National Upholstery Association

Our history: The National Upholstery Association was created by the upholstery community itself. A handful of community members took the initiative, rolled up their sleeves, and got to work. Welcome to the movement! Our Mission & Vision: The Mission of the National Upholstery Association is to work together with the greater upholstery community to support and advance the field of professional upholstery.

We see upholsterers as a diverse community of smart, determined people who are excited to work together to accomplish great things in the field of upholstery. Guiding Principles: Knowledge & Learning, Diversity, Accessibility & Openness, Community, Outreach & Partnership, Creativity & Innovation.
