% shares

World production of office seating amounts to USD 15 billion in 2023, and it is almost stable compared to last year. According to CSIL, the leading manufacturers of office chairs worldwide are China, the United States, Germany, India, and Japan.

The contamination between spaces of work and residential contexts is a trend that was already in progress but has gone through rapid acceleration over the last years, with repercussions on the design of spaces and products. The potential market for office seating manufacturers expanded to the home office, where they are expected to have considerable opportunities.

In fact, the weight of office seating in the total office furniture business increased significantly over the last few years. Today, office seating represents 30% of the world production (28% in 2018).
