For the last 60 years, Race Furniture have been designing and manufacturing quality seating. The design lead approach to projects establish by British post-war furniture designer, Ernest Race, has continued from the companies inception to present day.
In addition to this design lead approach to manufacturing, product quality has been always been an essential part of our company ethos and a key contributor to our longevity. This in particular is an area that we feel our British manufactured stacking chairs win out over products imported into the UK.
