Maple Key Madness Doesn’t Make it Easy to be Green

May 17, 2012 Bob Environment, Green Initiatives, University Furniture, University Loft Company

Here in Central Indiana, spring brings a rain of maple keys. You know, those weird maple tree seed-thingies.

Better Ingredients. Better University Furniture. University Loft.

May 4, 2012 Bob Environment, Green Initiatives, University Furniture

As a marketing aficionado, I pay attention to such things as taglines, unique selling propositions, and how companies express their competitive advantages. One series of TV commercials always makes me nod in appreciation of the tagline used. You’ve probably seen Papa John’s pizza founder (and Indiana native) John Schnatter saying “Better Ingredients. Better Pizza. Papa [...]

That’s why University Loft is particularly proud that so many – we’re talking hundreds upon hundreds – of colleges and universities across America and [...]

The Student Furniture Recipe for Success from University Loft

March 23, 2012 Bob Comfort, Customization, Environment, Green Initiatives, Innovation, Personalization, Quality, University Furniture

We recently bought a juicer for my household. You know, one of those super-fast spinny contraptions that extracts nutrient rich juices from fruits and vegetables so we don’t actually have to eat carrots and celery and kale – oh my!). As we tried out different recipes to help us achieve our nutrition goals, it occurred [...]

Like Sunshine on a Cloudy Day, University Loft Student Furniture Makes You Feel Good

March 19, 2012 Bob Environment, Green Initiatives, Quality, University Furniture

It’s a cloudy day. Third one in a row. Cold. Gray. Windy and drab. Eeyore might revel in the gloom, but for the rest of us, it’s a bummer. And then the clouds part and there’s a bright shining orb in the sky. Why…it’s the sun! Hallelujah! It breaks through the drear like, well, like [...]

University Loft’s Green Student Furniture Story is an Open Book

March 2, 2012 Bob Environment, Green Initiatives, Quality, University Furniture, University Loft Company

Why don’t some student furniture manufacturers talk much about the materials that go into their furniture for college and university student housing? Maybe its because they aren’t as proud of how their products are made as we are at University Loft Company. ULoft student furniture is made from solid wood and is strong enough to [...]

Looking for Green Student Furniture? Look No Further Than University Loft.

January 20, 2012 ULC Blog Team Environment, Green Initiatives, University Furniture

No, I’m not talking about green-colored furniture, and certainly not green-colored students. Rather, I’m talking about furniture for students that is manufactured in a way that is environmentally responsible. That’s what we do at University Loft. These days, of course, it’s hard to dispute that being environmentally responsible is a good thing. Maybe that’s why [...]

With University Loft Student Furniture, Being Green Is Always In Season

December 22, 2011 Bob Environment, Green Initiatives, University Furniture

As I write this post, we’re hurtling headlong into the holiday season, which brings the inevitable Christmas tree debate: Which is better, real or fake? There are valid arguments on both sides, I suppose, but one of the arguments often touted by the artificial tree contingent is that using an artificial tree is better for [...]
