Irwin Seating provides seat restoration to help historical theaters manage costs and
requirements while preserving the look and feel of their theaters, for a better experience for all
their guests. Our process has been finely honed over time. We work with local artisans to have
metal and wood parts carefully stripped, then bring items to our Grand Rapids, Michigan facility
to be powder coated and refinished. Our upholstery is done in-house, and we can add custom
details. Our in-house decorators can hand paint details such as Art Deco style embellishments
to return them to their former opulence.
