About Tuschen Küchen
Hans-Gerd Tuschen Küchen- und Holzwerk GmbH & Co. KG was founded in 1962 as a mosaic parquet factory in Essentho and today manufactures individual fitted kitchens, made-to-measure furniture, room doors and solid wood furniture such as tables, benches and stools at its Warburg-Scherfede site. In its own joinery workshop, kitchen furniture is manufactured to the millimetre according to customer dimensions; CNC technology has been in use since 1982, currently a CNC system acquired in 2002 for manufacturing individual kitchens. Materials processed include solid wood (oak, wild oak, walnut, larch, spruce, pine, beech), veneer, MDF and chipboard, as well as worktops made of natural stone, granite, ceramic, stainless steel, glass and quartz stone. Production includes sawmill cutting, planing, CNC milling, edge gluing and painting with its own painting system and dryer.
