How to choose the best upholstery staples for your work ?

If we asked a specialist what is the most important in the process of making furniture, they would certainly answer that precision is. Any unevenness or error will affect the quality of the final product, and as we know well in the furniture industry, appearance counts as much as functionality. It is no different in the case of upholstered furniture. Here, too, details play a major role. A well-hewn piece of furniture should be perfectly covered with upholstery, which would be impossible without the use of appropriate upholstery staples. Good selection allows you to firmly and permanently connect the upholstery to the wood, which will extend the life of the furniture and maintain a good look for longer.

WE CHOOSE STAPLES ACCORDING TO THE LENGTH

The type of staple itself is of little use unless we choose the appropriate length. Upholstery staples must be of sufficient length to catch and attach the upholstery to the furniture.
