Williams Jet Tenders: Refurbished Chairs for a New HQ

Williams Jet Tenders builds boats for some of the most protected waters in the world and set out to expand its HQ with as little waste as possible. It furnished the new space with refurbished designer task chairs from Coggin SOS, and came back for ten more in 2026.

The situation

What Williams Jet Tenders needed

The new HQ space was being built to cut construction waste, with sustainable materials specified throughout.

The furniture had to meet the same standard, and the team wanted chairs a design-led business would be proud of.

What we did

How the project ran

  1. We supplied refurbished designer task chairs from stock, each one stripped, rebuilt and finished to as-new condition.
  2. The chairs were delivered to the new offices at Williams' HQ.
  3. In 2026 the company came back for a further ten refurbished Orangebox Do chairs.

The result

What it came to

A client that judges finish for a living could not tell the chairs from new, and reordered three years later.

The original 2023 order predates our current records, so this page carries the client's own words and no figures. The 2026 repeat order is on our invoice.

In their words
“After hearing about Coggin, we immediately knew they were the right partner to help furnish our new offices. We saved significant costs on a designer task chair, which was intercepted on the way to landfill, and impeccably refurbished to the point we couldn’t believe it wasn’t brand new! But more than saving costs, amazing customer service and inspirational design; you get a warm feeling that you’ve had a positive impact on the environment – there is no substitute for this.”
