Workhouse organizer

The intelligent Werkhaus construction principle is astonishingly simple and needs no tools for assembly: The robust, shape-retaining HDF (high-density fiberboard) elements consist of panels made from fine wood fiber, glue and water. Precisely cut with CNC machines, the pieces fit together easily. You connect them by inserting a peg notched on both sides of one panel through a slot in a second panel. Then you fasten the peg with a rubber ring. The resulting lightweight units are astonishingly stable – despite relatively thin walls. While highly practical in use, they tolerate dismantling and reassembling at any time.
The reversible connection technology, the choice of materials and the machine manufacturing process allow for the construction of complex, at the same time very inexpensive products predestined for sales displays in stores and trade fairs. Unsurprisingly, this kind of furniture rapidly became the main business of the 1992 founded firm.

Thanks to the precise cutting and the clean machine processing, the affordable furnishings can be constructed from only 3 to 6 mm thin boards. Such furniture would be much more difficult and therefore much more expensive to produce by carpenters. Besides, the visible plug-in connections of peg, wedge and rubber rings create a unique design language, particularly evident in the monochrome versions. Werkhaus develops and manufactures all its products at its headquarters in Lower Saxony. We deliver individual parts; however, we are sure you’ll find the assembling an easy undertaking.

Single as well as combined usable they should be, the desk furniture Werkhaus has developed especially for Manufactum. The result is three black HDF lightweight furniture that can be used according to the needs and space of its user: Two of them - the three-day document storage and drawer box each - can be stacked on top of each other (no matter how around or how many of them). Last but not least, the organizer can be placed on top as a top finish; for vertical sorting of documents and letters as well as horizontal storage of small items.
To keep in mind when planning: If the organizer is placed on top of the drawer box, the top drawer will no longer fit in its intended place due to its design. We therefore recommend using the upper compartment as an open shelf.
