Innovation in Lounge Seating

Sponsored content by INTEGRA SEATING

Integra's high-quality lounge furniture is beautifully designed with unsurpassed strength and durability and offers a lifetime warranty even in these 24/7 areas. Integra designs some of the most innovative and functional features for lounge furniture because lounge furniture is their focus. Integra’s tablet arm can be added to any of their lounge seating and is a student favorite for its function and a maintenance personnel favorite because of its durability and strength; it is ultra-durable, passing a 300-lb. drop test.

Other functional options for today’s students are cup holders, shelves, power options and high-back modular seating, creating more private lounge spaces.

One of the newest and most innovative options for Integra’s lounge seating is their patent-pending Hide & Go Mobility; it is beautifully concealed mobility for lounge seating. This leg option preserves the design of the chair while providing a stronger, more solid foundation for chair mobility than standard casters. This greatly refined product for ease of movement is available on most Integra lounge seating. It works well on hard surfaces and carpeting, and chairs do not slide upon entering or exiting. Mobile lounge seating has never looked so good or been so durable.
