FIRA School Furniture Certification Scheme

FIRA School Furniture Certification Scheme

Introduced in 2008, the FIRA School Furniture Certification Scheme builds on FIRA’s existing programmes for products and services, which are awarded where standards are surpassed. This is the first such scheme for furniture for educational institutions, and includes ergonomic, technical and sustainability factors which far exceed existing standards.

The FIRA Ergonomics Unit has worked with the Department of Education since 1970 and has undertaken two major studies measuring children in 1971 and 2001. The most recent study was used in the development of the latest British and European furniture standards for educational institutions, and FIRA experts represent the UK on all European educational furniture standards committees.

FIRA’s educational furniture experts are committed to the development of healthier, more versatile environments which are conducive to learning and meet the future needs of educational establishments.

FIRA has always believed that carefully selected furniture and equipment will produce effective working environments which in turn will help deliver key organisational objectives, and this applies as much to the education sector as it does to efficiencies within commercial organisations.

The FIRA Certification Scheme: School Furniture is obtained by suppliers and manufacturers and requested by specifiers and purchasers to make informed decisions.
