What does BIFMA certified mean for an office chair?

BIFMA (Business and Institutional Furniture Manufacturers Association) certification means the chair has passed BIFMA X5.1 structural and durability tests — seating durability of 100,000–250,000 cycles, backrest strength tests, and stability tests. BIFMA certification indicates commercial-grade construction for multi-user, all-day seating in office environments.
