We buy timber from local suppliers, thus reducing CO2 emissions. We buy products that are not available on the Latvian market from the neighboring countries of Lithuania and Estonia, eliminating intermediaries and reducing delivery routes. For clients in Norway and Denmark, in cooperation with the customer’s designers, we create furniture and doors with high added value.

Negotiations are underway for serial production of bespoke furniture for a client in Sweden. Also, in parallel, negotiations are being conducted with a customer in Germany about furniture for CLT modular houses.”
