The modern campus is evolving to keep up with continual technological advancements and modern teaching methods. Contemporary events have shown the need for flexibility and fast responses to a changing world.
Schools need campus furniture that can keep up with evolving student and faculty needs—furniture that can withstand constant hard use and furniture that ships fast so you have what you need when you need it. MityLite and Holsag by MityLite have been outfitting schools and universities for over two decades. All our chairs come with a solid commercial warranty and can be customized in dozens of fabrics and frame finish options.
Here’s how Holsag by MityLite can help you outfit every space on your campus.

Outdoor chairs for dining, lounge, & study areas
Numerous research studies indicate that outdoor areas are essential parts of an attractive, progressive campus or school environment.1 Environmentally, college campuses feature two main zones: urban areas with closely connected buildings and greenspace common areas that connect the urban zones.2 Furnishing the greenspaces with practical and inviting furniture can impact the desirability of a school campus and support good mental health.
MityLite’s Vita Outdoor Furniture Collection is designed to complement various outdoor design styles and last through many years of commercial use. Two collections popular on school campuses are the Ash Family of outdoor couches and lounge furniture and the Magnolia Family. The Ash line is made for conversation and studying; it includes outdoor couches, side chairs, sectionals, and side tables. The Magnolia line features ultra-durable outdoor furniture made of faux wood and recyclable aluminum frames. The collection includes dining chairs and tables, benches, and armchairs.
