Montis
Montis was established in 1974. Montis designs are not limited by straight lines or angles. Our playful shapes draw their flexibility from our shape-foaming process. Our foam moulding facility is the only one of its kind in the Netherlands. During the production process, a curved steel framework is encased in polyurethane foam. This method minimises residual waste, guarantees comfort and longevity, and offers great creative freedom. At Montis, there isn’t a harsh line in sight – our designs are shapely, industrial and elegant.
