Frequently Asked Questions
When was the folding chair invented?
Philip E.G. Harrison patented the first truly modern folding chair in 1931. His chair featured a metal frame with a fabric seat and back; we’d recognize his invention today as a party chair. But his design was fairly complex, making mass production difficult.
How much weight does a folding chair hold?
The usual weight limit of plastic fold-up chairs ranges from 220 to 650 lbs and can surprisingly take up to 800 lbs.
What are metal folding chairs made of?
The materials used for metal folding chairs are usually either aluminum or steel. This is because aluminum is lightweight and more resistant to rusting and corrosion than any other metal. While folding chairs made from steel tend to be less expensive, more heat resistant, and able to support heavier loads.
Who invented the chair?
