Thonet invented the steam bending process for commercial quality bentwood furniture in the mid 19th century and may very well be the oldest commercial furniture company in the industrialized world.
During the 150 years that have unfolded since, Thonet has established a world-renowned reputation for craftsmanship, functionality, and design flair. Today, Thonet is known around the world for stylish, comfortable, and durable seating for the education, and corporate markets.
