The HON Company Revitalizes New York Showroom

Located in the heart of New York City, the company's Fifth Avenue location provided SmithGroup, a Chicago-based design group, with an ideal space to reflect The HON Company's core values—office furniture that is flexible, durable, and environmentally preferential.



HON’s most notable initiative, Nature Core™, takes center stage in the New York space. Designed for use inside the company’s Initiate® panel systems, Nature Core is made from an annually renewable crop, kenaf. This panel “filler” provides sustainable benefits and can improve indoor air quality when used in Initiate panel systems.

The showroom houses other products that fulfill stringent indoor air quality requirements. In addition to Initiate, more than 90% of HON’s seating line, laminate desking, and its Accomplish™ line of classroom furniture have received various levels of Indoor Advantage certification from Scientific Certification Systems (SCS). As a third-party auditor, SCS helps manufacturers, like HON, meet the highest certification of environmental and quality performance.

Other products that have a notable presence include HON’s Park Avenue Veneer line, Accomplish classroom furniture, F3TM seating with ilira® - stretch, 10500 desking series, Perpetual® Nesting tables, and TerceroTM conference tables.
