OUR PRODUCTS
Our collection represents who we are as a company. From design through manufacturing and final delivery to our customers, they symbolize our efforts to bring enduring quality and innovation to life.
By designing products that can be modified to meet our customers’ needs, while at the same time manufacturing them using the most sustainable methods available, our furniture is often handed down from generation to generation, minimizing their carbon footprint. Our working philosophy of quality throughout each stage of the manufacturing process evidences pride of workmanship throughout our organization. Quality is an end result, judged at each step of the production process.
The continual development of new and ground-breaking designs has been a key stronghold for us. The ability of our skilled staff to adapt and modify products both in the design stage and during their actual production, while simultaneously using responsible environmental manufacturing methods, enhances our ability to deliver customized solutions; setting Nienkämper apart from many traditional furniture manufacturers.
Designed to work for all the different ways meetings are taking place—virtually, physically, and formally and informally. It is a product that embraces modern technology but is not dependent of it and the constant changes to it. The product was designed to be ‘technology neutral’ which we believe makes it more versatile and independent. The end-user decides which technology is right for them, letting design once again take the lead.

Vox® Conference tables were introduced in 1997 long before most manufacturers recognized the growing need for accessible, tabletop plug-in points for computers, projectors and other tools for sharing information.

The Vox® Collection is now a family of brands that includes Vox® Conference, Vox® Office, Vox® Learning and Vox® Library. The product line has matured so that pieces from each brand can be combined to create flexible work environments in meeting spaces, learning spaces and private offices.
Nienkämper tables have the flexibility to meet the demands of today’s ever changing technology anywhere in the world.

For over 45 years, and long before it was fashionable to be ‘green’, Nienkämper has quietly practiced sound environmental design and manufacturing processes. At a time when we are continually challenged, both as a company and individuals to be responsible environmental and social stewards, Nienkämper continues to be an industry leader.
Since we first issued our Corporate Environmental Report in 2008, we have continued our journey towards improved sustainability; working jointly with our customers, designers and team members to achieve the highest standards in sustainable manufacturing and design.
