ADI Art Design International is a Saint-Hubert, Quebec manufacturer of ergonomic office chairs and lounge seating, operating a 50,000 square foot facility since 1986. It is owned by Éric Morin, who also owns sister company Bouty, a Quebec seating maker founded in 1949, and the two report jointly on social and environmental practices.

Factors

Ownership

100.0 reported

CA 100%

ADI's 2024 social responsibility report, produced jointly with sister company Bouty, names Éric Morin as owner, and a joint energy and environmental policy is signed by him as president of both A.D.I. and Bouty. Bouty's own history page describes a family transition from founder Eugène Bouthillier's daughters to Éric Morin, who joined as a partner in 2009. A federal Corporations Canada search for both 'ADI Art Design' and 'Bouty' returned no results, and the Registraire des entreprises du Québec was unreachable (403, bot-blocked) during this check, so no registry filing could confirm the entity or ownership stake directly.

Manufacturing

100.0 reported

CA 100%

ADI states its chairs are made at its own facility in Saint-Hubert, Quebec, and its 2024 social responsibility report shows and describes employees at that plant cutting, sewing, stuffing, and assembling the product. No second manufacturing site, contract factory, or overseas production is mentioned anywhere on the vendor's site or in its reporting.

People

CA 100%

ADI's only disclosed site is its Saint-Hubert, Quebec head office, and its joint social responsibility report with Bouty lists a second facility for Bouty in Saint-Leonard, Quebec; no location outside Quebec is named anywhere on the vendor's site or in its reporting. The report describes a culturally diverse workforce but frames every employee as working at 'our facilities', which it locates only in Quebec.

Inputs

CA 30% · EU 5% · other 25% · US 40%

ADI's materials catalogue lists named fabric suppliers including Duvaltex, which operates separate Canada, United States, and Europe divisions, alongside mills such as Guilford of Maine (Maine), Momentum, and Mayer that are commonly US-based, without stating how much volume comes from each. Steel, which ADI says is the main component at 80 percent of chair weight, and mechanisms and casters have no disclosed country of origin, so the overall split is an estimate that leans on typical North American contract-furniture sourcing rather than a confirmed source.
