The Journey Through Our Factory
At J&L Healthcare Furniture, we take pride in our craftsmanship and the quality of materials
we use to create furniture that meets the highest standards. Our factory journey reflects our
commitment to excellence at every stage, ensuring that each piece we create is functional,
durable, and stylish and manufactured in a sustainable manner.

1. Calibration with customer:
After our customer decides which product and finish they require our office staff
generate an unique order number which follows the order throughout the
manufacturing process this includes a barcoding system.
2. Sourcing Sustainable Materials locally:
We begin by locally sourcing Prime European Beech from sustainable sources,
ensuring that the timber we use supports responsible forestry practices and minimizes
our environmental impact.
3. Precision Machining:
Component parts are carefully machined by our craftsmen using cnc and traditional
methods to ensure precision and consistency. These components are then stacked and
prepared for the next step in the assembly process.
4. Crafting Strong Frames:
Our frames are constructed with dowelled mortice and tenon joints for strength and
durability. The braces are glued and screwed to ensure that the structure remains
sturdy and reliable for years to come. All our frames are made from solid beech
timber
5. Application of Lacquer Coats:
Each piece of furniture is coated with two layers of sealer and one layer of lacquer,
providing a smooth, protective finish that enhances the aesthetic appeal and increases
the longevity of the product.
6. Refining the Finish:
Before the final coat of lacquer is applied, the chairs are carefully de-nibbed to
ensure that the frames are perfectly smooth and free of imperfections, ensuring a
flawless finish.
7. Upholstery Preparation:
The fabrics selected for upholstery are sourced locally perched, measured, and
undergo random fire testing to meet all the necessary safety standards before being
used in the manufacturing process. Padding: All foam and padding used in our
furniture goes through the same process. We only use foam and fabric suitable for
healthcare environments.
8. Stitching and Covering:
Many of the upholstery covers are stitched by our qualified upholstery seamstress,
ensuring a high level of attention to detail and craftsmanship for a superior finish.
9. Final Inspection:
Before dispatch, each piece of furniture undergoes a final inspection to ensure it
meets our rigorous quality standards. Only those that pass this thorough check are
approved for delivery. At the end of production each product is stickered with a barcode unique to that piece which creates full traceability for everything that leaves
our factory.
10 Safe Delivery:
All furniture is delivered blanket-wrapped by our dedicated delivery team using
J&L drivers and vehicles to ensure it arrives in pristine condition, ready for
installation at your facility.
