Does IRIS have a website and have their molds changed recently?

Hey all,

When my first (and hopefully only!) Dark Age ended, I invested in quite a
few IRIS storage units (like the ones seen here:
http://www.hangercity.com/6710drch.html) to begin properly sorting my
collection.  As it grew I found the need to purchase additional units and
discovered to my dismay that they were not the same.  The new units had a
slightly different mold for the drawer and the entire unit was 1 inch
shorter from front to back, making them incompatible stacking-wise with the
units I already had.  I assumed the mold had been changed and dealt with it
grudgingly.

Recently I've decided I must do another large-scale sort and must purchase
more shelving units to accomplish this.  However, in my trip to Target, I've
found a new and possibly third iteration of the mold on the shelves.  I'm
more than a little concerned that my desire to have a shelving system that's
100% compatible and of a uniform color (all white frames) may be impossible
unless purchased all at once (EXPENSIVE!).  Does anyone know if the molds
are changed every few years or is Target just trying to mix it up
style-wise?  I want to be sure before I spend any more moola.

Thanks in advance!

Dave S.

(...) I know that Iris had a (mostly useless) English-language Website in January. I don't know what happened to it. But I recall that it said that Iris prides itself on coming up with [a large number] new molds every year (month?). They seem to be (...) (19 years ago, 17-Oct-05, to lugnet.storage)
