Abstract : There is a need for a device that effectively shields hard floor surfaces from damage. An effective floor protector device would offer a soft and sufficiently thick material to act as a buffer between the floor surface and the furniture to prevent scratches and gouges, and it would  offer a more durable design to prevent the device or its components from detaching from the furniture to which it is attached.

These leg caps can be used on home, office, hotel, restaurant, apartment, garage. Suit for chair legs. Typically used on tables, desks, chairs, cabinets, sofas, benches,

armchairs, folding chairs, stools, and so on.

To develop chair leg protector using injection moulding process by employing  in-house workshop facility.

The project aims to create public chair leg protector by using plastic or rubber which is durable

The objective is to prevent the legs of chair from scratching and damaging all floor and carpet types
