Hasenkopf

What Hasenkopf does

Hasenkopf Industrie Manufaktur GmbH is a German industrial manufacturer specializing in custom-fabricated mineralwerkstoff (solid surface) solutions, founded in 1964 by Didymus Hasenkopf in Mehring, Bavaria, and currently led by Managing Directors Holger Klimaschewski and Bernhard Schnaus. The company operates as an official certified processor for DuPont's Corian and LG Hausys's HIMACS materials, with additional work in GetaCore and GifaTec, and employs 180 specialists. Its product portfolio centers on bespoke bathroom fixtures (washbasins, washstands, shower systems, bathtubs), reception counters and desks, façade systems including the Frescata sub-brand, stair claddings, and marine/RV interior components, all manufactured to client specification in a single Mehring facility. Over 300,000 projects have been completed since founding, with landmark references including Elbphilharmonie Hamburg acoustic panels, Deutsche Bahn information counters across 82 railway stations, over 600 m² of Corian at Munich Airport Terminal 2, the Lindt Home of Chocolate museum, CERN's Universe of Particles exhibition, and HanseYachts AG yacht interiors.

The company's underlying technology is the thermoplastic processing of acrylic-bound mineral materials — pore-free, hygienic, and formable into complex geometries — combined with industrial capabilities including 5-axis CNC machining, 3D thermoforming, precision milling, and seamless bonding that produce joint-free surfaces suited to healthcare, hospitality, food-service, and high-traffic public environments. These capabilities were developed over more than 35 years of mineralwerkstoff specialization and enable the production of complex curved and three-dimensional forms that pure custom joiners cannot easily replicate. Notable proprietary differentiators include millimetre-precise 5-axis CNC work, custom 3D thermoforming of Corian and HIMACS, and seamless processing techniques that have been recognized through industry awards (BDIA Yearbook 2012/2013, ZWP Design Prize nomination).

Commercially, Hasenkopf runs a project-based B2B model with no public pricing; revenue is generated through quote-based custom manufacturing contracts, often structured as multi-year supply arrangements for recurring enterprise customers. The go-to-market motion is enterprise field sales directed at Schreiners (joiners/carpenters), architects, planners, and interior designers, with project sourcing heavily dependent on the "Partner des Handwerks" craftsman referral network and direct specification relationships. Customers span six primary verticals — Schreiner/joiners, architects and interior designers, hotels and gastronomy, healthcare and public spaces, mobility and shipbuilding, and arts and culture — with named reference clients including Deutsche Bahn, Munich Airport, HanseYachts AG, MORELO Reisemobile, Sixt, Microsoft Deutschland, Lindt, CERN, and the Elbphilharmonie. Geographic footprint is anchored in Germany with completed international projects in Switzerland, Austria, and Uzbekistan.

Direct peers

• Rosskopf & Partner: Rosskopf & Partner is a German solid surface manufacturer specializing in Corian and HIMACS fabrication for architectural, bathroom, and interior projects. Highly comparable to Hasenkopf in material focus, custom project model, and target customer base of architects and joiners.
• Klöpfer Group: Klöpfer is a Munich-based surface materials specialist distributing and fabricating solid surface, wood, and decorative panels for architects, joiners, and interior outfitters. Overlaps with Hasenkopf on custom surface manufacturing and the same craftsman B2B channel.

Broad incumbents

• DuPont (Corian Design): DuPont is the original manufacturer and brand owner of Corian solid surface material. As Hasenkopf's core material supplier and certification partner, DuPont represents both a critical partner and a broader incumbent in the solid surface ecosystem.
• LG Hausys: LG Hausys manufactures HIMACS, one of the two flagship solid surface brands Hasenkopf is certified to process. As material supplier and global surface incumbent, LG Hausys shares the solid surface category but operates at a vastly larger materials scale.
• Duravit: Duravit is a major German premium bathroom fixtures manufacturer offering washbasins, bathtubs, and shower systems. Comparable to Hasenkopf's bathroom product category (washbasins, bathtubs, showers) but at a much larger scale and through serial production rather than bespoke fabrication.
• Kaldewei: Kaldewei is a German premium bathroom manufacturer specializing in steel enamel bathtubs, shower surfaces, and washbasins. Overlaps with Hasenkopf in the premium German bathroom fixtures segment but competes with different core material (steel enamel vs. mineralwerkstoff).
• Geberit: Geberit is a Swiss sanitary technology leader covering installation systems, bathroom ceramics, and tapware. Comparable to Hasenkopf as a European premium bathroom fixtures supplier, though operating at substantially larger scale and with serial rather than bespoke manufacturing.
• HEWI: HEWI is a German premium manufacturer of sanitary accessories, accessibility solutions, and architectural hardware for healthcare and public buildings. Overlaps with Hasenkopf in serving healthcare and public-space bathroom/washroom projects with premium specification-grade products.

Regional players

• Arpa Industriale: Arpa Industriale is an Italian manufacturer of high-pressure laminates and decorative surfaces for architecture and interior design. Comparable as a European premium surface materials specialist serving architects and interior designers, though focused on HPL rather than solid surface.
• Vola: Vola is a Danish premium manufacturer of taps, fittings, and bathroom accessories specified by architects for high-end residential, hospitality, and commercial projects. Comparable to Hasenkopf in serving architect-driven premium bathroom specification projects across Europe.
