AGATI, INC.
CHICAGO, IL

AGATI, INC., established in 2002 and based in Chicago, Illinois, excels in designing and manufacturing high-quality public space furniture. Led by founder Joe Agati, who learned his craft under the renowned glass blowing Master Wendell Castle-the father of art furniture-AGATI's journey started back in 1970 when it first produced durable library furnishings using innovative techniques acquired during Joe’s apprenticeship. The company has grown significantly over the years. Thanks to recommendations from librarians, architects, and designers, AGATI now supplies furniture for a variety of public settings beyond libraries, including universities, colleges, airports, and more. At present, Joey Agati takes charge of design at AGATI, continuing a family tradition focused on innovative design, superior construction, and outstanding customer service. AGATI's strength lies in its dedicated teams that design and engineer furniture tailored to how people use public spaces. This involves creating furniture that is not only sturdy but also enhances productivity and comfort-think charging tables at airports designed with built-in power options to meet the needs of today’s travelers. Maintaining a spirit of resilience and adaptability, AGATI ensures its products reflect evolving trends and customer demands, as highlighted in their annual report from January 6, 2025. The company’s for-profit status-formally incorporated on March 15, 2002-facilitates ongoing growth and innovation.
