How Do I Choose The Right Size Canteen Furniture?

When planning the layout and furniture for a canteen, consider comfort levels and the number of people it needs to accommodate.

For Larger Groups (60-100 People)

In this scenario, opting for a canteen table and bench system like our Disc canteen table is both ergonomic and practical. These setups are easier to maintain, clean, and keep tidy, making them ideal for large groups.

If you’re a large business owner, our range of industrial canteen furniture or office canteen furniture is ideal.

For Medium-Sized Groups (30-60 People)

If comfort is a higher priority and the group size is moderately large, long tables with canteen chairs are a better fit. These tables can comfortably seat up to 12 people.

The use of individual chairs rather than benches offers more personal space and also allows for more flexibility in rearranging the office seating if needed.

For Smaller Groups (20-30 People)

In smaller canteens, round tables seating 4-5 people are an excellent choice. Round canteen tables like our Inox table foster a more sociable environment, encouraging interaction and conversation.

They are particularly well-suited as school dining furniture as they can be easily placed without taking up too much space. Their shape naturally creates a more communal dining experience.

What Should I Consider When Purchasing Canteen Furniture?

When purchasing office canteen furniture, there are several key factors to consider:

Space and Layout: Assess the size and shape of your canteen area. Consider how much space you have and how best to utilise it. The layout should allow for easy movement and comfortable seating without feeling cramped.
Durability and Quality: Office canteen furniture often sees heavy use, so it's important to choose items that are built to last. Look for high-quality materials and sturdy construction.
Ease of Cleaning and Maintenance: Given the nature of a dining area, spills and stains are inevitable. Choose furniture that is easy to clean and maintain. Surfaces should be wipeable and resistant to stains.
Comfort: Comfortable seating is crucial, especially if people will be sitting for extended periods. Our Soft-Bench is ergonomically designed with padded seating for extra comfort, and is one of many suitable options among our canteen seating furniture range.
Functionality: Think about the specific needs of your office canteen. Do you need stackable chairs for easy storage? Do you require large tables for group seating like our JB-Waldo, or would smaller tables be more suitable?
