Skram products are a distillation of the essential. They are a spare negotiation of beauty, utility and durability. With each object, they embark on a measured refinement to find its core, which is then expressed through a graceful coalescence of form, line, proportion and materiality.

​

Based in the Piedmont region of North Carolina since 2001, the hope of Skram is that in creating pieces of such enduring value, they encourage others to examine their choices about the objects with which they surround themselves, and choose quality and durability over trends of fashion and disposability.

​

Skram products are made with a deep awareness of the impact their manufacturing has on the community and on our planet. They use only non-toxic adhesives and industrial strength, low-VOC water-based polyurethane finishes. The timber is locally sourced as much as possible, and as a company, Skram is committed to broadening their offering of certified timber options as they become available in consistent quantity and quality.

​

In 2008, Skram transitioned to a LEED contributing, formaldehyde-free, 100% pre-consumer recycled content substrate in all veneered products.  In 2015, they installed a rooftop solar array at their Burlington, North Carolina facility. The resulting energy directly powers the machinery, while excess energy is fed back into the traditional power grid. Skram is proud to say that this has lead to an annual offset of over 30,000 pounds of coal and over 50,000 pounds of CO2.

 

Skram is a member of American Forests, the Rainforest Alliance and the Sustainable Furnishings Council.

All Skram products are made in their entirety in their own solar powered facility in North Carolina.
