Employee owned. People centered.

Since the very beginning, KI has been doing more than manufacturing furniture. We’ve been listening. Learning. Helping our customers create unique and inspiring spaces for the people they serve. Not simply because that’s our business. But because that’s how we can make a difference in the lives of others—for our customers and end users, our own people and the communities we call home.

Great contract furniture starts first with listening and offering expert advice and personalized solutions. Inspiring design reaches out from that first relationship.
