FIRA to host an Open Day on Thursday 16 February

Whilst everyone in the furniture trade may know of FIRA, not everyone understands the full extent of the organisation's activities and how they can help furniture retailers and manufacturers meet their business needs.

FIRA is holding a free Open Day on Thursday 16 February, at its Stevenage headquarters where visitors can explore the company, ask questions, tour the renowned test facilities and listen first hand to FIRA's extensive offering.

This Open Day, which will be held from 10.00 a.m. until 4.00 p.m., will include a number of informative presentations from FIRA experts:-

  • An introduction to FIRA
  •  
  • FIRA Certification Schemes including FIRA Gold, Innovation Award and Ergonomics Excellence
  •  
  • An Insight into Ergonomics - a fascinating presentation explaining the importance of ergonomic design.

  • Environmental Services - including information about the Furniture Industry Sustainability programme and carbon footprinting.
  •  
  • FIRA Service Technicians - provides an excellent insight into our customer service solution
  •  
  • The Furniture Ombudsman - a unique organisation which inspires consumer confidence.
  • The presentations are followed by a tour the FIRA testing facilities.  Lunch is also provided.

    This is an ideal opportunity to speak to an expert and visit FIRA, whatever your needs.

    FIRA Open Day's are planned throughout the year. Open Day's are also being held on 23 May and 4 October.
