With a focus on comfort, flexibility and functionality, Alumni furniture helps schools create spaces that support different teaching styles, age groups and learning activities.

Quality & Construction

Alumni furniture is designed for the everyday demands of busy educational environments. Products are manufactured using durable materials and undergo quality inspections throughout the production process.

Depending on the product, construction may include welded steel frames, durable laminate or hard-plastic surfaces, powder-coated finishes and impact-resistant edging. Many products are also available in a range of heights, sizes and configurations to accommodate different students and classroom needs.

Materials, weight capacities and construction details vary by product.

Materials & Product Options

Alumni products are available in a wide selection of colours, finishes and materials, making it easier to coordinate furniture with your school’s design and functional requirements.

Available options may include laminate and hard-plastic work surfaces, polypropylene seating, upholstered fabrics, powder-coated frames and several edge treatments. Select products may also offer accessibility, fire-code or other compliance options.

Because colours and patterns may appear differently on a screen, reviewing physical finish samples is recommended when making final selections.

Warranty & Support

Alumni products are backed by a limited manufacturer’s warranty, with coverage varying by product and component. Steel frame components may qualify for extended warranty coverage, while work surfaces, seating components and moving mechanisms may have different warranty periods.

Support is available for warranty concerns, shipping damage, missing hardware and incorrect or damaged products. Replacement, repair or credit may be provided in accordance with the manufacturer’s warranty terms.

Product availability, lead times and warranty coverage should be confirmed at the time of purchase.
