«Tested to EN 1335» is a sentence anyone can print. Luxy publishes the report behind it: CATAS 101544, on model 26040, listing nine tests one by one — dimensions to EN 1335-1, general safety requirements and instructions for use to EN 1335-2, then, to EN 1335-3, seat and backrest fatigue, armrest fatigue, static armrest load, stability, castor fatigue and rolling resistance.
For anyone writing a specification, that list is the difference between a claim and a document: each line is a clause you can quote. Nulite, Luxy's executive chair range, is designed by Luxy R&D, comes in mesh, thermoformed and padded series, and runs to 21 catalogue models.
Send the clause you need to satisfy and we will match it line by line: La Mercanti requests the documents from Luxy before quoting.
