Plastic stacking chair built for canteens, welfare units and conference seating wherever furniture needs to be practical, easy to clean and quick to store away. The polypropylene seat and back wipe clean in seconds, while the powder coated steel frame handles the daily wear of a busy break room or mess area. Its stackable design makes it just as suited to conference chairs and flexible meeting room seating as it is to a permanent canteen setup.
How the stackable design keeps welfare spaces flexible
A fixed or bulky chair takes up valuable floor space in a canteen or welfare unit where the same room often needs to serve multiple purposes throughout the day. Storing and clearing that furniture between uses becomes a genuine hassle when chairs can't be stacked or moved easily. This plastic stacking chair solves that by stacking compactly for storage, so the same canteen chairs used at lunch can be cleared for a toolbox talk or site induction later the same day.
Key Features
-
Polypropylene seat and back: Wipes clean quickly, keeping the chair hygienic in a canteen or break room where spills and daily use are constant.
-
Powder coated steel frame: Resists corrosion and daily wear better than an untreated frame, holding up to repeated stacking and moving.
-
Stackable design: Stores compactly between uses, freeing up floor space in canteens, welfare units and conference rooms.
-
Lightweight construction: Easy for one person to lift, move and set up without needing extra hands.
-
Four leg tubular frame: Provides stable, reliable support across regular daily use.
-
Multiple colour options: Suits a range of canteen, break room and conference room settings.

Who is this for
This chair is specified by facilities managers and site welfare operators furnishing canteens, break rooms and mess areas across UK construction and facilities projects. It's equally suited to conference and meeting room seating where flexible, easy to store chairs are needed between uses. Event and hire companies also use it for its stackable, lightweight design when setting up and clearing temporary seating.
Typical applications
-
Furnishing site canteens, break rooms and welfare units with practical, easy clean seating.
-
Providing flexible conference chairs and meeting room seating that needs to be cleared between uses.
-
Supporting temporary seating setups for site inductions, toolbox talks and briefings.
-
Furnishing community halls and event spaces with stackable, easy to store chairs.
-
General facilities seating in staff break rooms and communal areas.
How to use
Step 1: Position the chair on a level, stable surface before use.
Step 2: Check the frame and seat fixings periodically, particularly if chairs are moved or stacked often.
Step 3: When stacking, align each chair evenly on top of the last to keep the stack stable.
Step 4: Avoid building a stack higher than feels secure for the storage space.
Step 5: Wipe the seat and back clean after use, particularly in canteen or break room settings.
Common mistakes
-
Stacking chairs unevenly, which can make the stack unstable and prone to toppling.
-
Leaving chairs stacked outdoors in wet weather, which can affect the frame's powder coated finish over time.
-
Dragging chairs across rough flooring instead of lifting, which can loosen the frame joints faster.
-
Using the chair as a step or platform, which it isn't designed for.
Safety
Position chairs on level, stable flooring before use, and avoid building a stack higher than feels secure. The chair isn't designed as a step or platform and shouldn't be stood on. Check the frame periodically for loose joints or fixings, particularly where chairs are stacked and moved frequently.
Maintenance
Wipe the polypropylene seat and back with a damp cloth to keep the surface clean and hygienic. Check the steel frame periodically for loose fittings or coating damage. Store stacked chairs in a dry area to protect the powder coated finish from corrosion.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this chair suitable for continuous daily use in a busy canteen?
A: Yes, the powder coated steel frame and polypropylene seat are built for repeated daily use in canteens, break rooms and welfare units. The wipeable surface makes it easy to keep clean between shifts, and the frame construction is designed to handle regular stacking and moving without loosening.
Q: What is the chair made from, and is there a UK standard it meets?
A: The seat and back are moulded polypropylene, and the frame is powder coated steel for corrosion resistance. There's no confirmed contract seating certification for this specific chair, so if BS EN 15373 compliance is required for your project, check with CMT Group before ordering.
Q: What is this chair NOT suitable for?
A: This chair isn't designed for permanent outdoor exposure, since prolonged weather contact can affect the frame's coating and the seat's finish over time. It also isn't intended as a step, platform or heavy industrial workshop seat. For continuous outdoor use, a weatherproof alternative is the better choice.
Q: Why choose a plastic stacking chair over an upholstered chair for canteen seating?
A: Polypropylene seats wipe clean in seconds, which matters in a canteen or break room where spills happen daily. Upholstered chairs absorb moisture and stains and are far harder to keep hygienic in that environment. The steel frame also handles frequent stacking and moving better than most upholstered alternatives.
Q: Can this chair be used for conference or meeting room seating as well as canteens?
A: Yes, the same lightweight, stackable design works well as a conference chair or meeting room seat, particularly where furniture needs to be set up and cleared away between uses. It suits any setting needing flexible, easy to store seating rather than fixed furniture.
Q: How do I keep the chair clean and in good condition?
A: Wipe the polypropylene seat and back down with a damp cloth after use. Check the frame periodically for loose fittings, particularly if the chairs are stacked and moved often. Store stacked chairs in a dry area to protect the powder coated finish.
