In 1941 Krueger International (KI) embarked on a journey to manufacture sustainably
designed commercial office furniture. The Original Equipment Industries (OEI) division of KI
was launched in 1986 to become the preferred partner of Correctional Industry (CI) programs
nationwide and bring that functional ergonomic furniture to the people they serve.
Since then, we at OEI have continuously updated our portfolio to meet the needs of the
modern marketplace, while leveraging our manufacturing expertise, product knowledge and
support services to ensure that our CI partners achieve their program development goals.
We are the trusted market resource for our CI partners. By providing not only the
durable, sustainably designed products and relevant innovation their customers want,
but also the knowledge and programs our partners need to create solutions for themselves,
we positively impact their mission.
We strive to embody the following core values as we carry out our mission:
The OEI division partners with Correctional
Industry programs at the federal and state level.
We have been a service provider and vendor
to the UNICOR Office Furniture Group (OFG)
for over 40 years, and also work with state
CI programs across the country, meeting
each partner at their level of capability.
With designs that reflect each market’s
aesthetics and meet specific requirements for
function, durability, flexibility and technology
integration, our products are the choice for
government agencies operating in K-12 and
higher education, corporate and healthcare
environments. We are happy to direct
interested clients to the appropriate CI partner
in order to complete their purchase.
Simply put, at OEI we help our partners make smart contract furniture decisions by offering
expert advice, design options and custom solutions.
• Confidence to meet you where you are in your manufacturing journey
• Expertise to help your program develop and meet your goals
• Product development capabilities from design and engineering though quality control
• Support over entire project life cycle from spaceplanning through installation
• Custom solutions developed with end users to satisfy their vision
Most importantly, what sets us apart from our competition is our level of commitment to our
partners’ success from start to finish.
