Company Profile
LanPar, Inc., dba Oakwood Interiors was
founded in 1982 and incorporated in California in 1984. The
corporation is wholly- owned by Nick Lanphier and Larry Parnell,
who also actively manage the firm as its chief executive officers.
Oakwood Interiors has been structured and equipped to
provide the home furnishings market with the best values possible
in medium to high-end hardwood furniture and complementary
products. Each of our unique products is identified with an
individual serial number on a metal I.D. plate, providing
continued growth in value as the product ages, as well as
individual identity of every piece for insurance and security
purposes. In 1996, Oakwood Interiors substantially expanded
capacity by centralizing all of its facilities to a ten acre
site in Ontario, California owned by Nick Lanphier, the company's
CEO. This 180,000 Sq. Ft. manufacturing and shipping facility
will allow Oakwood Interiors to continue to progress
in volume and quality well into the future. The 85,000 Sq.
Ft. mill room houses some of the woodworking industry's finest
machinery and technology available. In addition to the outstanding
complement of standard production equipment, Oakwood Interiors
has developed a complete in-house carving department, and
an independent quality assurance and development department.
Oakwood Interiors consistently high quality
is also the result of a production team of about 500 employees
committed to quality and productivity, in that order. Employee
turnover is quite low. In its brief history, Oakwood Interiors
has generated steady growth in both sales and profits, and
enjoys a healthy banking relationship with appropriate open
lines of credit. All accounts receivable are covered under
credit Insurance coverage, with consumer credit lines subject
to approval by the carrier.
All collections offer unique features such as hidden secret
compartments and selected drawers with aromatic cedar lining.
Each piece of furniture we produce comes with a metal serial
number tag to verify originality and authenticity.
Each step in the construction of each piece is continuously
re-evaluated to strive for ever higher standards of quality
and value. Visit our Facts and Features page and discover
what makes Oakwood Interior's furniture the heirlooms that
will be treasured for generations to come.
Oakwood Interiors uses the finest oak woods to create
our elegant traditional designs. The beauty of oak is its
natural character and strength developed by the environment
over time. The warmth and charm of oak is also its uniqueness,
it can appear so similar but yet be so different in grain
pattern, color and appearance. No two pieces of wood are ever
exactly alike, even from the same tree. Due to the difference
in natural color and grain each piece of wood will react differently
to the finishing materials used. These differences in grain
and in color in the fine oak woods we use are natural occurrences
that add to the wood's beauty and character.
