Australia Day

shannon — Sun, 22 Jan 2012 03:23:39 +0000

Australia Day is coming up this Thursday! We love to support local manufacturing of furniture in Adelaide and Melbourne where ever we can. Unfortunately, a lot of our furniture is manufactured overseas so that our prices can remain competitive, but we still like to promote our locally upholstered and fabricated products to support Australians with specialised skills. A great way to support local production is by customising your furniture with your own selection of fabrics. Our imported BDH165 barstools are a great price for a modern kitchen stool (and the BDH175 as the commercial barstool version); but we also offer the option of having the seats upholstered in your choice of fabric which gets produced locally.

Other examples of furniture items for hospitality and home use that are proudly Australian made are:
Custom Tasmanian Oak timber table tops and tables, stainless steel dry bar and table frames, custom fabric ottomans, chairs, and stools.

Limited supplies

The end of the year is fast approaching and inventory levels are moving daily. If you need any chairs, tables, bar stools, or any other hospitality furniture before the end of the year, you had better get in quick! If you have any questions please feel free to call us on 1300 269 800.

Banquet seating

shannon — Tue, 29 Nov 2011 01:14:29 +0000

Banquet seating is so popular in Australian cafes, restaurants, hotels, bars, and clubs, as it provides comfort to patrons and opens up space for extra seating on the floor. You can also put the 1 and 1.2m length banquet seats back-to-back to create booth style seating for small groups to gather in a more private and comfortable setting.

Concept Collections has a large range of hospitality furniture including high quality banquet seats available at fantastic prices. Visit in-store today to get a quote on completing your fit-out.

Concept Collections fit out major snow resort in Victoria

shannon — Mon, 12 Sep 2011 02:23:37 +0000

Lake Mountain Alpine Resort has selected Concept Collections above other suppliers to fit out and supply commercial furniture for their new building which now attracts up to a 1000+ visitors a week.

The contract consisted of dining chairs, tables, barstools, banquet seating, ottomans, and stainless steel outdoor settings.

Marketing Manager, Trudi Ackerman, is impressed with their selection and mentioned that the dining areas looks great, and since the opening they have already had a wedding take place and several bookings have also been taken.

Rob Lens appreciated working with the team at Lake Mountain Alpine Resort.

K1 Wines by Geoff Hardy

shannon — Thu, 24 Feb 2011 23:49:14 +0000

I went for a drive up to Kuitpo yesterday to visit the K1 Cellar Door as I was dropping off some drybar bases for Geoff and Bec. WOW! That place is amazing. After driving past the tall trees of the Kuitpo Forest, you are greeted by a beautiful driveway toward the cellar door that is situated on the edge of a large dam. The vineyards spread across 30 hectares and produce beautiful South Australian wines, which I look forward to sampling at the Cellar Door Wine Festival tonight at the Adelaide Convention Centre. For anyone who has not been there, you must visit – and they do host limited functions in case you wanted to book! Last year, they had the ODH061 outdoor chairs delivered in the Arctic Ice colour (right in image) – check them out on when you’re there!

Brand new samples landing soon…

shannon — Thu, 10 Feb 2011 01:26:01 +0000

Watch this space… Adelaide cafes, restaurants, and hotels will have an even bigger choice of chairs in the next couple weeks! concept collections is bringing more new samples of great commercial grade chairs to complete the look of your hospitality facilities. New chairs will be added to the website as they arrive.

Melbourne restaurants, cafes, and hotels will also be able to view a great new range of cafe chairs, dining chairs, and outdoor chairs soon as the Melbourne showroom (in Abbotsford) will also be expanding their range of chairs to see and touch to choose from in store in the next couple weeks.

Exciting times… stay tuned!

Merry Christmas!
