About Us

Company History

Based in Ridgeland, South Carolina, Kwalu was founded in 1984. For over two decades, we have been active partners with our clients in solving industry-wide seating and furniture dilemmas. Based on our clients requests, in 2001 we expanded our reach in the industry by developing lines of virtually indestructible casegoods and tables that complement our vast array of seating for all areas of your facility. Kwalu Casegoods, Kwalu Seating and Kwalu Tables have pioneered the use of high-impact resistant polymers to produce wood-grained furniture that is as stylish as it is durable. The innovative, modular construction of all Kwalu furniture, and the wide array of components, styles, and finishes available, has brought the creativity back into contract interior design. Designers and facilities can now satisfy all of their furniture needs from one source, providing a level of design flexibility and durability unmatched in the furniture industry. All this combined with a heretofore unheard of 10-year warranty on finish and construction.

Kwalu further responded to rising market demand in 2004 with the proud introduction of a new line of Wall Protection products. Leveraging the company’s proprietary high-impact resistant polymers with integral wood grain, a central element in the success of Kwalu furniture, Kwalu Wall Protection is a completely fresh and innovative alternative to traditional means of protecting facilities from everyday abuse. With this major advance, Kwalu is now the only manufacturer of furniture or wall protection that extends the ability to fully coordinate all interior finishes throughout any facility. Match the classic styling of Kwalu Wainscot, Wall Covering, Handrails, Corner Guards, Door and Door Frame Protection, and Wall Guards with all of your seating, tables, and casegood requirements.

Design Flexibility

The nearly unlimited range of designs available for Kwalu Seating, Casegoods, Tables and Wall Protection allow designers a high degree of stylistic expression. The three basic furniture categories are Traditional, Contemporary and Transitional, and they may be interchanged to create unique looks limited only by your imagination. These multiple configurations are possible due to our patented manufacturing process, enabling you to virtually custom-design any style.

Together with the possibility of custom colors, inset and inlay designs, and dimensions tailored to suit the needs of your facility, you will begin to understand what is meant by complete customer satisfaction. We offer a vast array of fabric, finish and hardware options. The ability to protect your walls, doors and door frames with décor matching your furniture gives you a complete, coordinated design package never before available, anywhere!
