Plastic Chairs: The Evolution of Sitting

Plastic is one of the greatest products invented that have a huge impact in almost all aspects of human life. From its early roots, plastic is now used in many products for commercial, industrial, and home use. Even hi-tech gadgets have plastic as one of their major components.

Before the invention of plastic, chairs are crafted from hardwood. Selecting the best type of wood was a process in itself; creating an actual chair was a craft. Although anybody with a bit of carpentry knowledge can create a chair, only a master craftsman would be able to build one that is sturdy, elegant, and functional.

This is one reason why furniture building had become an industry itself. It would take a number of months before a chair can be built. Only very few people with skills in carpentry could create durable and elegant chairs. There was even a time in history when furniture makers were admired because of their craftsmanship. With the invention of new tools and improvement of the production process, creating furniture for home and office use became quicker and more efficient. The invention of plastic, however, revolutionized the whole furniture-making industry.

Because of its flexibility, plastic has become the material of choice for many home and business furnishings. Chairs are easily molded and various designs are introduced. It is not uncommon today to see chairs that are really unique and pleasing to the eyes. With plastic, manufacturers are able to produce products of varying colors, textures, and designs.

Plastic can also complement other materials. It can be designed to blend well with wood, glass, stones, and other building materials. What is even more admirable about plastic is its durability. It can withstand any weather condition. Homeowners use plastic chairs and tables in their gardens because they don’t rot easily and are very adaptable to weather changes.

Many people also choose plastic chairs because of its practicality. They can be mounted one on top of the other for easier storage. Catering companies often use plastic chairs when they hold big events. Office designers prefer plastic furnishings because they can be easily transported and assembled.
