From its creation in 1964 to date, Biplax Industrias del Mueble, S.A. has remained one of the leading companies in the production of office seating in Spain.
Biplax began its activity by manufacturing sofa-beds and soon focused its activity on the manufacture of office seating, becoming a leading firm in the research and development involving this product. The Basque firm was intuitively aware of the importance of values such as design and ergonomics and began focusing its efforts on these areas.
The company commenced exporting in 1970 and was one of the pioneering firms in this field. This mission has remained unchanged and today the firm boasts a presence in all five continents. Biplax became the leading export manufacturer in its sector, selling its chairs in diverse international markets. Nowadays, its products are available in over 20 countries and it has set up several business consortia with a view to accessing the markets in France, India and Mexico.
Biplax is currently a synonym of quality and ergonomics. This Basque firm manufactures all its models on the basis of concern for the welfare of the user, thus responding efficiently to the workstation needs.
In recent years Biplax has strengthened its commitment to ergonomics. All its products are subjected to different ergonomic tests in specialised laboratories, for the purpose of achieving a safe, comfortable and simple product.
And, as far as quality is concerned, it is no accident that the Basque firm is the first Spanish office seating manufacturing company to be awarded ISO 9001 certification, granted by the AENOR laboratories. In 2004, Biplax was also awarded the ISO 14001 certificate in environmental management. All the company´s products are also backed by CIDEMCO, which certifies the quality of the materials used in production.
On the cutting edge of ergonomics and design, Biplax has positioned its products among the most prestigious in this sector, with a presence at the main international design fora and shows. The company also actively participates with different associations.
From its head-offices in Sondika, and with delegations in Barcelona, Madrid, Seville, Valencia and Santa Cruz de Tenerife, this family business markets its products throughout Spain and its chairs can be seen in the country´s most representative buildings, companies and organisations.
