The new solutions in the scope of application of solvent adhesives used in production of upholstery furniture was presented. Advantages and disadvantages of these adhesives were characterized. On the basis of data from one producer of furniture (MEBLOMAR Comp.), prices of selected components used in the production of upholstery furniture in the years 2005, 2008 and 2011 in comparison with data from 2000 were given. It was stated that the increasing costs of plant maintenance, purchase of materials and their storage are forcing manufacturers to increase prices of their products, but competition on the market does not allow for their growth. Therefore, the aim is to introduce modern technologies for the production of furniture and to reduce costs while maintaining high-quality products.
