Elevate your event with stylish Tolix furniture from Expo Hire. Discover our wide selection for hire.
Event organisers frequently ask why tolix furniture is perfect for your next event hire. This industrial seating helps you establish the right atmosphere at weddings, corporate gatherings, garden parties, and festivals. The chairs and tables feature a distinctive look combined with practical advantages. Weatherproof and stackable qualities appeal to professional buyers planning large-scale functions. Expo Hire stocks this galvanised steel collection to suit various themes and settings.
The Tolix collection boasts a rich history originating in 1937. Xavier Pauchard, a French metalworker, developed a method of dipping sheet metal into molten zinc. This galvanising process prevents rust and led to the creation of the now-iconic chair. Pauchard originally created these seats for practical application in French cafes and bistros. Perforated seats allow water to drain away from the surface. Today, the industrial-chic aesthetic fits indoor and outdoor environments. Professional venue managers appreciate this historical design because it brings authentic character to modern hospitality spaces.
Galvanised steel construction withstands heavy use throughout an event. You can integrate this versatile seating with many decor styles, from elegant weddings to professional corporate functions. Tolix chairs and stools stack together to save space. This design feature simplifies transport and storage for event organisers focused on rapid setup and teardown. A stack of five chairs typically measures around 1.8 metres high. You can transport a considerable number of seating options in a single vehicle, reducing logistical complexity. Weatherproof materials mean unexpected showers will not ruin your furniture. Outdoor festivals and garden parties benefit greatly from this water-resistant quality, allowing you to leave the seating outside overnight without concern.
At Expo Hire, the Tolix collection includes several options to meet different event requirements. You can browse live stock levels and pricing directly on our website.
