For over 50 years INTERSTUHL has continually strived to increase well-being in the workplace.

From a small village to a successful company operating worldwide, Interstuhl and its subsidiary Bimos stand for quality, design and tailor-made solutions. In short, for perfect seating for modern working environments

There is a name for sitting well: Interstuhl. Located in Messstetten-Tieringen in the region of Swabia in southwestern Germany, this family company has been firmly in the saddle for over half a century. What started as a small village farriery has grown to become a leading European manufacturer of furniture for workplace seating. Interstuhl combines tradition with quality consciousness and innovative strength.

Solutions, living, passion

The firm’s strategy for success rests on two pillars: Interstuhl itself, with its focus on the office environment; and Bimos, which concentrates on industry and labour. The two brands thus have different, clearly defined target groups and fields of activity. Whereas Interstuhl connects locations and activities of all kinds with the right respective seating, Bimos specialises in unique, high-performance furniture solutions for workplace needs ranging from sitting to standing. Interstuhl sees itself as a bridge builder, creating attractive settings with appealing aesthetics for meetings, communication and reception and waiting areas, as well as for single-user and team workstations. Along with optimum seating comfort, the wide-ranging options for personalisation also play a key role. Bimos, on the other hand, conceives of the chair as a link between the human being and factory production: custom-made with professional know-how, coupled with competent consulting.

Mutual appreciation. Joachim and Helmut Link are the strong duo at the head of the family business. They are particularly proud of their competent and committed employees, and their "Made in Germany" products

Human focus

Headed by the duo of Joachim and Helmut Link, the company takes special pride in the craft that goes into its production, as well as in its cooperation with regional firms and in its German-made product that goes out into the world. Over 650 employees, motivated to give their best, produce chairs of the highest quality at the site, drawing on their many years of experience in development and manufacturing. The aim is to create outstanding tools for vitality, activity and communication, right through to regeneration – tools that inspire and support people, enabling them to work with enjoyment.
