In 2024, a French educational equipment distributor partnered with MEI YI Furniture to supply 500 sets of customized student desks and chairs for several newly built schools in the south of France. The client sought a professional furniture manufacturer capable of delivering ergonomic, durable, and eco-friendly products that meet European safety and design standards within a tight project schedule.
With over 16 years of experience in OEM & ODM furniture manufacturing, MEI YI Furniture successfully delivered a complete solution — from design concept and sample development to mass production, inspection, and on-time shipment.
1. Project Background
The client was a long-term supplier to local educational institutions and government-funded schools in France. Facing a major renovation project involving multiple campuses, they required uniformly designed student desks and chairs that were safe, space-efficient, and matched the modern learning environment aesthetic.
Key requirements included:
-
500 full desk-and-chair sets delivered within 45 days.
-
Compliance with E1-grade environmental standards.
-
Modern, minimalistic design suited for European classroom interiors.
-
Long-lasting structure to withstand daily use by students.
After several virtual meetings and material discussions, the French client confirmed cooperation with MEI YI Furniture for their proven ability in customized furniture production and quality control.
2. Design & Customization Process
Our design team collaborated closely with the client’s project manager to develop a functional yet elegant school furniture design that met both aesthetic and ergonomic standards.
-
Provided 3D renderings and CAD drawings for client approval.
-
Customized desk dimensions and height options to accommodate students of different ages.
-
Used powder-coated steel frames and E1-grade laminated wood tops for durability and easy maintenance.
-
Implemented rounded corners and anti-slip feet for added safety.
Throughout the process, all prototypes were reviewed via video conferences, ensuring seamless communication and real-time feedback.
3. Production & Quality Control
Production took place at MEI YI’s 25,000 m² ISO- and FSC-certified facility, equipped with 10 advanced production lines.
Each production stage underwent rigorous quality inspection, including:
-
Material testing for density and surface strength.
-
Paint adhesion and stability checks under temperature variation.
-
Assembly tests to ensure stability and ergonomic performance.
Before shipment, our QC team conducted final full inspections and provided photo and video documentation for client confirmation.
4. Delivery & Results
The order was completed five days ahead of schedule and shipped securely to the client’s logistics partner in Le Havre, France. Upon installation, the client reported excellent satisfaction with the overall product quality and delivery efficiency.
The furniture was praised for:
-
Smooth surface finish and comfortable seating experience.
-
Easy assembly and maintenance.
-
Consistent product quality across all 500 sets.
Following the success of this project, MEI YI Furniture and the client established a long-term partnership, expanding cooperation into teacher office furniture and canteen tables and chairs.
