Stacking & Folding Chairs
Stacking chairs are the perfect blend of comfort, portability and storage convenience. Foldable frames are durable when in use and compact when tucked away in a storage closet. Shop Staples for foldable chairs and make sure everyone has a place to sit at your next function, event or gathering.
What Are Folding Chairs?
Folding chairs have metal frames that expand and collapse in seconds, allowing hosts to set up and tear down a temporary seating area with ease. Despite being foldable, they offer solid support and typically hold between 250 and 400 pounds. Folding chairs are also an affordable solution to meetings and gatherings, since they’re inexpensive when purchased in bulk.
Designed to be constantly moved about, folding chairs often have quality powder-coat finishes that resist scratches and wear. Durable vinyl and woven upholstery fabrics repel stains and come in a variety of colors that match any office or home decor. These chairs can easily be maintained using all-purpose cleaners and degreasers to keep them clean.
Where Can Foldable Chairs Be Used?
Foldable chairs are great for anywhere you need an impromptu seating area. Use them at indoor and outdoor gatherings like religious events and services, club meetings, funerals, college graduations, sporting competitions, family gatherings and parties.
Foldable chairs usually serve as extra seating when permanent seating is not available or convenient. For example, schools often hold large events that require additional seating to make every guest comfortable. Consider having a few extra foldable chairs at the office or at home as patio furniture.
