Office Furniture from China for Offices, Developers and Hotels
Office projects have the same challenge as hotels: dozens or hundreds of identical pieces that must arrive complete, match the design and be installed on a tight date. Chinify sources office furniture from specialised factories in Foshan, China for corporate offices, developers fitting out office buildings, co-working spaces, and hotel business centres and back offices.
What we make
- Workstations: open-plan benches and clusters, with screens, cable management and pedestals
- Executive and private offices: desks, returns, credenzas and bookcases in veneer, lacquer or laminate
- Seating: task chairs, executive chairs, meeting and visitor chairs, lounge seating for breakout areas
- Meeting and training rooms: conference tables with power and data, training tables, presentation units
- Storage: filing cabinets, lockers, tall storage and shelving
- Reception and breakout: reception counters, sofas, café tables and acoustic booths
What to specify in office furniture
| Element | What we specify |
|---|---|
| Desk and workstation panels | Board type and thickness, edge banding, surface (melamine, laminate, veneer or lacquer) and low-emission board where required |
| Frames and legs | Steel profile, powder-coat colour and levelling feet; height-adjustable frames where needed |
| Cable management | Grommets, cable trays, vertical cable risers and power or data modules to suit your country’s plugs |
| Office chairs | Mechanism, gas lift, base, castors for your floor type, mesh or fabric, and adjustments (seat depth, lumbar, armrests); test reports to standards such as BIFMA or EN can be requested from the factory |
| Storage | Locks, drawer runners, anti-tip features and keying systems |
Workstations and storage usually ship flat-packed, which uses container space efficiently. Executive desks, conference tables and upholstered seating are packed assembled or partly assembled, depending on size.
How an office project works
- Brief: floor plans or a furniture list, number of workstations, finishes, budget and move-in date.
- Specification and FOB quotation: each item specified and priced, with options for different budgets.
- Samples: a sample workstation and each chair model, to check build quality, comfort and finishes.
- Production and three-stage QC: materials, in-production and pre-shipment inspections with photos.
- Packing and loading: flat-pack cartons labelled by item and floor, with assembly instructions for your installer.
Payment, inspection and shipping are explained on how we work.
MOQ and lead times
- Standard models: from 5 to 10 pieces per model, about 30 to 45 days of production.
- Custom models: usually 20 to 50 pieces per model, about 45 to 75 days after sample approval.
- Samples: about 2 to 3 weeks for a standard model with changes, 3 to 6 weeks for a new design.

Frequently asked questions
Can you supply a whole office floor?
Yes. We can supply workstations, private offices, meeting rooms, storage, reception and breakout furniture together, consolidated in the same containers. Send us the floor plan or a furniture list to start.
Can the power and data modules match our country’s plugs?
Yes. Tell us the country and the plug and socket type when you send the brief, and we specify the modules accordingly. Electrical components may also need local certification, which your importer should confirm before ordering.
Are office chairs tested to BIFMA or EN standards?
Some factories test their chairs to standards such as BIFMA or EN and can provide the reports. If your project requires a specific standard, tell us at the start so we only quote models that have the reports.
Is office furniture shipped assembled?
Workstations, desks and storage usually ship flat-packed to save container space, with assembly instructions. Chairs, sofas and large tables are shipped assembled or partly assembled depending on size.
