Inspired by the sun – sol. Inspired by design – puri.
solpuri combines the vital energy of the sun with the clarity of excellent design. For solpuri, spending time outside in the here and now, outside of all four walls, means transcending the usual standards and creating a better quality of life with our unique designs.
A leisurely breakfast, lazily sunbathing in the afternoon or a balmy summer evening with friends
solpuri creates favourite places under the open sky.
The balcony, the terrace or garden have more than ever become important places for shared moments or short everyday timeouts. Everyone is looking for a favourite place – in the shade or in the sun – to enjoy the precious time outside.
“Joy of design is joy of living.
This design premise uniquely
characterises all of our designs.”

High responsibility for the environment
When designing and developing our furniture, we consider the careful treatment of our resources. All our materials are low-pollutant and recyclable. All our wooden components are fairly traded, and our suppliers are certified by the German TÜV. The timber is grown naturally and processed without chemicals.
Uncompromisingly high-quality metalwork
For our stainless steel and aluminium collections, we only use the highest quality alloys which guarantee high stability and a long life. Through the use of complex castings and thick-walled construction elements, precisely processed frame constructions are created using state-of-the-art production technologies. A final finish by hand gives every piece of furniture the finishing touch.
“solpuri stands for extremely
high-quality materials,
the sustainable use of resources
of unique processing.”
