Product Design & Material Selection

Product Durability

Clarin makes products that last. Clarin does not make any disposable products. Clarin selects durable materials and engineers them to last. Our products minimize waste over time.

Recycled Materials

Up to 25% of the steel content in our steel folding chairs is recycled. The steel content in our storage trucks is made from 100% recycled steel. We also offer fabric options made from 100% recycled material. Our cardboard is composed of 18% recycled material.

Manufacturing and Sourcing Locations

Almost all of Clarin products are made in the United States. Our sourcing criteria weigh the proximity of materials to our U.S. manufacturing facilities. Our sourcing decisions try to cut down on unnecessary carbon emissions and fuel consumption.

Replaceable Parts and Knockdown Designs

Clarin designs furniture with replaceable parts so that customers can repair their products with new components and avoid scrapping the entire product. The finished products also can be "knocked down" into smaller components to minimize the shipping requirements.

Component Economy

We can offer foam made from 20% soy-based material. We order pre-cut foam forms to minimize excess foam waste. Our suppliers then convert foam waste into carpet backing materials.

Improve air quality by minimizing off-gassing

Clarin's policy is to source components and materials that minimize VOC emissions.
