March 5, 2012 Bob General, University Furniture, University Loft Company

Here in Indiana, we have lots of great attractions, including the legendary Indianapolis Motor Speedway, the world’s largest Children’s Museum, and the very real town of Santa Claus. We are also home to the world’s largest ball of paint in Alexandria, Indiana. Ball of paint? Yes, a ball…(wait for it)…of paint. As balls of paint [...]

University Housing Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow

If only James Jannetides had started building University Loft college dormitory furniture when I was in school! Yes, I admit it, my university residence hall days ended a bit shy of Jannetides’ founding of University Loft in 1986. If ULoft furniture had been in my college dorm rooms, my roommates and I would have had [...]

The University Loft Formula for Better University Living

September 18, 2011 ULC Blog Team Environment, General, Green Initiatives, University Furniture

University Loft freely shares its success formula, unlike many iconic American companies that go to great lengths to keep their secrets, well…secret. Take KFC®, for example. Their recipe of “eleven secret herbs and spices” is kept under tight security, and only two corporate employees purportedly know its contents. Coca-Cola® is another secret-keeper, whose original recipe [...]

What makes EFT (Environmentally Farmed Timber) the best choice for furniture?

July 29, 2011 ULC Blog Team Environment, Green Initiatives

The decision to use EFT (Environmentally Farmed Timber) stemmed in large part from our sense of environmental responsibility—the topic of the previous post. Another reason, however, is that Hevea brasiliensis wood is one of the best choices out there for furniture construction.   We and our customers get the best of both worlds: superior furniture, [...]
