The ABC Cinema in Nottingham – Cinema seating has come a long way!
Sussex Seating has been providing new, bespoke and refurbished seating solutions for a wide variety of venues for over 25 years.
As the name suggests, our roots are in Sussex, and we began in workshops near Chichester, West Sussex. In 2019 we arrived at our current premises on the edge of the beautiful Dartmoor National Park at Yelverton, Devon in the South West of England.

Sustainability
We work closely with our staff, suppliers and clients to make sustainability central to our operations.
To this end we manufacture in the UK and use a network of local and UK suppliers to significantly reduce the carbon footprint of our chairs for the UK market.
The structural components of our chairs are robust so the upholstery can be renewed and/or redesigned as preferred to create a new look for the chairs without renewing all the basic chair components.
Refurbishment means less waste and can be an economical option for your existing chairs.
Steel is used for our chair standards and can be recycled indefinitely without losing its properties.
We use a local timber supplier who ensures all timber products are legally harvested from well managed forests. We also offer a range of wooden frames and cupholders as an alternative to plastic options.
In the factory, we endeavour to limit waste and promote re-use and recycling wherever possible and we work with a local non-profit organisation Scrapstore who reuse our offcuts of fabric, foam, timber and whatever else they can find useful.
