What are ANSI/BIFMA tests?
To determine the durability of commercial furniture in daily use, tests were developed by the Business and Institutional Furniture Manufacturer’s Association (BIFMA) and approved by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). Products meeting ANSI/BIFMA standards have been thoroughly tested to ensure they will give the service you expect. Look for the ANSI/BIFMA designation.
These are specific stress tests which were developed by an industry leader (Business and Institutional Furniture Manufacturer’s Association) and approved by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). Office furniture products that carry these labels have been tested thoroughly and you can be sure that they will give you the durability and stamina that you expect over time.
