An airport restaurant never closes, never has a slow season, and gets its chairs pushed by people dragging roller bags. On top of that, everything has to come through a badged loading dock on a schedule set by the airport, not by the contractor. It is a specialty, and we have been doing it since 2012.
Designform supplies airport concessionaires and their designers directly — HMSHost, OTG, Paradies Lagardère, SSP America and Delaware North among them.
Concourse restaurant and bar seating
Bar and counter stools for the concourse-facing rail, side chairs and arm chairs for the dining room, all on welded commercial frames with replaceable seats.

Frequently asked questions
Can you meet airport delivery and badging requirements?
We ship to the concessionaire’s or installer’s schedule and staging location. Your rep coordinates dates with whoever holds the badge.
Do you offer bolt-down seating for concourse common areas?
Yes — bolt-down chairs, stools and cast-iron bases are standard options.
What finishes hold up in an airport?
Welded steel frames with commercial powder coat, Compact Laminate and solid-wood tops, and vinyls rated for heavy public use. Your rep can pull the test data for a specific spec.
