Introducing Younger + Co: Bench-Built Furniture with Sustainable Values
Please join us in welcoming Younger + Co, our newest Urban Natural workshop partner, and a longstanding North Carolina manufacturer of expertly handcrafted furniture. Family-owned and operated since 1989, this beloved workshop is especially known for bench-built living room pieces and a commitment to ethically sourced local materials. Originally founded by Mike Younger and now helmed by his daughter Meredith, Younger + Co is rooted in community-driven values where everyone, from the skilled artisans and team members they employ to the suppliers and retailers they collaborate with, plays a vital role in their products mission and success. We’re proud to offer Younger + Co furniture, as they share many of our own values by being ethically responsible, handcrafted, USA-made, and sustainable. For premium quality and value, Younger + Co is a name you can trust for your home and family.
A Personalized Touch for Long-Lasting Quality and Appeal
One of the things that sets Younger + Co apart, particularly in an age of automated mass manufacturing, is their dedication to bench-built craftsmanship. This approach means that each piece of furniture is handmade by a single craftsperson from start to finish. As a result, every step of the process receives the utmost attention to detail and care for a finished product that’s of the highest heirloom quality. Combined with their keen eye for timeless modern design and locally-sourced materials, Younger + Co furniture is thoughtfully built for durability, comfort, and beauty that won’t go out of style. Bench-made pieces also often incorporate more intricate woodworking techniques which gives them a more unique and personalized aesthetic that’s meant to be enjoyed and passed down through generations.
Customizable Variety that’s Made To Order
Every Younger + Co sofa, sectional, accent chair, and ottoman is always made to order and specifically built just for you, including their bestselling Quick Ship collection. Nothing is ever pre-made, and production won’t even begin on your piece until after you’ve placed your order and selected any personalized customizations you prefer from their extensive array of options. This tailor-made means of providing expertly handcrafted furniture that’s intentionally built for you creates a unique opportunity for customers; you can choose from five different wood leg finishes, black or brushed metal finishes, and among over 300 fabrics sourced from all over the world, including Performance Fabric Plus options! And if you’re looking to receive your furniture more quickly, you can opt for a piece from their Quick Ship collection, which ensures a faster delivery time without compromising on quality or meticulously crafted care.
Committed To Sustainability and Locally Sourced Materials
From locally sourced FSC-certified wood to CertiPUR-certified foam for all of their cushioning, Younger + Co is committed to using sustainable and ethically responsible materials in their furniture. Everything used to craft their frames, springs, cushioning, and furniture legs is sourced from within an 85-mile radius of their Thomasville, North Carolina factory! This dedication to reducing their carbon footprint, while still providing the highest quality products for their customers, is just another way Younger + Co makes a difference for the future of furniture-making and the environment. As a business, they also value a deep sense of community responsibility and make regular efforts to support, empower, and celebrate the people they work with, whose lives and talents contribute to the exceptional work they do.
At Urban Natural, we feel grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with partners like Younger + Co, and to share their heirloom quality living room sofas, sectionals, accent chairs and ottomans with our own community. By providing greater access to sustainable and USA made furniture and home decor, we hope to encourage a healthier tomorrow for your home and our planet.
