Why Uniek?
We take a thoughtful and educated approach to our development process, utilizing our cross-functional team to design and curate on-trend collections. Our passionate team analyzes profitable opportunities in the marketplace while taking advantage of emerging décor trends.
Sustainability &
Social Responsibility
These are guiding principles of the work we do. We believe in being a responsible steward of the environment, focusing efforts on reducing our footprint, and supporting the communities we are a part of.
We recently invested in 100% LED lighting at our facilities ensuring energy conservation across our daily operations. We also work closely with local sustainability organizations to stay abreast of best practices and local initiatives. Our employees actively participate in Dane County’s Adopt-a-Highway program. Through efforts such as these, Uniek is able to give back to the community in meaningful ways.
Research & Development
We take a thoughtful and educated approach to our design process. Before we begin new product development, the Uniek team conducts thorough research of the marketplace and current décor trends, including:
- Cross-functional team audit of the marketplace’s current assortment to identify incremental sales opportunities for our retail customers, the marketplace and our product portfolio
- International trend scouting using many respected sources to identify emerging fashion and décor trends
- Development meetings with design, product development, sourcing, and engineering teams to create the most cost-effective, trend-right designs
- Consumer testing of key concepts and products
Our approach unites today’s décor trends with design innovation and value.
Quality
We stand behind our products with the highest commitment to quality and extraordinary customer service. Our products have allowed Uniek to become one of the largest, most successful home décor accent suppliers and manufacturers in North America.
We ensure that we achieve all standards and compliance regulations. From our designers to engineers, our team guarantees each product performs to our customer’s satisfaction.
