Flat-pack furniture
Our flat-pack solutions combine space-efficient design with durable construction for global logistics. Using patented membrane pressing technology, we create ready-to-assemble furniture that maintains structural integrity while reducing transportation emissions. Clients benefit from cost-effective, scalable solutions tailored to modern living spaces.
Sustainable materials
We develop high-performance materials using recycled polymers and post-industrial waste. Products like RESPET (95% recycled PET) and REXLAM (95% recycled polypropylene) offer premium finishes with reduced environmental impact. Our circular economy approach ensures materials maintain technical performance while meeting sustainability targets for interior design projects.
Surface technologies
Advanced surface treatments include Mirror PET, MAXXIGLOSS, and 3B Touch technologies. These solutions provide scratch resistance, UV stability, and tactile qualities while maintaining environmental compliance. Our 3BLab facility conducts 12,000+ annual tests to ensure finishes meet international durability standards for commercial and residential applications.
Co-development
We partner with global brands through our 5-piece complete line and wrapping technologies. This approach integrates client specifications with our material expertise to create customized solutions. From concept to production, our engineering team ensures technical feasibility and cost efficiency for large-scale manufacturing requirements.
Contract solutions
Tailored furniture systems for hospitality and commercial spaces combine design flexibility with industrial precision. Through our subsidiary Uno Contract, we deliver complete interior projects using standardized components that maintain quality across large installations. Solutions incorporate fire-resistant materials and comply with international safety regulations.
