We transform workplaces for the better, in a collaborative and human-centric way, by designing for real people and their ambitions.
We are members. We are owners.
HNI was founded in 1947 in Muscatine, Iowa, by C. Maxwell Stanley, Clement Hanson, and H. Wood Miller. These visionaries believed HNI employees should be treated equally and respectfully as members and owners.
In 1998, HNI acquired Allsteel, an early entrant in the emerging power industry. Allsteelequip Co. was established in 1912 producing metal enclosures and would go on to manufacture lockers and steel cabinets and revolutionize records management with the lateral file.
Today, bigger than one brand, Allsteel continues to transform the ways we all work. With a growing portfolio of workplace furnishings designed and manufactured around the world, Allsteel members and owners are driven by accountability and integrity in all they do.
