What is BIFMA certification and why does it matter for straight desks?

BIFMA (Business and Institutional Furniture Manufacturers Association) certification means the desk has been third-party tested to BIFMA X5.5, which includes 400-lb vertical surface load tests, 150-lb forward pull tests, and 100,000-cycle drawer tests. This is the definitive commercial quality standard. At OfficeFurniture2go.com, every desk we carry meets BIFMA standards — call 1-800-460-0858 for test documentation on any specific model.
