Finding good solutions quickly

Lauri Link - Standard AS, Estonia

From furniture ideas
to production

LAURI LINK - PRODUCT DEVELOPER | Standard AS manufactures furniture in three of their own production facilities with modern and environmentally friendly technology and high-quality materials. They take care of everything from the first discussion and planning to production, procurement, renovation, delivery, and completion. The furniture is designed and manufactured according to customers' wishes. When Lauri isn't running in e.g. Lisbon (picture below), he works on developing new furniture.

I work on making project-based furniture. Often the customer wants the furniture quickly, maybe after just four weeks, so I need to find good solutions quickly.

Lauri on plastic materials

Standard AS works quite a bit with environmental responsibility, including making the manufacturing process more environmentally friendly. To achieve this, they have, among other things, implemented several measures to reduce their carbon dioxide emissions. Regarding different plastic materials, Lauri simply says...

If the plastic has the right function and components... why not use it?

Lauri about Ackurat

We at Ackurat regularly visit Standard AS in Tallinn (on Estonia's north coast). Lauri also has a login on Ackurat's website where, in addition to all standard products, he can see the company's prices, Ackurat's stock levels, Standard's own special products, and order history.

I like Ackurat because they have so many products, often in many different dimensions. I benefit greatly from quick product samples and CAD models... and perhaps Ackurat could increase CAD service with support for iMates.
