About KZWO
KZWO GmbH is a manufactory for upholstery, mattresses and textile furnishings based in the Rhön Industrial Park near Fulda. The company develops and manufactures upholstery concepts, beds and sleeping systems, decoration systems as well as visual and sun protection systems for the caravanning, yachting, cruise shipbuilding, commercial interiors and church furnishing sectors. Production combines craftsmanship in sewing with digitalized processes: CAD software, digitalized pattern archives as well as CNC cutters for fabric and foam cutting and a CNC machine for wood cutting in the company's own joinery enable millimeter-precise fit even at high volumes. In addition to production, KZWO handles development including a Colour & Trim Studio with 1:1 models as well as the preparation of test documentation and the acceptance of test samples. Since 2019, the Meditatio brand has been part of the company, producing made-to-measure church upholstery since 1968. Customers include Knaus Tabbert, Carthago, Erwin Hymer Group, Bavaria Yachtbau, Meyer Werft, Lürssen and A-ROSA.
