HISTORIEN
furnipart is founded by Lars Ole Hansen, who converts two bedrooms inside his private
home into offices and hires a single employee. furnipart grows and Lars Ole Hansen
moves furnipart into bigger premises. The company now occupies 160 m2. Investments
are made in the design of handles using in-house tools, creating the entire foundation for
furnipart’s current and future collections.
The handles are made from metal, where previously they were primarily
made from plastic and wood. furnipart grows and production is outsourced,
sends designs and tools to external production facilities.
“furnipart is constantly renewing and developing products.
We make multiple handle collections each year,
and we’re the go-to source for the latest trends.“
With the outsourcing of production there is an increasing need for warehouse space
and architect Tommy Falch is asked to design the current main office in Hinnerup.
More and more handles are developed and designed by both Danish and international
designers. This means there is an increasing need to secure furnipart’s intellectual
property rights in Denmark and abroad.
Quality assurance and quality manageme become increasingly important. furnipart
employs personnel to carry out quality assurance tasks in production and this
becomes an important supplement to the quality control that is carried out
in Hinnerup, where the company carries out testing in its own laboratory.
