A simpler way to buy well-designed furniture

Workplace Surplus was created to address a long-standing gap in the furniture market.

Across the UK, furniture manufacturers produce high-quality furniture, seating, lighting and ergonomic accessories that are thoughtfully designed and built to perform. When ranges change, finishes are updated, or projects don’t go ahead, many of these products never find their way to being used despite remaining brand new and fully fit for use.

Workplace Surplus exists to provide that route.

By working directly with manufacturers, we make surplus designer furniture, lighting and ergonomic accessories available to both the trade and the public, without unnecessary retail mark-ups.

What we offer

We source brand-new surplus furniture, lighting and ergonomic accessories directly from manufacturers and make it accessible to:

• individuals
  
• businesses and small offices
  
• hospitality environments
  
• designers, architects, and the trade
  

The products are new, unused, and built to the same standards as full-price retail items. The difference lies in how they reach you - through a more direct, considered supply chain.

This allows us to offer designer-led products at prices typically associated with used furniture, without compromise on quality or performance.

Furniture designed to perform - wherever it’s used

Every product offered by Workplace Surplus is selected for function, usability, and long-term reliability.

A well designed chair remains comfortable whether it’s used at home, in a studio, or in a shared workspace. A thoughtfully engineered lamp provides the same light and control regardless of when it was first released.

These products are not trend-driven.
They are purpose-driven.

Availability may change.
Relevance does not.

Straightforward, accessible, and transparent

Workplace Surplus is intentionally easy to navigate.

There’s no trade jargon, no artificial scarcity, and no inflated reference pricing. Product descriptions are clear, pricing is transparent, and the delivery is direct from the manufacturer.

Trade customers benefit from direct access to surplus stock.
The public gain access to better-designed furniture without paying design-led retail premiums.

A considered approach to surplus furniture

By offering a practical route to market for surplus furniture and lighting, Workplace Surplus helps well-made products stay in use rather than remain stored indefinitely.

We don’t overstate this or dress it up.
It’s simply a more sensible way to buy furniture.

Good design lasts.
Good products continue to earn their place.
