In 1956, the Clayton brand began when founder Jim Clayton sold his first home and launched the dream of making homeownership attainable for everyone across America. In 1970, Clayton opened the doors of our first home building facility, TRU® Halls, in Knoxville, Tennessee.

Over half a century later, our commitment endures to provide quality, attainable housing while constantly improving the experience for Clayton team members and customers.

We're committed to a better way of home building, with environmental practices at the forefront of the way we manufacture homes.

Decreasing waste and water consumption, increasing recycling, and building homes with energy-efficient features are four ways we aim to decrease our environmental impact.
