A study of quark models for many-hadron systems is presented. The starting point in the construction of these nonrelativistic models is a proper formal definition of the concept of color singlet and nonsinglet clusters in a multiquark system which respects the exchange symmetry of the quarks. This definition provides a natural way to impose saturation of the confining forces.
