Metal wood grain chairs: ideal for modern commercial spaces

When learning about the marketplace , have you ever noticed why the wood grain-look chairs placed in restaurant and cafe seem so lightweight? When you walk into these well-designed commercial spaces and see the neatly arranged chairs, you may be attracted by their natural and elegant wood grain design. But when you experience them for yourself, you may realize that these chairs weigh far less than traditional solid wood chairs. Why do chairs that look so similar weigh so much less? That's exactly what makes metal wood grain chairs so unique.

From the outside, there is little difference between metal wood grain chairs and traditional solid wood chairs, both seem to use the grain and touch of wood to give a natural, warm feeling. However, their weights are very different. In fact, the biggest difference between a metal wood grain chair and a solid wood chair is not just the similarity in appearance, but also the difference in materials and workmanship.

As a dealer, you can fulfill your customers' need for both beauty and practicality by recommending metal wood grain chairs to them. Not only do metal wood grain chairs retain the natural visual appeal and elegance of wooden chairs, their lightweight metal frames make them more suitable for high-frequency use in commercial environments. Compared to traditional solid wood chairs, metal wood grain chairs are not overly burdensome and can provide greater flexibility and convenience while reducing the hassle during transportation and placement. 

With the changing market demands and consumers' increasing demands for comfort and functionality, metal wood grain chairs are becoming the preferred choice for modern furniture design due to their lightweight, durable and environmentally friendly characteristics. This innovative combination of materials not only combines aesthetics and practicality, but also meets the need for efficient operations in commercial spaces. Next, let's delve into the differences between metal wood grain chairs and traditional solid wood chairs, and why it has become the ideal choice for commercial space design.

Which material is more durable, metal or wood?

Wooden chairs are usually very durable, but care needs to be taken when purchasing them to choose solid wood products over particle board that cannot afford to be used commercially. Solid wood chairs should be selected with a design that utilizes tongue and groove construction, which securely joins the parts of the chair by means of tightly fitted grooves and ridges. Additionally, structures with extra metal supports can provide extra stability and prevent the legs and backrest from loosening over time.

Despite the durability of well-crafted solid wood chairs, metal restaurant chairs have the advantage in terms of overall durability. Often featuring all-welded joints and sturdy steel construction, metal chairs have a non-porous design that can withstand higher stresses, providing greater strength and a longer lifespan.

Is a metal or wooden chair more comfortable?

Metal and wood are both hard materials, so they do not provide the soft support that a featherbed does. However, through proper design and the addition of upholstery, the issue of comfort can be effectively addressed. Metal and wooden chairs usually come with an upholstered seat, and choosing a suitable upholstery is particularly important. There are many types of seat cushions available on the market today, with memory foam cushions being popular for their comfort and practicality. Not only is this material reasonably priced, but it also lasts a long time.

Memory foam seat cushions have other significant advantages. For example, they provide good support for the back and relieve pressure on the spine. The combination of a chair's curved backrest and a high-quality seat cushion not only helps the user to maintain a healthy sitting posture, but also follows the popular trend of ergonomic design in recent years. By providing scientific support, the memory foam seat cushion can significantly enhance the user's comfort.

What's more, a good seat cushion can also have a positive impact on health and lifestyle. A well-supported seat helps relieve back strain, which helps people stay energized and even inspires them to engage in more physical activity, creating a healthy “snowball effect”. At the same time, having enough energy improves productivity and makes work and life more enjoyable.

Does metal or wood require more maintenance?

Wooden furniture usually requires regular cleaning and occasional polishing to keep it looking its best. Especially if the wooden furniture is lacquered, the lacquer may become scratched or peeled off as it is used over time, and then it needs to be re-lacquered. In addition, solid wood chairs are prone to bursting or loosening after a long period of use due to the use of mortise and tenon joints and thermal expansion and contraction. Therefore, regular inspection and maintenance is required to ensure that the chair is stable and long-lasting use.

In contrast, metal furniture is much easier to maintain. Apart from regular cleaning to remove dust and stains, little additional maintenance is required. Metal furniture is designed with no welded holes, so simply wiping with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution will easily remove stains and maintain the chair's appearance. In addition, the metal chairs themselves are made of a sturdy material that doesn't chip or scratch easily, making them relatively durable and easy to maintain for long-term use.

Are metal or wooden chairs more expensive?

Overall, wood furniture is usually more expensive than metal furniture due to the cost of the wood, the complexity of the process, and the higher cost of the labor required to make it. In contrast, metal wood grain chairs are only 50-60% of the price of a solid wood chair of the same quality, providing you with more business opportunities, and metal wood grain chairs with the look of solid wood can help you secure potential orders when your guests think solid wood chairs are overpriced.

So why not use metal wood grain chairs made by Yumeya? With the look and feel of solid wood and the durability and sturdiness of metal, they are suitable for high-frequency use in commercial environments.

To ensure the quality of each metal wood grain chair, we use advanced manufacturing processes:

Manufacture of metal frameworks: Our metal frames are fabricated by robotic welding imported from Japan, with strict control of welding quality. Every detail in the welding process is crucial, and any error over 3mm will stop production. The standardized manufacturing process ensures that the welds are uniform and the precision of details is crucial.

Spraying process: We cooperate with the world famous powder coating brand Tiger, using high quality Tiger primer for spraying, which not only ensures the surface is clean and smooth, but also greatly improves the adhesion of the wood grain sticker, making the wood grain effect more perfect, and the durability is more than 3 times of similar products in the market.

Cutting technology: In order to ensure that the texture of each wood grain sticker is accurate, we use the PCM machine cutting system independently developed by the team. This machine cutting technology reduces the error in manual cutting, making each piece of woodgrain paper can be cut accurately according to the special mold, ensuring that the fit of woodgrain paper to the frame reaches 1:1, perfect and seamless.

The imitation solid wood design makes our wood grain paper production process also strictly follow the process of solid wood furniture. Similar to traditional solid wood panel splicing, the texture effect of wood grain paper shows a natural variation of mountain and straight grain. Solid wood panels are usually spliced by combining multiple small sections to form a large panel, and in order to maximize the use of wood, we will cut the wood grain paper according to the grain and shape of the wood, which is why some parts of the chair may have both mountain and straight grain. This design not only preserves the natural beauty of solid wood furniture, but also takes full advantage of the modern manufacturing process, which not only enhances the visual effect of the furniture, but also greatly enhances the durability and practicality of the product.

Sticker binding: The process of sticker binding does not rely on particularly skilled manual techniques, but rather on strict control of the details of each process. Each layer of stickers ensures a tight fit with the chair frame, avoiding any wrinkles and bubbles, ensuring the final effect is exquisite and perfect.

Heat transfer technology: High-precision heat transfer technology is used and engineers precisely control the oven temperature. Too high or too low temperature will cause the wood grain effect to be blurred or unclear, and may even affect the appearance of the whole chair. Through precise temperature control technology, we ensure that every wood grain detail is perfectly rendered, bringing visual comfort to every user.

Through these advanced manufacturing processes, the Metal Wood Grain Chair is not only close to solid wood furniture in appearance and touch, but also has the robustness and durability of metal furniture, and is able to cope with the demands of high-frequency use in commercial environments over a long period of time.
