What Nowy Styl does

Nowy Styl is a privately held Polish manufacturer of office and public-space furniture, founded in 1992 and headquartered in Krosno, Poland. The company self-describes as the European leader among manufacturers of comprehensive furniture solutions for offices and public spaces, with products supplied to more than 70 countries. Its portfolio spans seven product categories — chairs, soft seating, desks and workstations, tables, storage furniture, acoustic pods and solutions, and beam seating — supported by differentiated ergonomic technology including the patented X-MOVE backrest mechanism and Duo-Back backrest technology (which the company claims reduces spine pressure to 50%). It also operates a dedicated acoustic engineering platform, Sileo Levels, with frequency-specific Treble, Middle, and Bass panels.

The company's revenue model is B2B enterprise hardware sales, conducted through direct field sales, physical showrooms, an architect/designer partner channel, and an online product configurator that enables specification and quote-based transactions. It serves corporate offices, healthcare facilities, hospitality venues, and educational institutions, with named enterprise customers including LPP, Samsung SDI, JT International, Arup, 4F, Grembox, Clésence, and INTER-BUD Group (Fabryczna FLEX co-working). The company holds the EcoVadis Platinum Medal for four consecutive years — the only company in its industry to do so — and has earned a Triple Red Dot Award 2026 and a German Design Awards 2025 Gold for the Brainy product.

Nowy Styl operates through wholly-owned regional subsidiaries in France (Nowy Styl France S.A.S.), the UK (Nowy Styl UK Limited), Germany (Nowy Styl GmbH, Nowy Styl Deutschland GmbH), Hungary (Nowy Styl Hungary Zrt.), and retains the acquired Kusch+Co GmbH as a premium furniture sub-brand. The firm employs 501–1,000 people, is organized as a Polish sp. z o.o., and shows no disclosed external private equity or venture capital ownership. Geographic expansion continues into Central Europe (Hungary), with stated market presence including the USA and Korea.
