Kent NHS Trust Secure Hospital Office Chair Restoration
Project: NHS Office Chair Restoration
Where: Kent
Who: Kent NHS Trust Secure Hospital
Restoring NHS office chairs involves repairing and refurbishing key components like seat cushions, armrests, and back supports to extend their lifespan. This process often includes reupholstering, replacing worn-out parts, and ensuring compliance with healthcare infection control standards.
The restoration not only enhances user comfort but also represents a cost-effective and environmentally sustainable alternative to purchasing new chairs. By opting for restoration, the NHS can maintain functional, comfortable seating for staff while reducing waste and minimizing the environmental impact of disposal.
Specialist Upholstery Services took care to restore these pieces by making small but important repairs, like recovering seats, reinforcing arms, and refilling cushions. Instead of discarding the entire item due to minor damage, we focused on giving each one a new lease on life.
These repairs not only meet infection control standards but also ensure comfort for those using them. By choosing to repair rather than replace, we’ve saved both money and helped reduce waste, contributing to a more sustainable and cost-effective solution.
