Foreword
Exportrepertorium 2018 Belgium boasts an exceptionally high export quota, which makes it one of the most active suppliers in the European furniture industry landscape. This export magazine is a vivid testimony of this. A cascade of diverse challenges such as structural price erosion, concentrations, shifting cost rations, blurring of lines between branches and new distribution formats are all manifest within our market. The level of professionality with which the Belgian furniture industry responds to these phenomena is surprising. Furniture distribution both in Europe and beyond the European borders is destined for our most important clientele. The challenge to continuously inspire the trade and build long term relationships with the clientele is part of the DNA of the Belgian furniture industry. Simply supplying furniture is no longer sufficient. What matters is the added value that comes with the products. Our industry offers inspiring collections, made with the latest techniques, innovative functions and exciting colour palettes to the stationary trade. Flair and aura dominate. Through showroom visits and personal in-store advice the customer can be made enthusiastic for an individually customized interior made with the Belgian interior fashion. Collections are expanded and made even more complete allowing exclusivities to be more accessible. No-name concepts are complemented by marketing brands. The complete interior concepts with their own brands and logistic support all contribute to seducing the consumer. Individuality can even be found in serial production because of the integrated flexibility of the Belgian industry. The partnership extends from deliberation during the building of the collection up until the final delivery with production numbers set according to the desired number of products. The growing demand by both mega groups and branch companies to develop individual models is something a number of Belgian industry partners can meet. This export magazine can be seen as a menu for the Belgian furniture industry. More information can be found on the BelgoFurn website (www.belgofurn.com) or on the individual website of each company represented here. However, nothing surpasses individual experience. Every year the complete Belgian collection is presented to the trade business in prime conditions at the Brussels Furniture Fair. Definitely worth a visit. I wish you a positive partnership with the Belgian furniture industry.

Evan’s strong collection The West Flemish Evan produces furniture in the middle price range. The manufacturer produces furniture for the living- and the bedroom and also for the teenage bedroom. All of this is finished with high-quality and carefully selected textured melamine foils. Exclusive foils are a strong argument for Evan, a company for which time has not stood still. Because of extensive automation the company is able to efficiently produce high-quality furniture. In short, Evan offers an excellent quality-price ratio for a strong product. Both Evan and Meubar have switched to two pioneering, innovative products. These are panels with a honeycomb structure and laser edges technology. Evan is able to produce honeycomb panels with melamine top up to 10 cm thickness, with a panel weight comparable to a standard 16 mm panel. With the laser technology dirty bonding is no longer a problem. Because of this the furniture’s look equals that of lacquered furniture. The company is the first in the world to offer these technologies. The manufacturer is currently rebuilding. Evan delivers quickly, exclusively and when required in small numbers, which eases the international orientation.

Belgian craftsmanship Each Belgian Bed is made by hand in our own workshops, by master-bed makers who live for their craft. Their experience and passion cannot be equalled by any machine. Are no machines used at all in this process? Of course there are, but never in the sense of ‘automation’ or ‘series production’. The pocket springs made of hardened carbon steel have what is referred to as a shape memory: that means that they always try to return to their resting position. By pre-tensioning them just enough, however, they offer the ideal degree of resistance at even the lightest pressure. To accomplish this, the method of internal tufting is used. This labour-intensive process takes an experienced craftsman up to three hours per mattress.

Gerlin’s metamorphosis
LEONIE
Gerlin has changed its way of modelling. The target group has been redefined and Gerlin now looks to the interiorloving, cosmopolitan 35-year-old. This has far-reaching consequences. The brand’s image has been redefined and is now more high-end and more international. The modelling has become more fashionable. Industrial, Scandinavian and other lifestyle trends are quickly translated into the models. The looks range from tough to basic. Couches are now living sofas; the loose upholstery invites you to take a seat. The fabric and leather collection has been given a boost with more luxury and more kinds of fabric such as velvets, structured linen and vintage leather (looks). Gerlin aims for creative styling and combinations. Customizing is the obvious thing to do. The number of seating and lounge modules has gone up: the minimum is 16 elements per model. In some cases this number goes up to almost 30. Model Ivo is the main example of the metamorphosis. Contrary to the pillows, the plints and the wing arms have been finished with flat piping. The other models also speak for themselves. This is the start of a new style of Gerlin.
PERU
Excellent and affordable design As a family company, upholstery manufacturer Hima is a strong player on the international field. Hima is able to guarantee an excellent quality-price ratio thanks to a full integration of its production process. It means the entire production chain, from reception of the order until the final delivery, is done by Hima’s staff. The possibilities of the Hima collection are almost endless. A wide range of models is practically custom made, in a fixed or corner set, with or without recliner options. All of this can be done in a wide range of fabrics, leather and imitation leather. Even a combination of different covers is possible. Moreover, there is much attention for POS-material and other forms of assistance for the shops.

Neo Cocoon is both designer and manufacturer of design furniture for the living- and dining room. The furniture is made in oak veneer or finished with a mat or glossy lacquer. Neo Cocoon has a wide variety in furniture due to its range of about twenty different programs. Consumers can easily combine pieces from these programs, which means there’s always an answer to personalisation of the interior. This personalisation not only comes from the models, sizes and division of those models but it also comes from the options in colours and finishes. Glass, twelve veneers and nineteen lacquers are part of the standard collection but Neo Cocoon also offers finishes in all possible RAL or NCS colours. And if you want it even more personal: Neo Cocoon provides custom work. With the launch of the CONCEPT TABLE and the modular closet programs ADATTO Neo Cocoon takes it a step further. Tables and closets are finally standard custom-made and can be placed in all rooms of the house, from hallway to kitchen and from living room to office and bedroom.
ADATTO
Life has so much to offer Passe-Partout does not only stand for trendy sofas, beautiful fabrics, various combination and affordable prices. Passe-Partout also means: enjoying yourself, experience, atmosphere, loyalty to stakeholders and most of all gratitude for everything life has to offer. That’s how we work at PassePartout and that’s how we live at Passe-Partout. It is something we all think about but we cast aside because we think we are too busy. Companies or people who cannot work with our philosophy will never work profitably with PassePartout. It is not about ‘what’ we do, it is about ‘why’ we do it. Enjoy life, enjoy your sofa, enjoy Passe-Partout.

Because of the combination of craftsmenship and the customer focus MTE has grown into a trendsetter when it comes to the production of solid oak wood furniture, and that for over 80 years! The wood has undergone a special treatment and has been finished with a brush or scratch technique, which gives it a warm and deep structure. These extra steps in the production proces are combined with contemporary colours. Every collection is very extensive; all the ingredients to make up a complete programme are present. Since 2010 MTE’s products are developed with a PEFC certificate which ensures sustainable forestry.
The sofa beds from Sofa-Bed by Recor Bedding can be fitted with various folding mechanisms. The mattresses are luxurious and the sleeping comfort is superior. Beds are very user friendly because both the seat and back cushions are attached to the mechanism. Cushions do not have to be removed to open the sofa bed. In addition, Sofa Bed offers a wide range of fabrics and foldings mechanisms including optional electrical systems. Some key words for Sofa-Bed: space-saving, smart (intelligent), export-minded, a real bed-experience. The box springs from Recor Bedding can be composed by you by making a selection from a range of headboards, mattresses and decorative legs.
