PROJECTS, IDEAS, SOLUTIONS - FAQ
What regulations must stadium seats comply with?
Stadium seating must comply with several technical standards designed to ensure safety, durability, and correct installation within sports facilities. Among the main ones, EN 13200-1 regulates the layout of seating in the various sections of the stadium, ensuring compliance with the required dimensions for evacuation routes and the proper organization of spectator areas.
The EN 13200-4 standard concerns fixing systems and defines the requirements necessary to ensure that each seat is installed in a safe, stable, and reliable way over time. This is a fundamental aspect, as the fixing system plays a decisive role in the overall safety of the structure.
In addition, EN 12727 focuses on the mechanical resistance of the seat. To verify its load-bearing capacity, particularly stringent laboratory tests are carried out: among these, a test with 200,000 impacts applied with a weight of 80 kg at 10 cm from the edge of the seat. The same test is then also performed on the backrest, in order to thoroughly test the resistance of the entire structure and assess its reliability even under intensive use conditions.
What are FIFA criteria?
FIFA criteria represent the reference guidelines for the construction of a football stadium, depending on the type of event it is intended to host. The latest FIFA 2030 recommendations mark an important step forward in terms of comfort and sustainability.
What is the lifespan of a stadium seat?
The average lifespan of a seat is approximately 8–10 years outdoors, depending on environmental conditions and the level of exposure to weather agents, and can reach around 15 years indoors. These are indicative values, however, which may vary depending on several factors, such as the usage context, maintenance, and the stresses the seat is subjected to over time.
Are the seats sustainable?
Yes. OMSI has been investing energy and resources in environmental research and protection for years. The company is certified ISO 9001 not only for production but also for installation, and offers several products made from second-life plastic.
In addition, with the 2024 financial statements, OMSI prepared its first sustainability report, setting important environmental goals for the future.
There is also a record the company is particularly proud of: OMSI’s M2020 is the first stadium seat in the world certified with an EPD.
In which African stadiums are OMSI seats installed?
OMSI seats are installed in numerous African stadiums, reflecting a well-established presence across the continent. Countries where they have been installed include Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Senegal, Togo, Cameroon, South Africa, Botswana, Angola, and Egypt.
