TCi furniture WORKS has been the go-to supplier for office furniture, lockers, benches and canteen equipment for nearly two decades – here’s why:
Conducting operations on a live construction site, particularly during the early set-up phase, poses numerous challenges. Not least, a significant health & safety undertaking to ensure the myriad risks are managed to the highest standards. All too often, projects can suffer from late changes in programme (delays to the readiness of accommodation buildings or site availability) and personnel requirements.
An ability to react quickly and develop solutions is vital in helping clients to avoid costly delays
Having supplied and installed furniture and equipment to a vast majority of the UK’s biggest and most prestigious construction projects, the team at TCi has honed its unique approach to this very specialist environment. With an operation that is more akin to being a construction site contractor than a product supplier, what clients receive is an end-to-end service that takes away the pain of organising multiple suppliers and service providers, effectively and reliably navigating the inevitable challenges that arise.
With an exceptionally resilient supply chain model and hugely scalable capacity, there is literally no project too big. In fact, TCi furniture WORKS successfully delivered the FF&E contract for the largest construction site in Europe (now approaching 8,500 operatives). Distance hasn’t been a barrier either, with successful projects delivered in Holland, France, Switzerland and even Australia!
Multi-award winning service…
Being a double winner of the coveted Most Considerate Supplier award from the Considerate Constructors Scheme doesn’t happen by accident either! TCi was recognised nationally as the champion supplier to the industry against a host of honourable household names in both 2017 and 2021.
So what is it that sets TCi apart and provides clients with a service they can rely on to be the best a construction site can get?

- Collaboration and versatility
With a deep understanding of the daily challenges that occur on projects, particularly during the early stages, TCi is well placed to work through any issues with the client and offer solutions that mitigate down-time, save costs and get the job done. Sometimes everyone needs to go back to the drawing board, but with emphasis on collaboration and a will to succeed, the “best possible” outcome is always achieved.
- Alignment on culture & sustainability
More than ever before, company culture and sustainable action is at the heart of everything. From contract procurement to employee retention, there is potential for vital gains when done well and terrible losses if done badly.
