About interlübke

Lübke GmbH (interlübke) is a furniture company from Rheda-Wiedenbrück in East Westphalia, specialised in designer furniture. Founded in 1937 as a specialist factory for polished bedrooms, the company today develops and manufactures high-quality system furniture for living spaces, including sideboards, cabinets, beds and storage concepts. All furniture is produced exclusively at the Rheda-Wiedenbrück site and is configurable as individual bespoke items – down to millimetre-precise dimension adjustments, special drill holes and cut-outs. A special feature is the lacquered surfaces, which can be produced in any lacquer colour and are certified as non-toxic and saliva-resistant. In addition to lacquer, wood-based materials are used; controlled, certified materials are employed. Distribution channels include specialised retail as well as the company's own showroom at its headquarters. In 2018, the company generated revenue of around €20 million with 155 employees; approximately 20–25% of revenue was generated abroad. In 2026, interlübke became part of the Langhorst Group from Rietberg.
