There is an increasing number of furniture products sold in the domestic and contract markets that are designed using ‘off-the-shelf’ electrical components to enhance features beyond those normally considered important for furniture (strength, durability and comfort). As such it is imperative that the furniture industry has reliable access to information to ensure compliance and of course safety for the end-users.
By incorporating these features into the completed product, furniture manufacturers need to ensure their furniture complies with any applicable UK Regulations and understand UKCA marking of the completed product and that of the individual components used.
