ALKI (stand C42) Alki´s path started in 1981 in a small village in the northern Basque Country, in Itsasu. In a time of economic difficulties a group of five friends founded a small chair factory that we named Alki «which means chair in Basque» with the aim of creating jobs in a weakly industrialized region. The cooperative status was the most suitable to our values which are an essential part of our day-to-day existence Combining ancestral tradition and modern technology, Alki now offers conviviality in a more contemporary style. Workshop Upon opening the workshop doors, your senses are overwhelmed by the smell of wood. The principle raw material, oak, comes from sustainably managed French forest. The drying process is slow and delicate, requiring between four and seven years to attain a material suitable for our purposes.
The manufacturing process involves various trades: carpenters, joiners, builders, finishers and, of course, master upholsterers. This allows precise assembly that precedes sanding, staining and varnishing by hand. Craftsmen’s skills are combined with the latest technology. Using CAD CAM, the designers’ mockups are rendered in three dimensions for each piece to later be precisely machined. The oak is synonymous with nobility, strength and endurance. At ALKI, oak wood is much more than a simple raw material. It symbolizes the company’s firm commitment to an approach of rational and sustained development. Recently, ALKI launched the first bioplastic chair: a biobased and recyclable material, KUSKOA BI designed by Jean Louis Iratzoki.

ALLOT 61 rue vaugirard 75006 Paris Mr Ronan ALLOT Managing Director ronan.allot@ateliers-allot.fr +33 (0)1 45 49 49 61 www.ateliers-allot.fr
The Allot’s story began in 1812 when Jean Allot practised the crafts of tanner and cooper. Across the 8 different generations, the workshop enriched itself by creating, among others, horsedrawn carriages and chairs which were always inspired from the region. Indeed, wood has always been the common theme of the Allot family, each generation passing down the different crafts which show the raw material at his best light. The Allot Workshop also acquired new art crafts such as the marquetry and the lacquer crafts. Allot furniture are listed according to different French historic styles such as the Louis XIV one or the Louis XVI one. French history is therefore reflected in the furniture.
Moreover, the different methods to work the wood have always been the same and consequently remain ancestral. Everything is handmade, in order to respect the materials and keep the authenticity which describes at best the Allot workshop. This tradition and this love of the profession attracted overseas customers (Middle-East, Russia). Since 2014, the company opened a showroom in the heart of Paris in order to meet clients’ expectations. The most sophisticated materials are carefully chosen in order to offer the customer the best quality possible. The furniture are then refined and elegant. Furthermore, History has always been an integral part of the world of cabinetmaking and places itself like the central line of promotion of its brand. The
Allot Workshop, thanks to its strengths, holds the key to success, which rests on a high positioning, a respect of the tradition, a top quality, a made-in-France, a strong history and a meticulous selection of the materials. The Allot workshop is involved to supply 100% made-in-France furniture. All the different materials (marble, bronze, locks) which compose the pieces of furniture come from France. Most of solid wood trunks are carefully prospected and selected in France.

The
comfort by BUROV is incomparable, unforgettable... BUROV brings you into a universe of exceptional comfort, elaborated behind the scenes, first in the minds of our designers and then in the hands of our artisans, who share the same objective: producing the most comfortable sofas and armchairs. The molded foam is one of the key elements of the BUROV comfort. BUROV is one of the very few manufacturers in France and in Europe, to produce itself the foam for its sofas, molded to the measure and shape of its seats. While most of our competitors are buying and cutting industrial foam, BUROV has developed since 1969 the polyurethane cold molded foam patented under the name Confortleltex, acquiring from that day a real comparative advantage. The molded foam is tailor-
made through injection into wooden molds, which are made to the exact measures of the cushion. BUROV was established in 1948, in the heart of the furniture district in Paris. Both a design house and furniture manufacturer, since the early 50’s, BUROV continues to be one of the iconic brands of Parisian design. The brand has always relied on in-house manufacturing and development for all of its products. Today, Burov furniture is manufactured at its factory in Candé, in the Maine-et-Loire (49), located in the West part of France between Nantes and Angers. BUROV is producing chairs, armchairs and high-end sofas, marketed in about fifty specialty stores mostly in France, and also in Belgium, Luxembourg and Switzerland. BUROV is part of the “Groupe BUROV LELEU”, which employs nearly 90 staff. As an affiliate of the Groupe, Burov benefits from the expertise, know-how,
research and development of a French manufacturing company with more than 60 years of experience, which integrates and controls all stages of development of its chairs, armchairs and sofas, including: the design, prototyping, woodworking, framing, assembly, color and lacquering, sewing and upholstery, and even in-house production of molding foam. Fruits of a high quality manufacturing, bringing together industry and craftsmanship, BUROV products meet the highest quality criteria and are recognized as such by industry professionals. In this respect BUROV is present in different industrial sectors, including the yachting and boating industry.
