Demolition and new construction of halls 6 and 7

Within a year, Stanzwerk Wetter demolished the old halls 6 and 7 and built a modern, 4,800 square meter hall.

Foundation of Stanzwerk Ineu in Romania

Stanzwerk Ineu was founded on a former military site in western Romania, where several buildings were erected for production. We place great value to the training and further education of skilled workers directly at the company in order to guarantee the highest quality standards. Since its foundation, the site has been continuously expanded and extended. Today, around 90 employees work at the modern production site, making a significant contribution to the success and growth of stawett.

The product portfolio found a new home: 500 square meters of space for a new modern showroom. The production capacities were expanded with a state-of-the-art paint shop.

at the interzum in Cologne for the first time

In the 1960s, Stanzwerk Wetter marked significant developments in its company history. stawett developed its first own folding couch fittings, an important step for the furniture industry, as these could be used accident-free compared to competitor products. Production was expanded to include fittings for wardrobe beds, which further diversified the product range. The company presented itself for the first time at the interzum trade fair in Cologne, a key meeting place for the industry.

Innovations for the furniture industry

stawett has always excelled in innovative solutions for the furniture industry, including adjustable jump up fittings, interior bed sofa fittings and armrest fittings that reflected the spirit of the 1950s and the desire for a comfortable home. The opening of a new production hall was a milestone, with the move symbolically taking place on New Year's Eve as a sign of a new beginning and future growth.

First company car: VW Beetle

In the years of the economic miracle after the Second World War and the associated uncertainties and shortages of raw materials, stawett experienced a boom from the 1950s onwards. The demand for fittings for upholstered beds, folding sofas and other functional pieces of furniture increased enormously. This period also brought traditions such as the annual company outing and special milestones such as the first company car, a VW Beetle, which was used both by the shareholders and for transporting materials.

Foundation

Stanzwerk began in a small workshop with the manufacture and sale of mass-produced items for the iron industry. Despite the challenges of the post-war period and hyperinflation, in which the product portfolio ranged from shovels and curlers to penny heels, Stanzwerk quickly adapted to market equirements. Soon bed and sofa fittings were in demand, which stawett produced in large quantities.
