CLEAF and EGGER establish sales partnership

From February 2020 a selection of #cleaf products will be distributed in six countries together with the #egger Decorative Collection.

Lissone-St. Johann in Tirol, September 23, 2019 – #cleaf and #egger have signed a sales agreement for the distribution of 27 #cleaf products - faced panels, laminates and ABS edges - in six countries: Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Poland, Czech Republic and Slovakia. The “CLEAF presented by EGGER” range will become available for EGGER’s customers in the defined markets together with the launch of the #egger Decorative Collection from February 2020.

The two manufacturers, globally active in the sector of surface materials for furniture and #interiordesign, decided to work together for an ambitious goal: to create a unique and innovative service for architects and interior designers by combining the high aesthetic value of CLEAF’s Made in Italy surfaces and EGGER's high-quality, global product range and distributional strength.

This #partnership demonstrates the common vision and mutual respect of the two family owned companies and is the first step for a broader collaboration, which could also lead to a minority stake of #egger in CLEAF’s capital in the medium term.

“In the past the world of #design has asked us for a more extensive service to meet the increasing demand for interior and furniture individualization. To distribute our innovative surfaces through the #egger network gives us the opportunity to access numerous projects in which we can point out the Made in Italy taste", comments Roberto Caspani, #cleaf Sales and Marketing Director.

Ulrich Bühler, Head of Sales & Marketing #egger Group, adds: "Our distribution partners will benefit from the highest-quality products and trends from #cleaf, combined with the extremely high service level of the #egger Decorative Collection. They can easily stock additional premium products and become central reference points for design-oriented wood-based products in matching decors and materials."

“With our #partnership, customers get the best of two worlds" both comment. #cleaf is a #design expert and premium manufacturer. #egger masters the industrial approach and has broad international market access with a strong sales structure. The two companies have already been working together successfully for a long time. They are united by their focus on top quality, state-of-the-art technology, the most innovative designs and a complete range of matching decor and material combinations.
