Looking back on a history that spans more than a century, the family-run Häfele SE & Co KG is steeped in tradition and is driven by over 8,000 employees across subsidiaries in 38 countries. Headquartered in Nagold, a town bordering the Northern Black Forest in Southwestern Germany, the Häfele Group is recognised internationally as a leading expert in hardware and fitting systems, electronic locking systems and lighting solutions.

The Häfele Group is now also regarded as a driving force for the hotel industry and commercial living. It is at the forefront of digitalisation and the development of comprehensive networking solutions, cleverly achieving a symbiosis between furniture and space. This growth has been propelled by Gregor Riekena, Chief Executive Officer since January 2023. Alongside delivering expertly crafted solutions, Häfele has also become a reliable partner for the planning tasks of interior designers and architects. From design to implementation, the company offers products to suit every need, accompanied and complemented by an extensive range of services.

"Maximising the value of space. Together." is the new motto adopted as part of the company's 100th anniversary in 2023, with the aim of working together with partners to create harmonious spatial worlds that make life worth living and where every single detail has been thought through. Häfele believes that the value of a space is not measured in square metres, but in what you do with it – all while balancing the varying needs and expectations of residents, guests and investors. User-friendliness is at the heart of the Häfele product range, which encompasses electronic access control systems, customisable lighting solutions, room partition systems, smart control systems and much more.
