Assembly Technology: Durability Suitable for School Use For this reason, the sofa legs must fit perfectly on the ground and the installation must be done with the correct screws and dowels according to the type of ground. In addition, the fact that the screw locations are not visible from the outside reduces vandalism and provides aesthetics. system
🧱 Depending on the ground type: Concrete – chemical dowel / Screed – wide sleeve dowel / Wood – double layer insert screw system

5️⃣ Conference Seat Fabric Selection: Stain, Friction and Fire Regulations Because the most common problems are: tearing due to pen tip friction, food stains and shoe contact. In addition, although many customers are not aware of it, it is a legal obligation for all seat fabrics used in public institutions to be flame retardant. features:
Stain repellent nano coating
Minimum 60,000 Martindale friction resistance
ISO 6940/41 fire retardant certificate

🎓 Result: Life is Not the Cheap Seat, It's the Right Seat Saves
Selection of seats in school halls should not be based solely on price. Otherwise, after 1 year, you will end up with a hall full of seats that are loose, make noise, and collapse as you sit on them. Instead, systems with a strong engineering infrastructure and designed to suit the user should be preferred. we are working.
