There are a lot of sofa manufacturers on the German furniture market. With our list we would like to bring a little light into the darkness. We present 10 of the most famous German sofa manufacturers. Many of them still say “Made in Germany”. The photos were taken at the international furniture and interior design fair | imm cologne 2020.

Rolf Benz – nothing but wunderbar

Sofa ADDIT von ROLF BENZ
ADDIT by Rolf Benz – German Design Award Winner 2020.

Rolf Benz is probably the best known German upholstered furniture brand and since its inception has stood for good design and quality workmanship. If the sofa manufacturer used to stand for luxury and brought a touch of decadence with it, it has already arrived in the middle of society for some time.

With the idea of the living landscape, the trained upholsterer Rolf Benz founded the company “bmp” (Benz Möbel Programme) in 1964 to develop novel and functional sofas. The somewhat bumpy company name was changed to “Rolf Benz” in 1972. In the following years, the company developed into the market leader in the high-quality upholstered furniture segment.

I find fulfillment in the place that satisfies my longing.

ROLF BENZ

Company founder Rolf Benz left the company in 1998. The Hüls(ta) Group became the company owner. Since 2018, the sofa manufacturer from Baden-Württemberg has been in Chinese hands.

The sofa classics from Rolf Benz

Probably the most famous Rolf Benz sofas are the “322”, “6500”, “Linea” and “Dono”. The Rolf Benz 2000 living landscape gained fame through its TV presence. For years, Wetten Dass host Thomas Gottschalk welcomed his guests on this upholstered furniture.

COR stands for new seating forms and already in 1964 placed an absolute upholstered furniture classic: Conseta, one of the first modular systems, designed by Friedrich-Wilhelm Möller.

Sustainability in raw material procurement and production and the associated environmental protection play an important role in the corporate culture. All woods come from 100 percent sustainably managed forests. Selected materials for the upholstery and the covers make every COR sofa a high-quality piece of designer furniture.
