Headquartered in Marlton, New Jersey, USA, Global office furniture makes just about anything you could want for furnishing an office. Their business has been providing quality made, affordable furniture for businesses worldwide since 1966.
The company does so much more than just manufacture office furniture. They manufacture office furniture that provides an advantage over simply being functional. In addition to being pleasing to the eye, it is designed to be ergonomically beneficial to those who use it. Ergonomic features are incorporated into everything they manufacture in order to provide a comfortable and healthy working environment for those using their products.
Global is one of the few office furniture manufacturers worldwide that has its own in-house testing facility. They test each new product to assure that it meets their own stringent quality controls as well as all governmental regulations and industry standards. They are an International Organization for Standardization 9000-registered company, meaning they have been independently certified and audited and found to be in compliance with formalized international business processes.
In addition, Global business furniture is better for the office environment than many manufactured furniture pieces. They’ve been well ahead of the curve in implementing environmentally friendly manufacturing practices. They have been maintaining a worldwide policy of reduce, reuse and recycle for much longer than governmental regulations have required. Their corporate belief has always been that protecting the environment is the right thing to do.
All of their seating products are Greenguard Indoor Air Quality certified. Greenguard is a well-known third party certification company that tests products for harmful chemical emissions that contribute to harmful indoor air pollution. They test products under conditions designed to simulate actual product use to provide empirical evidence of the amount of chemical and particle discharge.
The design and manufacture of green office furniture doesn’t stop there however. All of their products are made using environmentally responsible methods. Global operates their own recycling facility that recycles up to 90% of produced waste. Along with other programs, they currently prevent 3000 pounds of fabric scrap from ending up in landfills each day. The larger scraps are donated to a charitable organization that turns them into tote bags. The remainder is used to produce mattress pads, futons and sound insulation for car hoods. They demand environmentally sustainable practices from their suppliers as well and they continue to support, develop and implement new technologies for reducing waste.
In addition to these highly valuable green practices, Global also excels in customer service: to its end users as well as their distributors. The highly respected Office Furniture Dealer Alliance (OFDA) has presented Global with the best of furniture manufacturer’s award for three years in a row. This exemplifies a level of service that has been unsurpassed in the industry.

Many of their lines have won awards from the highly respected magazine “Design Journal” for their innovation, esthetics and design. Global offers everything from executive office collections to office workstation furniture, reception area plush to rolling presentation boards, filing stations, conference centers, computer and presentation accessories and hundreds of seating choices.
