Built for Safety. Backed for Reliability.

- Compliance with BS EN1729 Part 1 ensures the 460mm seat height is ergonomically correct for the 14+ age group, reducing the risk of back pain.
- The Waterfall Seat Front reduces compression on the back of the thighs, ensuring blood flow remains unrestricted during long periods of sitting.
- Heavy-duty Tamper-Proof fasteners keep the shell securely attached to the skid frame, ensuring safety even in high-traffic corridors.
- We offer a market-leading 15-year manufacturer's guarantee. This covers the structural welds and the plastic shell, giving you total peace of mind.

FAQs: The UK’s Leading School Seating Solutions
Q: Is "Size 6" the correct choice for my college?
A: Size 6 is the industry standard for users between 1590mm and 1880mm in height. With a seat height of 460mm, it is the ideal specification for Sixth Forms, Colleges, Universities, and Secondary Schools (Year 10+), comfortably accommodating fully grown students.
Q: Why choose a skid-base chair over a standard 4-leg model?
A: A 4-leg chair concentrates pressure on small points, which can mark flooring. The steel skid base acts as a continuous rail, spreading user weight evenly. This protects your floor investment and significantly reduces noise in quiet study zones.
Q: How effective is the Anti-Tilt feature?
A: It is extremely effective. By angling the rear frame backwards, the centre of gravity is shifted. This makes it mechanically difficult to lean the chair back on two legs, proactively reducing the risk of classroom falls and spinal injuries.
Q: Does this chair comply with BS EN1729?
A: Yes. It is fully compliant with BS EN1729 Parts 1 & 2. Part 1 covers the ergonomic dimensions required for healthy posture, while Part 2 certifies the structural strength and stability for heavy-duty institutional use.
Q: What is the maximum user weight?
A: These chairs are engineered for durability and are rated for a maximum user weight of 125kg (approx. 19 stone), making them suitable for a wide demographic of students and staff.
Q: Are these chairs stackable?
A: Yes. The skid-base design allows for stable vertical stacking up to 5 units high, facilitating easy floor cleaning and flexible room management.
Q: Is the Light Grey shell easy to keep clean?
A: Yes. The high-grade polypropylene is non-porous and resistant to ink and chemicals. It can be cleaned easily with warm soapy water and a damp cloth. We recommend drying immediately to keep the grey finish streak-free.
Q: Why purchase from Cobolt Furniture?
A: With 50 years of heritage, we are a trusted partner to UK education. We offer Free UK Mainland Delivery, a market-leading 15-year warranty, and expert advice to simplify your procurement process.
