The Spanish contract furniture manufacturer brings B-Corp-certified, LEED Platinum, and WELL Platinum manufacturing, along with five decades of award-winning design, to North American specifiers.

CHICAGO, IL, MAY 5, 2026 – Actiu, one of Europe’s most recognized contract furniture manufacturers, is actively seeking established rep groups as it expands across the U.S. market.

For rep principals evaluating new lines, the timing is significant. The North American contract market is navigating a moment defined by heightened specification scrutiny: clients want furniture that performs beautifully, meets rigorous sustainability standards, and is backed by a manufacturer with the depth to support complex projects. Actiu checks each of those boxes and then some.

Founded in 1968 in Castalla, Spain, Actiu is a vertically integrated manufacturer with complete control over design, materials, and production. Its 150,000-square-meter campus holds LEED Platinum and WELL Platinum certifications, among the most demanding operational standards in the built environment, and the company carries B-Corp certification, reflecting the family-owned business’s commitment to people and planet that goes well beyond compliance. For reps whose clients are writing sustainability requirements into every RFP, Actiu’s story is one of the most defensible in the industry.

“We’re thrilled to grow our Actiu family of reps across the US,” said Ryan Featherston, Sales Manager for the US. “We’re just getting started, and we’re already getting a lot of great feedback from designers and specifiers across the country.”

The design portfolio is equally compelling. Developed in collaboration with some of Europe’s most celebrated designers, Actiu’s collection spans Executive seating, soft seating, acoustic solutions, and collaborative furniture, all unified by a coherent design language and the brand philosophy, Feel Good. Work Better. The range serves commercial office, hospitality, public space, healthcare, and education environments, giving Rep Principals a versatile offering that can follow a client relationship across project types and sectors. With distribution across more than 90 markets, the infrastructure and specification support to back a growing US business is already in place.

Actiu will exhibit at NeoCon 2026 at the Merchandise Mart, Floor 11, Suite 107, an opportunity for Rep Principals, A&D Partners, Dealers, and End Clients to experience the collection firsthand and meet the US team. The debut marks the beginning of a sustained investment in the North American market, and the company is looking for partners who want to be part of that story from the ground up.

The company is now accepting US rep groups. For more information, specification support, samples, and product information, contact Ryan Featherston, Sales Manager – US at ryan.featherston@actiu.com
