The Quest for Congregational Comfort
When religious leaders think about providing comfort, they're usually focused on scriptural support and compassion; but for congregation members, physical comfort may also be a consideration. It may not be the message that causes the congregation to be inattentive. This may simply be a matter of too little comfort. Providing ultimate seating comfort is what Church Chair Industries is all about. After all, 'Your Comfort is our business.TM'
With more than 40 years experience in the church seating industry, Church Chair® has been an innovator and leader in the design, manufacture and sale of American-Made church seating. Church Chair® was one of the first companies to address the need for flexible seating, and the company soon became the global leader in modular seating design in this market. Church Chair®'s flexible, stackable seating products allow congregations to take advantage of multi-purpose room applications, yet provide exceptional seating comfort during worship services and all other function areas found in today's churches. Our chairs are located throughout the entire 50 United States and 49 Foreign Countries. (View map at bottom of home page at www.churchchair.com.) Church Chair® truly serves the world in seating beauty, comfort, quality and value.TM
Designing seating to comfortably serve many objectives and conveniently stack when not in use is not an easy task, but it's one at which Church Chair® excels. In fact, awards and patents have been issued to the company for its innovative approach to chair design and construction (http://www.churchchair.com/church-chair-has-won-pr.php). Product design and testing are a continuous process. There any many imported chairs in the market today and the quality varies significantly. Purchasing a quality chair from our reputable company will help ensure your peace of mind. Our Expertise, Ethics & ExperienceTM continues our legacy as the Original Church ChairTM designer and manufacturer of quality, comfortable, durable, and elegant stackable seating.
Comfort is more than a 'buzz' word, it's key to long-term customer satisfaction. Church Chair® spends as much time evaluating the seating comfort of their new designs as they do in fabric review and selection. In addition to numerous patented steel and wood frame designs, building in durable comfort is one of the ways Church Chair® differentiates its quality American-Made seating from the other chair companies.
Comfort begins with the frame design. Church Chair® has found that to appeal to a range of human heights, the combined seat height and foam thickness should total about 18 inches. Less seat height or seat foam thickness causes uncomfortable pressure no matter the cushioning materials. Chairs with custom dimensions for special needs are easily fabricated to those desiring a custom fit chair, due to the fact that Church Chair® manufactures our chairs from start to finish in-house. http://www.churchchair.com/tour.php
Cushioning material selection is also important. Church Chair® works closely with suppliers to develop flexible polyurethane foam cushioning that provides the proper combination of support and surface comfort. Cushioning used for church seating is different than you'd find in household furniture. To provide seating for comfort over a period of hours requires much firmer foam than would be found in a sofa or upholstered living room chair. In fact, our exclusive cushioning is about three times firmer than that which would be used in the home. You also need to consider the support factor, which is the relationship of surface firmness to deep down support. Church Chair® cushioning has a minimum support factor of 1.9. That means that it takes about twice as much weight to compress the cushioning to half its height than required to compress the cushion surface. That extra amount of deep down support prevents "bottoming out" on the chair seat, eliminating the major cause of congregation discomfort. Church Chair® Foam is also manufactured from renewable resources. |
Sometimes the firmness of our chair cushions surprises customers. We recently compared a number of competitors' chairs with our own. We gathered initial comfort opinions and Church Chair® products were definitely firmer in initial comparisons. Then we tried sitting in each chair for an hour and the extra support found in Church Chair® products really paid off. Our chair testers reported that Church Chair® seating was by far the most comfortable after an extended time.
Along with frame design and cushioning selection, attention is also given to chair width. Church Chair® products range in width from 18 inches to 24 inches to accommodate a number of possible applications. Customers often buy the narrower 18-inch products for youth rooms and wider 20 to 24-inch for the main sanctuary, auditorium or special applications.
