MITY-LITE BLENDS QUALITY, VALUE & SUSTAINABILITY INTO NEW MADERA TABLE LINE
OREM, Utah — December 14, 2009 — Mity-Lite Inc., the leading manufacturer of durable, lightweight furniture systems, today launched its new Madera table line that keeps the Company’s original promise to bring quality, value-priced, sustainable furniture systems to the commercial marketplace.
More user-friendly than its plywood cousins, the Madera table incorporates a new reinforced and replaceable corner design along with increased leg room, easy-grip aluminum runners for secure hand transport, surfaces that are easy to clean and maintain, and is designed to withstand harsh commercial environments.
According to Mity-Lite Product Management Vice President Jeff Meek, “The Madera line represents Mity-Lite’s ability to react to customer demand for a cost-competitive, quality table. This hybrid model with patent-pending replaceable corner construction is perfect for buyers seeking a lower overall cost of ownership without sacrificing quality.”
The plywood and metal-legged table is manufactured with a stain-resistant ABS surface. Unlike typical wood tables, a Madera rectangular table can withstand a two-foot drop on its corners, which are easily replaceable, if necessary. With a limited five-year warranty, Madera tables are available in six rectangular table sizes (from 18” x 72” to 30” x 96”) and one 60” round table size.
Madera tables are immediately available worldwide. For more information call 800.327.1692 or 801.224.0589; www.mitylite.com.

MITY-LITE HONORED FOR INNOVATION & MANUFACTURING EXCELLENCE
Mity-Lite Selected As 2009 Manufacturer of the Year (100+ Employees)
OREM, Utah — November 2, 2009 — Utah’s Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP Utah) today recognized Orem-based Mity-Lite Inc., as its “2009 Manufacturer of the Year – 100+ Employees.” Utah Lt. Governor Greg Bell presented the award to the leading manufacturer of lightweight durable tables and seating products during a presentation today at the State Capital.
In selecting Mity-Lite, MEP Utah recognized the company’s senior management team for transforming its operations into an innovative, performance-driven organization since being acquired in July 2007.
“It takes a talented individual with experience and vision to drive this level of operational change,” said Mity-Lite CEO Randy Hales. “It quickly became clear that Don Blohm was the ideal leader to drive this change when he joined the company as our Chief Operations Officer in September 2008.”
Mity-Lite has undergone a complete transformation in terms of structure, business processes, and operations to support a product marketing focus. This transformation is notable and unique as it has been accomplished in a remarkably short time with significant improvements in financial performance, award-winning new product offerings, and a more efficient, safer, and stable workplace for Mity-Lite employees.
As one of the key business drivers, the company has encouraged “innovation” in all aspects of the business, which has spawned the launch of several significant, game-changing products just beginning to impact the revenue and profit streams of the company. Among the company’s most recent new product introductions are the Al-13 Aluminum Table line and the Mesh∙One Folding Chair, which was recognized with an Innovation Award earlier this year by the Utah Technology Council.
ABOUT MANUFACTURING EXTENSION PARTNERSHIP
MEP Utah is a non-profit partnership between the U.S. Department of Commerce, the State of Utah, and the private sector. MEP is a nationwide network of not-for-profit centers in nearly 350 locations nationwide. Its sole purpose is to provide small- and medium-sized manufacturers with the services they need to succeed.

MITY-LITE INTRODUCES THE MESH∙ONE FOLDING CHAIR
Announces MESH∙ONE Distribution Agreement with StageRight Corporation
OREM, Utah — August 10, 2009 — Mity-Lite, the leading manufacturer of durable, lightweight furniture systems, today announces a category-changing product introduction for the folding chair market through its introduction of the Mesh∙One Folding Chair.
Incorporating a patented design, Mesh∙One revolutionizes the standard folding chair through the proprietary application of commercial-grade elastomeric mesh. Mity-Lite replaced the traditionally uncomfortable qualities of hard chair backs and seats with RipStop mesh that adjusts to people of all shapes and postures. The result is a chair that conforms to every individual’s unique shape and truly becomes the "ONE chair that fits every BODY."
Mity-Lite CEO Randy Hales adds, "Because the mesh is flexible and promotes air circulation, the person sitting through a lengthy meeting won’t become uncomfortable like they do when sitting on the rigid surfaces of traditional folding chairs. We have brought the comfort and performance of high-end office chairs
to the folding chair category with the Mesh∙One."
With availability of the Mesh∙One Folding Chair just underway, StageRight, an innovative provider of best-in-class furnishing systems for public assembly, has reached a distribution agreement with Mity-Lite. StageRight will begin marketing the Mesh∙One to its customers this fall.
"Audience comfort is paramount to the success of an event," said StageRight CEO Dave Rogers. "We are pleased to be able to be among the first to offer Mesh∙One to our customers."
In addition to its high degree of comfort, the Mesh∙One carries Mity-Lite’s hallmark durable and lightweight attributes. Testing has demonstrated that the 10.7 lb. Mesh∙One can support over 1,000 lbs. The chair’s thin profile when folded makes it easy to carry and store. Made in the USA, the Mesh∙One Folding Chair carries a manufacturer's 10-year limited warranty.
The Mesh∙One Folding Chair will begin shipping in September 2009 and is available worldwide.

MITY-LITE INTRODUCES SUSTAINABLE, ECO-FRIENDLY ALUMINUM TABLE LINE
OREM, Utah — June 16, 2009 — Mity-Lite, the leading manufacturer of durable, lightweight furniture systems, today announces the first in a series of sustainable product offerings the company will make this year. Immediately available through the company’s business channel is the new
Al-13 Folding Table. Made entirely of aluminum—one of the world’s most recycled materials—the eco-friendly Al-13 Aluminum Table incorporates sustainable design practices to support growing demand for products that can be recycled.
Incorporating a technologically advanced manufacturing process, Mity-Lite’s Al-13 Aluminum Tables offer the customer increased structural integrity and reduced weight. As such, the Al-13 is 20 percent lighter than a conventional folding table, yet strong enough to hold more than 100 times its own weight.
“Green practices significantly impact today’s manufacturing decisions,” said Mity-Lite CEO Randy Hales. “The Al-13 is a tribute to Mity-Lite’s manufacturing team. The seamless, one-piece table surface combined with a patent-pending, leg-nesting feature results in a sustainable design that is as functional as it is aesthetically pleasing.”
The all-aluminum tables, which are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, incorporate a UV-stable powder coating. The seamless table surface is easy to clean and can be used with or without linens. The table also includes reinforced edges and corners and is designed with durability in mind—they will not rust, crack, warp, dent, or give-in to rough handling. Al-13 Tables are initially available in two rectangular table sizes (18” x 72” and 30” x 72”) and one 60” round table size.
Designed to meet the environmentally sensitive purchasing requirements of the company’s business channel customers, Al-13 Tables are immediately available worldwide. Call 800.327.1692
or 801.224.0589.
