Since 1947, Suburban Seating & Safety has supported commercial fleets with dependable seating solutions designed for long service life and backed by hands-on customer support. That history guides every product we offer and serves as the foundation for our partnership with HSM Transportation. HSM is a trusted American manufacturer known for school bus and commercial vehicle seating that blends comfort, safety, and engineering precision.
This partnership allows us to provide US-made solutions that meet strict performance expectations across school buses, delivery trucks, shuttle vans, and other passenger vehicle types that rely on safe and durable seating. Together, we help owner-operators and fleet managers explore advanced seating engineered for demanding service environments while offering full support for seat replacement and fleet seat upgrades.
School Bus Seating Solutions
HSM Transportation has been a leader in school bus seating for decades, and their products continue to set the standard for safety and reliability. School districts, contractors, and fleet operators value HSM bench seats because each model is designed for secure transport in busy passenger seat environments and includes features that support child safety.
These seats use flame-retardant foam, tamper-resistant covers, and integrated lap and shoulder belts that work effectively with a child restraint when required. The designs are FMVSS-compliant and meet all state-driven school transportation rules.
These bench systems provide dependable comfort for all age groups while helping schools reduce wear and extend the life of their interiors. Operators appreciate how seat cushion components and other school bus parts integrate with existing bus bodies for quick replacement or repair. HSM seats are also made in the USA, supporting strong manufacturing quality while offering long service cycles.

Commercial and Transit Vehicle Seating
HSM commercial seating solutions support transportation providers that depend on stable, comfortable interiors for shuttle vans, commercial bus fleets, paratransit operations, and long-route services.
Options include mid-back and high-back models that help reduce passenger fatigue and improve ride quality. Many designs incorporate layouts that meet ADA compliance requirements, along with configurations that work well as Transit van seats.
Passenger comfort remains central to each model. Ergonomic shaping, durable fabrics, and supportive geometry deliver consistent performance during heavy-duty use. These options also allow operators to match fleet branding and cleaning standards.
For shuttle operators and van upfitters who need reliable shuttle seats that stay comfortable during continuous loading, HSM seats deliver long-lasting value.
You can compare multiple configurations through our shuttle bus seats or commercial vehicle seating pages to find options suited for hotel shuttles, airport transportation, and municipal services.
Durability and Safety Built into Every Seat
HSM Transportation seats are built for tough commercial environments where continuous use demands resilient frames and reliable components. Every model undergoes in-house testing to measure impact performance, long-term structural fatigue, and material durability. These evaluations confirm that each product aligns with the safety standards expected by school districts and professional operators seeking dependable safety seating products.
High-grade foams and resilient upholstery help each foldaway seat, driver’s seat, or fixed-position assembly maintain its shape and comfort throughout years of operation. Reinforced frames and consistent construction practices also create stable mounting conditions for jump seats and other specialty configurations. Components made for commercial use help maintain appearance and working strength in vehicles that cycle through daily passenger loads.
These qualities make HSM seating dependable for passenger seating, commercial bus interiors, and mixed-service fleets that handle regular passenger turnover.
Custom Seating Configurations
Suburban Seating & Safety works closely with operators who need customized HSM seating solutions that match unique layouts or service requirements. Many fleets choose specific colors, fabrics, and widths that align with brand identity or passenger density goals.
We also help customers design seating packages for wheelchair-accessible interiors, reconfigurable shuttle layouts, or specialty transit configurations that require the precise placement of aftermarket bus seats.
This support extends to paratransit vehicles, shuttle fleets, and operators who want flexible seating for mixed routes. Configurations that include a foldaway seat or jump seats can help fleets serve groups of varying sizes without sacrificing overall efficiency. Our long history in commercial seating enables us to guide customers from initial selection to final approval, ensuring each layout meets functional needs and complies with manufacturer standards.
