LOS ANGELES—Home furnishings maker Abbyson has expanded its AbbySky manufacturing facility in a move aimed to meet the company’s growing motion upholstery category. Furniture Today reports that the new manufacturing space is 5 million square feet, including 50 total assembly lines, a showroom and an R&D building.

"AbbySky plans to dedicate exclusive production lines to key retailers that are partnered for growth," says Rodd Rafieha, senior vice president at Abbyson. "This will, in turn, provide faster delivery, better quality, and much better efficiency for our partners.”

The expanded motion category includes new styles and functionality, such as top-grain leather motion sofa groups with P3 functionality consisting of power recline, lumbar, headrests and specially built-in media consoles with built-in remotes. The updated line includes 400 SKUs and 30 upholstery groups.

“The goal is to continue to be a value-driven manufacturer and brand within the home furnishings industry,” adds Rafieha.
