Seminar Tables

What are Seminar tables?

Seminar Tables are narrow width tables – typically 18” or 24” wide. They are used, as their name indicates, for seminars or classes. Since all people are facing the front of the room, they will only sit on one side on the table. This allows for a narrower table than the standard 30”. In addition, these tables usually come with special legs that allow somebody to sit close to the end without backing their knee against the leg. These are called seminar legs.

These seminar tables come in wood and plastic. Situations where the tables will be moved around or stored often call for light weight plastic, while for permanent situations will frequently used wooden tables. All these tables whether plastic, wood or aluminum are fold-able.
