The answer is: it depends on the supplier of the chair. There are cross back chairs on the market that are not stackable so potential buyers of these chairs – where stacking is a need or want for them – should double check that the chair they’re buying can stack.

Most suppliers will explicitly say that a chair is or isn’t stackable on their cross back chair product page – however some may have forgotten that detail.

The easiest way to tell if a cross back chair is stackable is by looking at the seat in the back corners. There should be a semi-circular notch out in each corner – where the stacking cross-back chair’s legs would nest.

There are a number of different folding tables on the market for hotels, banquet halls, party rental companies and other high-turnover industries where durable tables are not only a must, but a necessity. Today’s blog post will examine two kinds of folding tables that are often mistaken as being the same material – ABS Folding Tables vs Plastic Folding Tables. This post will give an unbiased look at the specifications of the two so that a company can choose what best meets their needs. Read on to learn more:

Our NES Reliable White Resin Folding Chairs are our most popular selling chair in inventory. And with good reason – they’re just a little more expensive to rent out than a plastic folding chair but lend way more elegance to an event.

Within the past few years, we’ve started seeing a shift towards consumers spending more money on children’s events. Then we started getting asked for more children sized event equipment.

I’m pleased to announce that we now have Children’s White Resin Folding Chairs in stock in our Mississauga warehouse.

NES Reliable Children’s White Resin Folding Chairs are easy to set-up and take-down, and stack away neatly when they are no longer needed. These chairs are weather-proof, and won't yellow with age. They are stain resistant and easy to clean when the event is over and these chairs will never need a paint touch-up. Capable of holding up to 195lbs.

We have been selling our NES Reliable Plastic Folding Tables for over 10 years – same supplier, same specifications. We know our tables aren’t the cheapest on the market, but we know that they perform well, and allow the companies that use them to get their money’s worth out of them. They’re strong durable tables that work for most party rental companies, golf courses, catering companies and event venues that favour plastic over wood tables. But, there still exists the gold standard for folding tables – considered the strongest, most durable tables on the market: the ABS Folding Table.

These tables are the gold standard because they’re used most in high-use/high-turnover establishments. The ABS plastic is very structurally sturdy which gives the table the ability to stand up well to external impacts.
