Pacific Yurts
Established in 1978 by Alan Bair, Pacific Yurts is the original designer and manufacturer of the modern yurt: A round recreational living structure that is easy to install, strong and comfortable year round. For more than 30 years Pacific Yurts has maintained its status as the world’s leading yurt manufacturing company by continuously implementing technical and structural advancements, adding innovative options and maintaining its strong customer service commitment. This Cottage Grove company has won numerous awards, including the Industrial Fabrics Association International Achievement Award for new products, a productivity award for manufacturing excellence from the U.S. Senate, and State and Regional Exporter of the Year from the U.S. Small Business Administration.
Today, Pacific Yurts can be found on nearly every continent in a diverse array of personal, business and government settings. They are used as campground rentals, ski huts, meeting halls, resort and vacation lodging, backyard room additions, personal retreats, health and fitness centers and much more. Pacific Yurts combine the best experiences of tent camping and cabin life; you can hear the comforting sounds of nature while remaining warm and cozy inside. The unique appeal of the yurt has greatly contributed to the economic success of many parks and campgrounds. For example, up and down Oregon’s Coast, Pacific Yurts provide cozy year-round accommodations that attract and protect visitors in all manner of weather.
Since its inception, Pacific Yurts has maintained a steadfast commitment to environmentally responsible business practices and giving back to the community. Indeed, the founding idea for the company was to help people get closer to nature while minimizing their impact on it. Pacific Yurts hand selects second-growth lumber from carefully managed forests, choosing the appropriate grade and length of boards for each yurt component to minimize waste during production. Sawdust and small wood trim pieces left over from the production process are recycled to local gardeners and crafters. The company has also recently begun using wind power to generate at least 25 percent of the electricity in its manufacturing facilities.
