A component factory, not a chair brand

Who we are

We are based in Yiqiao Town, Xiaoshan District, Hangzhou — about half an hour from Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport, which is the practical reason a lot of our export cartons reach a port quickly. Our group company, Hangzhou Zhongtai Industrial Group Co., Ltd., is one of China’s larger makers of chair seat-plate mechanisms.

A note on our founding year, because we would rather you hear it from us: our group materials cite 1994, while the public business registry shows an incorporation date in 2000. Both are true depending on which entity you count from. What is not in dispute is the track record since: ISO 9001 certification from 2002, ISO 14001 from 2006, recognition as a National High-Tech Enterprise in 2009, and a provincial-level technical centre in 2010.

We run three connected lines of work: chair mechanisms (seven series of seat-plate and tilt mechanisms), five-star bases (five series in aluminium, nylon and steel), and an appliance-components division that stamps and welds metal parts for washing machines and other white goods. The appliance work is not a sideline — it is what keeps our press shop and tooling discipline sharp, and that discipline is exactly what a chair factory wants in a mechanism supplier.

What we are honest about

We sell to chair factories, importers and furniture groups — not to end users, and not under our own consumer brand. If you are a sourcing or product engineer comparing mechanism suppliers, that is who this site is written for. Several specifications on these pages are representative figures from common orders; the exact load rating, tolerance and finish for your part are confirmed against your drawing and your BIFMA target before we cut a tool. Where we have a real certificate, we name it. Where a part is built to a standard but not separately certified, we say "tested to BIFMA standards — report available" rather than implying a stamp we do not hold.
