Export City Chair Development Department Hero

Chair Development Department

The chair development department is responsible for predicting the appearance and characteristics of chairs before the actual production process, thereby saving time and resources throughout the entire process.

Experts in the development department use state-of-the-art technologies and materials to create visual representations of future chairs, taking into account functionality, aesthetics, and ergonomics.

Fabric Cutting Department

The fabric cutting department represents one of the initial steps in the production process, where material cutting is performed based on precise templates from the development department and cutting instructions. Thanks to a combination of extensive experience, trained personnel, and the latest CNC machines, we achieve the highest level of precision and efficiency in the cutting process.

The fabric cutting department averages about 30,000 meters of material cut per month.

Leather Cutting Department

The leather cutting department is a key part of the production process, where precision and control directly influence the final appearance of the chair.

Leather processing itself is carried out on modern CNC cutters from the renowned manufacturer Gerber Technology. Thanks to the training of our workers and the use of the latest machines, we achieve maximum leather utilization and guarantee superior quality in every piece.

Foam Processing Department

Sponge processing is an indispensable step in our production chain, where each piece of sponge is cut according to defined drawings, which must be perfectly precise, because the appearance of the finished product depends on the sponge itself. The department is equipped with modern CNC machines manufactured by Fecken-Kirfel GmbH & Co. KG.

We also have several specialized machines that allow us to achieve any desired sponge shape, from milling, beveling, to 3D shapes.

The polyurethane molding department is a relatively new project within our production. Equipped with 10 injection molds mounted on a carousel, it enables efficient and precise production of polyurethane parts. Additionally, we use a Cell Crusher from the renowned manufacturer Orodjarna & Inženiring Alba d.o.o., which further enhances our production process.
