About Our Company Douron Incorporated was founded in 1969 as a school furniture dealership, and for the past 38 years has seen controlled growth as the largest and leading full service educational furniture dealer in the Mid-Atlantic region. Servicing the areas of Maryland, Northern Virginia, Delaware, and the District of Columbia, Douron has the experience to complete projects on time and under-budget. We service the public educational sector as well as the private school market. Our mission is to be a provider of quality educational furniture in our region, by offering a complete line of services enabling us to work as partners with a wide variety of customers. We are technically advanced and efficient, so that the ordering process will be a simple and pleasant experience for our customers. Douron believes in being honest, professional, and responsive in all of our dealings. Whether the requirement is of modest design or of larger scale, our staff (professional sales consultants, project managers, installers, service technicians and customer service personnel) stands ready to support your needs. With over 80,000 square feet of office and warehouse space, along with 22 company-owned and operated delivery vehicles, we can handle delivery and installation of all orders - no matter how large or how small. We are the largest school furniture dealership in the Mid-Atlantic region. From order inception to final completion, our corporate philosophy stresses service, responsiveness and attention to detail as the prime factors ensuring the client’s satisfaction. Our management has over 150 years of combined experience. This gives us a keen understanding of educational and classroom environments (both public and private, from Kindergarten through College) in addition to architectural and design aspects, providing our clients with furnishings and equipment not only to address their current needs, but taking into consideration their future needs as well. We feel that it is vital to have a complete understanding of the parameters of a project, so that any product we recommend will solve problems, rather than create them. On-site inspections and field dimensions are considered prior to ordering any furnishings, ensuring a smooth, trouble-free installation. We use EDI (electronic data interchange) for processing orders with our larger vendors. This increases order accuracy and expedites processing and production times. Representing over 100 school furnishing manufacturers, Douron can match specific requirements to the most appropriate and cost-effective product. We know the products that will hold up in classroom settings. Our vendor base provides our clients with the most appropriate, competitively priced solutions available for any need because we seek out the best quality manufacturers with proven performance. We recognize private schools often have requirements for higher end products. Our vendors can fulfill these design-oriented specifications with ease. Libraries and media centers often have specialized and distinct furniture requirements. Douron can meet these requirements, utilizing both standard and custom designed furnishings as needed to meet the desired specifications and look. We ensure our customers get the best value for years to come. Our buying power assures the best possible pricing. We are even able to offer private schools the discounting often only seen in the public school market.
