Choosing the right seating can transform your event, improve comfort, and streamline setup - crucial for creating memorable experiences at scale. Here are Alloyfold’s top seating solutions designed to meet the demands of large events across New Zealand and Australia.
1. Retractable Seating Systems
Alloyfold’s Axor™ retractable seating quickly transforms venues with motorised, semi-auto, or manual options - from benches to upholstered stadium chairs.

Comfort That Encourages Connection
It’s not just function - it’s feeling. Comfortable, ergonomic seating encourages residents to stay, connect, and engage. Thoughtfully designed chairs turn everyday events into meaningful experiences, making community spaces truly inviting.
Designed for Community - and the People Who Run It
In community venues run by small teams or volunteers, efficiency is key. Stackable chairs with linking systems and protective foot caps keep spaces tidy and floors safe. Trolleys like the Nova Chair Trolley make setup and storage fast and easy - even for one person.
Sustainability and Longevity
In lifestyle communities, durability matters. Chairs made from tough materials like fibreglass-reinforced polypropylene offer long-lasting performance and are backed by commercial warranties. With custom colours and upholstery, they’re as stylish as they are sturdy.
Real-World Inspiration: Belrose Country Club
Belrose Country Club in Sydney’s Northern Beaches is a great example of smart seating in action. With a full events calendar, they upgraded to 140 black Nova Chairs and a custom trolley. The result? A more comfortable, flexible, and visually appealing space that supports everything from social nights to meetings.
Great seating does more than provide comfort - it brings people together, supports events, and helps create a true sense of community. For new developments or upgrades, it’s one of the simplest, most effective ways to elevate shared spaces.
