Innovation
We foster a culture of innovation. Across every department and team at Sauder Worship Seating we encourage collaboration and the sharing of new ideas. We welcome challenges … and have the experience, skill, technology, engineering, and creativity to build anything you can imagine.
A few product innovations exclusive to Sauder Worship Seating:
- Ergonomics – Every pew, chair, or bench seat is ergonomically contoured for maximum comfort while sitting during worship services.
- Quiet Operation – Every auditorium seat offers a remarkably quiet operation as it moves, eliminating noise distractions. The gravity lift seat design results in more aisle space, so you’re comfortable both sitting and standing during services.
- Pew Design – Radiance™ Curved Pews create a warm and welcoming space.
- Furniture Finishes – The 2K polyurethane finish is a technology-forward robust, long-lasting finish capable of withstanding the harshest chemical cleaners and disinfectants. It is also remarkably resistant to prolonged UV light exposure.
Environmental Stewardship
We respect and protect the environment. Through a range of sustainable design and stewardship programs, Sauder Worship Seating is committed to caring for our planet and resources. Our approach includes responsible sourcing, conserving, recycling, and continuously enhancing internal sustainability-focused processes. It’s all part of our long-term commitment to our employees, community, customers, and future generations.
In support of our environmental efforts, we participate in BIFMA LEVEL® e3, Clean Air® and GREENGUARD® certification programs.
