Founded in 1967 by Irving Lubin, Elran was the first Canadian company to specialize in reclining furniture. Until 1979, Elran manufactured only one type of product, the reclining chair. 1980 marked a very important year for Elran when it became the first company to introduce reclining loveseats and sofas on the market. Today, Elran is a leader in the industry and offers a complete range of reclining chairs, loveseats, sofas and many other options. With over 150 collections of various styles – traditional, transitional and contemporary – available in more than 550 fabrics and leathers.
