It was a pleasure to manufacture furniture for one of the best known concert halls.
On first appearance the items supplied are standard products. However, specific requirements had to be met including:
- Half-hour fire rated intumescent coating to the wooden seat part.
- Custom metallic gold powder coated finish.
The design was based on the Rigg Grafik Seating Bench. The model features 30mm square heavy gauge steel tube, welded to form a rigid frame.
The seat is of 40mm thick solid timber, stained dark brown.
Making bespoke commercial furniture such as the auditorium benches shown here is one aspect of Rigg production. Many standard models are also produced at the Birmingham factory, using a wide range of materials and technicques.
