The effect of school lockers on health
In the 1970s and 1980s, as the number of educational materials increased, it has been noticed that students were carrying heavier and heavier backpacks. Research has proven that students' backpacks are overloaded. School lockers proved to be the solution, and organizations such as the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) began recommending their use to reduce stress on children's spines.
Research on the impact of school lockers on children's health has evolved over the decades. Introducing lockers into schools has proven to be an effective way to reduce students' physical burden, improve their posture, and overall health and well-being.
The problem of heavy backpacks has been known to us for a long time - after all, we are the pioneers of school lockers in Poland. Malow furniture can be found in hundreds of Polish schools - they serve the health and safety of children there.
New MALOW school lockers with a shelf for textbooks
Malow school lockers feature:
- Solid, welded construction and extensive equipment as standard.
- Furniture bodies are welded just like car bodies - this ensures strength, stability, and high durability of Malow furniture.
- The cabinets are available in two heights: 1800 mm and 1450 mm for the youngest students.
- The cabinets contain extensive standard equipment: a bar with 2 double hooks, a horizontal bookshelf at 1/3 of the height of the compartment and a reinforced door with Malow ventilation and a lock with 2 keys for each compartment.
- 2 double, strong hooks in the cabinet provide as many as 4 places to hang clothes. The way they are placed on the bar prevents the hooks from gaining weight on one side - the hooks can be loaded unevenly while still maintaining their stability.
Additional equipment for social furniture is available for school lockers (including canopies, bases, benches), exactly the same as the rest of the furniture from the WSU group.

Advantage of welded construction
The following comparison of our welded wardrobe with the riveted wardrobe of our competitors expresses more than 1000 words. Metal furniture must be permanently joined to take advantage of the strength potential of the metal - otherwise (riveting, screwing), the most important features of metal furniture - stability and durability - are lost.
Another significant advantage of welded furniture is that it is immediately ready for use. Self-assembly furniture, taking into account the time needed to prepare it for use, actually costs much more than the package itself.
Watch the comparison and see for yourself why it is worth choosing furniture manufactured using the most durable metal joining method.
