Arco was established 119 years ago. Since then, the family business has focused on the design, development and manufacture of handcrafted wooden tables using both traditional craftsmanship and modern technology. All the wood we use is FSC® or PEFC certified and therefore STIP certified. The wafer-thin yet sturdy Slim table by designer Bertjan Pot (2005) owes its strength to a unique steel-sandwich construction topped with a layer of wood. Each material has been used in an honest way: metal for strong construction and wood for tactility and beauty.
CSrugs manufactures bespoke luxury rugs. Our production process combines the precision of high-tech machinery with the sensitivity and craftsmanship of our design studio. Material and colour combinations, as well as the shape and dimensions of a rug, are determined in close consultation with the customer. For our Circular rugs, we use only yarns left over from the production of other rugs. Together with designer Christien Meindertsma, CSrugs is also exploring the possibilities of processing Dutch wool into yarn, fabric, knits and tufted carpets.
Sustainability, quality and comfort have been the starting points for Gelderland since 1936. In collaboration with established and emerging designers, Gelderland creates timeless furniture with respect for people and the environment. These handmade products last for generations. The 4800 sofa is a modern classic and an integral part of the collection. Designed by Henk Vos in 1982, its elegant high armrests make it immediately recognisable. The upholstery material used here was developed by Christien Meindertsma. She used 20% remnants from the Gelderland factory, mixed with 80% wool from Rotterdam sheep.
LABEL Vandenberg, co-founded in 1991 by designer Gerard van den Berg, focuses on the design and production of high-quality seating. That remains a constant with the third generation now at the helm. The distinctive combination of understated Dutch design, craftsmanship and a love of pure materials can be seen in the Hidde armchair (2006), a permanent fixture in the collection. The raw beauty of a baseball glove is translated into a comfortable and sustainably produced piece of furniture.
Rooted in Brabant, Lande Family is the producer and owner of five strong brands, some in the field of home and project furnishings. These include the prestigious Artifort label and the energetic start-up A Lott of Space, each of which responds to the demand for sustainability in its own way. A Lott of Space puts circularity at the heart of its product development, with sofas that grow with you. At Artifort, it’s the timeless quality of design and finish that outlasts every fashion. Geoffrey Harcourt’s F588 armchair (1966) is living proof of this.
Leolux is a family-owned company, now almost 90 years old, that manufactures designer furniture to order for an international market. This is produced in our own factories in Venlo and Szolnok, Hungary, using high-quality materials and with an eye for people and the environment. We are increasingly investing in sustainable materials and production methods, as can be seen in the Caruzzo armchair by designer Frans Schrofer (2015). Here it is upholstered in special Corus leather, a natural product that is Limburgish through and through and ultimately biodegradable.
