Employing approximately 420 employees, this Germany-based contract furnisher produces round about 300,000 seating units in its 2 factories every year. One of their major strengths is the exceptional production depth with all important parts being produced in-house.

Made in Germany – with social responsibility for the region.
Kusch+Co as an internationally operating contract furnisher remains faithful to the Sauerland region as its production site, fully aware of its social responsibility as pillar of the local economy. This medium-sized family business, now run by the third generation, is a convincing proof that tradition may go hand in hand with innovation.

To Kusch+Co, entrepreneurial success is an incentive and moral obligation to actively promote social projects.

Crème de la crème.
Instead of following in other’s footsteps, Kusch+Co is motived by a drive for innovation with the aim of creating unique products capable of surprising and mesmerizing. The revolutionary bench series 8000 has been designed by the creative heads of the renowned Porsche Design Studio. Norbert Geelen is one of Kusch+Co’s top designers, always coming up with out of the box solutions. He has penned the prominent series 8200 Volpe as well as the universally suited, all-rounder series uni_verso, giving a fresh impetus to the contract furnishing trade.

Superior craftsmanship.
‘Quality is irreplaceable’. Coined 70 years ago, this mission statement is still the cornerstone of Kusch+Co’s corporate philosophy. Each new series has to pass numerous quality tests, simulating the harsh reality of a contract chair’s life cycle. Each Kusch+Co product is characterized by superior craftsmanship. Before receiving the Kusch+Co seal of quality, each model has to stand up to the scrutiny of the company-own quality assurance, using far more exacting criteria than stipulated in any certification scheme. Each Kusch+Co product lives up to their high quality standards.

Sustainability.
Kusch+Co products are valued for their durability and optimum recyclability with sustainable properties taken into account from the very start of the development stage. In their view, R&D is an all-embracing process, ranging from an environmentally compatible material selection and design to eco-efficient manufacturing and finishing processes, always with an eye on the carbon footprint. DQS certified Environmental Product Declarations in compliance with DIN 14021 are available for all products. At the end of their long-lasting life cycle, all materials are labelled for subsequent sorting and recycling.
