New Products
Castors
New 60mm castor available in silver with black PU tread and various collar sizes. This castor design will compliment any task chair or desking range as it also comes in a braked version.
To express your interest in these castors please contact Barry Grant. Please quote the CMS codes:
CMS1878—braked version CMS1879—unbraked version
Glides
CMS can now offer anti-slip glides. The base is a non marking TPU pad mounted into the nylon. Perfect for specialist installations where castors are not the preferred option on hard or wooden floor.
If you would like to know more about these glides please email Barry Grant.
Adjustable Arms
Our new all nylon adjustable arm was project lead by the CMS CAD team and tooling was completed earlier this year. We are excited about the potential of this angled arm due to its environmental and cost advantages, alongside its aesthetics.
We feel sure this can attack the overcrowded and stale flat steel trigger adjustable arm market. The arm comes in all nylon or with a TPU inlay for soft touch on the top surface. This inlay can be manufactured in various colours.
This will be available from stock at the end of May.
Back Sets
With costs being at the forefront of everyone’s minds in these tough times CMS can offer excellent prices on plastic back sets. These sets are suited to Budget mechs or can be used in conjunction with Donati mechs to take them to the next level of quality. Pictured are medium, high and task sizes with a standard back outer. Please ask for details if you would like a different style of outer design as we have others in this range.
Pictured above are CMS0479, CMS0482 and CMS0483.
Tub Chairs
As you may know CMS supply single and double seated Tub Chairs foamed and ready for upholstery. We can now offer a three seater to compliment these.

New Developments
As from the 1st of April 2009 our wooden products supplier was awarded Chain of Custody.
CMS are now looking into our Chain of Custody, however, to assist us with our certificate we need to have historical records of us requesting, receiving and storing FSC certified products, until we have certification we are not able by law to state on our documents (invoices, delivery notes etc) that the product is FSC although we believe our suppliers intentions is to stamp all FSC products (although this is not a mandatory requirement but one carried out by choice).
The products that the factory supplies to us can be of 2 different FSC labels—FSC 100% and FSC mixed sources.
FSC 100% - products carrying a 100% FSC label come only from well managed forests that have met high FSC social and environmental standards.
FSC mixed sources—products with a mixed source label support the development of responsible forest management worldwide. The wood comes from FSC certified well managed forests recycled material and/or controlled wood which comes from non-controversial sources.
We will continue to keep you updated with our progress.
Over the Hill
Our Sales Director Barry Grant hit the big 4-0 at the end of February. Barry celebrated his landmark birthday with close friends and family. I am sure you will join us in wishing him many Happy Returns and all the best for the next forty!
