As businesses increasingly recognise the importance of sustainability and cost-effectiveness, the demand for office chair refurbishment, repair, and reupholstery has grown exponentially. Instead of discarding office seating that shows signs of wear and tear, consider refurbishing them to save costs and contribute to a greener business approach. Our company offers a comprehensive, step-by-step office seating refurbishment service that will breathe new life into your workspace.


Step 1: Detailed Office Chair Analysis

Our refurbishment process begins with a thorough inspection of your office seating. Our experts meticulously check all components, including levers, toggles, seat slides, and height and backrest adjustment mechanisms. This in-depth analysis ensures we identify all areas that require our professional chair repair services.


Step 2: Chair Dismantling and Part Replacement

Next, we disassemble the office chairs, safely removing seat and back pads. We replace any damaged screws or bolts with new, high-quality parts, ensuring the structural integrity and longevity of your refurbished office seating.


Step 3: Deep Cleaning and Chair Revitalisation

Our chair refurbishment services include an intensive deep-cleaning process for every chair. We also replace castors and lubricate the gas strut for a smoother operation. If the gas strut is faulty, it's replaced to guarantee a flawless performance, upholding our commitment to top-tier office seating repair.

Step 4: Eco-friendly Reupholstery

We then focus on the visual appeal of your office chairs. Our reupholstery services utilise durable, quality materials. We aim to overlay the original fabric to minimise waste, reinforcing our commitment to sustainable practices. If the existing fabric is damaged, we proceed with complete reupholstery.


Step 5: Chair Reassembly and Product Detailing

Following the refurbishment and repair process, we carefully reassemble the office seating to meet safety and ergonomic standards. Warranty and product specification stickers are applied for easy reference.


Step 6: Quality Assurance

Our office seating refurbishment service concludes with a rigorous quality check and functionality test. Each refurbished chair must meet our stringent quality criteria before being packaged, ready for its return to your office.

One Size Doesn't Fit All: The Benefits of Resizing and Repurposing Office Desks

By Ida Gorecka • September 8, 2025
Your office transformation is approved. Budget's signed off. New layout's finalised. There's just one problem: those 1600mm executive desks that worked perfectly in the old corner offices are now 400mm too wide for your new collaborative pods. The reception desk you spent £3,000 on last year? It's the wrong height entirely for your rebrand. Most facilities managers would see this as a disposal problem. Skip hire , landfill tax , 12-week lead times for replacements. But what if that's completely backwards? What if the furniture that doesn't fit isn't a problem to solve, but an asset to unlock? Every year in the UK, around 1.2 million desks and 1.8 million office chairs are sent to landfill and only 14 % of them are being reused (Source: WRAP , Lancashire Business View ). Those old, "wrong-sized" desks you're planning to skip? They can be professionally refurbished and resized to your exact specifications in 7-10 days , at 40-70% less than new , with zero waste and a 12-month warranty . This article is for facilities managers, procurement leads, and fit-out teams who want practical, product-focused solutions. You’ll see when resizing and repurposing makes sense, the savings it delivers, the compliance boxes it ticks, and how to roll it out step by step. Curious what your current desks could deliver if resized or refurbished? Book a free assessment - we’ll map options, costs, and timelines for you.

Why Paying More Isn't Always Better: The Smart Choice of Refurbished Ergonomic Chairs

By Ida Gorecka • August 19, 2025
Refitting an office today means juggling a lot: tighter budgets, faster timelines, and pressure to deliver on ESG goals. And when it comes to ergonomic chairs, the one piece of furniture an office team relies on every day, many assume paying more for “new” automatically means better. But that’s no longer true. Refurbished ergonomic chairs offer the same comfort , durability , and support as new, backed by warranties , come with less cost and with far shorter lead times . For facilities and procurement teams, that means more budget freed up for other priorities, and fewer delays holding back your project. At Coggin SOS, we work with organisations that once assumed refurbished meant second-best. Until they saw the results. High-performance, fully warranted ergonomic chairs. Fast delivery. Circular outcomes they could actually report on. And savings of up to 80% compared to new (check out our case studies here ). In this article, you’ll learn what refurbished office chairs really offer in practice, why they’re becoming a preferred option for FM teams and procurement leads, and how your next fit-out or move could be both greener and smarter than you think. Thinking about your next office project? Contact our team and see how premium refurbished ergonomic chairs can give you comfort, savings, and sustainability in one.

By Ida Gorecka • August 7, 2025
If you're here, you're probably managing a lot. A relocation, a refurbishment, or a growing ESG brief. Maybe you’re under pressure to meet sustainability targets, stay on budget, and deliver results your team and clients can actually see. And right now, office furniture might not be on your radar. But it should be. In most organisations, furniture is still treated as an afterthought. It’s functional, it’s bulky, and when it’s no longer needed, it’s often sent straight to landfill. But here’s the truth: when you start thinking of office furniture as a strategic asset within the circular economy , everything changes. For your budget . Your carbon reporting . Your project timelines . Your reputation . This article is for you if you’re tired of defaulting to skips. If you want smarter ways to meet ESG goals without blowing your budget. If you’re ready to make office sustainability a measurable advantage - not just a checkbox. We’ll show you just how much office furniture is wasted each year, what it’s really costing your business, and how the circular economy can apply directly to your projects. You’ll learn how organisations like yours are saving thousands, avoiding skips entirely, and turning unwanted furniture into reportable ESG wins - plus practical steps to get started today.
