Office Reception Sofas

Reception sofas can vary greatly in size and shape so it is important to know how much available space there is for any new furniture especially if the space is awkwardly shaped.

1. Start by measuring the space and decide where best to add a new sofa.
2. Most two seater sofas are around 160 cm in length and a three seater is around 200-220 cm.
3. Try not to cram in the sofa to a small space and alway leave a 20-30 cm space at each end.
4. Make sure leave a 30 cm space between any wall heaters
5. Avoid plug sockets that need to be accessed on a regular bases.

If you need more seating but don't have the space use stools and narrow high tables which can also be used as a place to work. Adding multiple pieces of furniture like this where you can use different colours can give the space a more designer look.

Like most businesses you will grow over time and will probably move offices several times and every office reception area is different.

1. The main benefit of modular reception sofas is it can be changed to fit each reception area by removing or adding sofa sections.
2. The second benefit is that if one section is damaged or stained it can easily be replaced without having to throw out a whole sofa.
3. Modular sofa are usually only made for the office market for this reason so are made to withstand this type of hard-wearing environment.

To maintain your office sofa effectively, simply follow this guide:

1. Vacuum Regularly: Use a soft brush attachment to gently vacuum the sofa. This helps in removing dust and small debris, which can wear down the fabric over time.
2. Immediate Spill Response: If there's a spill, act fast! Blot the spill with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid rubbing as it can push the spill deeper into the fabric.
3. Use Appropriate Cleaners: Check the sofa's care label for cleaning instructions. Use a mild detergent or a cleaner recommended for the specific upholstery. Test any cleaner on a small, inconspicuous area first.
4. Avoid Sunlight and Heat: Continuous exposure to sunlight can fade the fabric. Try to position your sofa away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
5. Professional Cleaning: Consider getting your sofa professionally cleaned once a year for thorough maintenance.

The lifespan of an office sofa varies significantly, typically ranging from 7 to 10 years. This duration is influenced by factors such as the frequency of use and the quality of the sofa.

The material and construction quality is pivotal in determining longevity; for example, leather sofas may last longer but require specific care, whereas fabric sofas are easier to clean but may wear out more quickly.

The key to extending your sofa's life lies in proper maintenance. Regular cleaning, avoiding excessive weight, and shielding the sofa from extreme conditions can significantly prolong its usability.
