We have been producing metal furniture since 1960
We have been working with metal on the Czech-German border since 1960. At the beginning, we produced electricity meter cabinets, and after 1991 we added metal furniture.
Our production is environmentally friendly and socially responsible, and part of our sustainable philosophy is a ten-year warranty and the availability of spare parts.
In 2018, we opened a new chapter and started producing functional designer furniture in collaboration with leading designers. The very first collection of colorful shelves, chests of drawers and lights, designed by Filip Mirbauer and Michal Strach, was nominated for the best furniture collection at Designblok 2021. The same designers designed a minimalist series of light-colored kitchen furniture a year later.
— Cooperation with Czech and European designers
Fleysen today
Today, Fleysen is a symbol of an honest Czech product that is respectful of the planet. Its exceptional design aims to enliven the places where we spend time, not only with a wide range of colors.
Filip Mirbauer
Filip Mirbauer (*1990) graduated from the Ladislav Sutnar Faculty of Design and Art in Pilsen in 2015, but his name began to be heard in art circles even before he finished his studies. He was nominated for the National Student Design Award in 2012, has two nominations for the Czech Grand Design, is the holder of the Red Dot Award in 2020 and the first ever Designblok Award for Sustainable Design in 2021. He is dedicated to product design, mainly furniture, lighting and home accessories.
Michal Strach
Michal Strach (*1985) graduated from the KOV studio at the Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design in Prague. His work, which includes furniture, toys, jewelry and objects on the edge of design and art, is widely exhibited at design shows in the Czech Republic and abroad. In 2016, he won the Designblok awards, was nominated for the Czech Grand Design award several times and, together with Filip Mirbauer, was nominated for the Designblok and Czech Grand Design awards for the first Fleysen furniture collection.
History of metal furniture production in Plesná
1960
Start of production
The town of Plesná (German: Fleissen) on the Czech-German border has a rich industrial history. Textile production began here before the First Republic, and even Tomáš Baťa himself admired the local factory. In the 1960s, our company began producing switchboards under the name Elroz, which lit up households in most Czech housing estates.
1991
Production of shelves and cabinets
In 1991, production expanded to include metal shelves and subsequently cabinets.
2021
The Fleysen brand was born
In 2021, we started producing Fleysen designer metal furniture in collaboration with leading European designers. The very first collection, designed by Filip Mirbauer and Michal Strach, brought a nomination for the best furniture collection at Designblok 2021.
2024
BIG SEE Product Design Award
Design cabinet #1311 received the prestigious BIG SEE Product Design Award 2024. This recognition is proof of our efforts to combine elegance with functionality in the field of product design.
Responsibility and sustainability
We ensure that our products are recyclable, biodegradable, or made directly from recycled materials.
Our main material is iron, which guarantees that the Fleysen product will not end up in a landfill, but will be recycled.
We use biomass plastics that can be composted. We are intensively reducing the carbon footprint of our plant – since 2018 we have reduced CO2 production by 45% and in the medium term we would like to achieve carbon neutrality.
We support local community, sports and cultural associations.
