Rodam

What Rodam does

Rodam GmbH is a German solid wood furniture manufacturer founded in 1950 and headquartered at Münsterstraße 58 in Schöppingen, Germany. The company operates as a privately held GmbH under CEO Alexander Haas (appointed 2025) and produces handcrafted residential furniture including dining tables, chairs, upholstered seating, shelving systems, and small furniture across four living categories: Essen (dining), Arbeiten (working), Wohnen (living), and Kleinmöbel (small furniture). Its current product portfolio features the Cozy Dining concept with lower seating heights, including the Maru Low Dining armchair, Oks swivel chair, Hana solid walnut dining table, and Arcora Low seating solution.

The company's underlying technology centers on solid wood manufacturing combined with proprietary mechanical engineering for table extension systems. Rodam offers four pull-out architectures (Frontalauszug, Mittelgeteilter Auszug, Slider, and Automatikfunktion) constructed from steel and aluminum with smooth roller or ball guidance, designed to expand tables while protecting delicate flooring. Materials include oak, beech, walnut, and cherry combined with steel, ceramics, glass, fabric, and leather, sourced from German, European, and American forests.

Rodam generates revenue through one-time sales of solid wood furniture via an authorized dealer network (Fachhandel) across Germany and Europe, direct factory sales events at the Schöppingen site, and a newly established US channel through a 518 North showroom partnership in High Point, North Carolina. Custom orders are available on request. The company also invests in trade show presence (Ambiente Frankfurt, Interior Days, Destination Design) and a news/content section on its website to support brand visibility in the premium residential segment.
