It’s been a while — here’s what you’ve been missing

You're in good company

Ready to get back up to speed?

Membership is open to all companies within, or with an interest in, the furniture and furnishings industry — across retailer, manufacturer, non-manufacturer, associate and international categories.

Manufacturers membership

A retailer asks for evidence part-way through an order — compliance certificates, test data, carbon figures — and wants it now. FIRA members have the proof ready before the question lands.

Priced fairly by company turnover — so a small manufacturer and a national leader both pay their fair share, not the same rate.

Retailer membership

When a product on the shelf fails a safety check, the manufacturer isn’t always the one who answers for it. Often, it’s the retailer. FIRA membership closes that gap before it opens.

Membership is priced proportionately to turnover and stays broadly consistent from the smallest to the largest members, so cost scales predictably as your business grows. (* Prices shown correct as of 01 August 2026).

Nobody expects you to know everything alone. But “We didn’t know” is no defence.
