Interior fit-out and furniture manufacturing from a single source
LOTTER-OBJEKT Möbelwerkstätten GmbH is a family business in Kelheim, now run by the fifth generation since 1898, offering custom interior fit-out and high-quality furniture manufacturing. The company acts as general contractor for complete interior fit-out and manufactures furniture and furnishings from one-off pieces to large-scale series in its own workshops. Production includes a joinery with CAD/CAM-controlled machinery (5-axis CNC, automated panel storage, zero-joint edge banding machine), an integrated metalworking shop for steel, stainless steel and aluminium constructions, and an in-house paint shop with powder coating. Materials processed include solid woods such as oak, walnut, cherry and beech, laminates, glass, Corian and metals. The focus is on custom bank fit-out for nearly all major European banks, from prototype construction to executive areas and branch fit-out; other industries include offices, medical practices, hotels, car dealerships and airport lounges. Seven in-house assembly teams operate throughout Europe, supported by an own logistics centre for packaging, order picking and shipping.
