Excerpt
Excerpt: Furniture Manufacturing includes establishments that produce articles such as chairs, beds, mattresses, dressers, tables and desks for human comfort, convenience and utility. Processes used in the manufacture of furniture include the cutting, bending, molding, laminating and assembly of such materials as wood, metal, glass, plastics, and rattan. In addition, design and fashion trends play an important part in the production of furniture. The production process for furniture is not solely bending metal, cutting and shaping wood, or extruding and molding plastic. The integrated design of the article for esthetic qualities, and to carry out its function efficiently, is also a major part of the process of manufacturing furniture, though design services are also sometimes purchased by furniture manufacturers from industrial designers.
