New US Furniture standard published

The US standards making body ANSI has collaborated with US office Furniture manufacturers association BIFMA to publish a new standard for seating:

The standard is intended to provide manufacturers, specifiers, and users with a common basis for evaluating the safety, durability, and structural performance of occasional-use seating such those normally used in indoor spaces such as waiting, reception, or gathering areas.
