Industry: Furniture And Fixtures

 

Firms in this industry make furniture for households and offices from wood, metal, and plastic. They make partitions, shelves, lockers, window blinds, shades, and drapery hardware.

Workers cut, bend, mold, laminate, and assemble products of wood, metal, glass, plastic, and rattan. Designers make an effort to integrate usefulness and beauty into finished products. Metal and wood are the most common materials. Some furniture combines several materials.
