Furniture manufactured in Sweden

Strömgatan 2, Malmö

Everything happens under one roof

Every piece from by Crea is made in our own factory in Malmö. Steel is shaped, wood is prepared and fabrics are stitched in the same space, so we can follow each detail from the first sketch to the final touch.

Producing everything ourselves lets us adjust, improve and refine every day, and it is why we stand behind every piece with a 10-year warranty.

No assembly lines

Our craftsmen and craftswomen work in small, specialised teams: welders, upholsterers, powder-coaters and assemblers, each responsible for their part of the process.

Every product passes through multiple hands and quality checks before it leaves the factory. A slower way to work, which is exactly why it lasts longer. We know who made what, and every piece has a person who stands by it.

Each frame begins as raw steel

It is cut, welded and sanded until it meets our tolerances, then moves to powder coating, where durable finishes are applied in carefully developed hues: matte black, warm beige, crisp white and more.

Our upholstery team sews every seat and backrest by hand, checking alignment, tension and comfort before final assembly.

Why we keep production local

Local production is not a slogan, it is our foundation. It means short transport distances, real accountability and a direct line between design, manufacturing and the customer.

If something can be improved, it happens immediately, in the same building. It is the only way we know to keep true quality and transparency.

The heart of by Crea

Our factory is more than a place of work. It is where design meets dedication, and where we prove that craftsmanship still has a place in modern production.

Every product we send out carries that belief. From Malmö, with purpose.

Materials tell stories

FAQ

Where is by Crea® furniture produced?

All by Crea® furniture is produced in the company’s own factory in Malmö, Sweden.

Design, metal fabrication, woodworking, upholstery, and final assembly are handled internally. Production is not outsourced to third-party manufacturers.

The production location is fixed. It does not vary by product or market.

Does by Crea® manufacture everything in-house?

Yes. by Crea® controls the full production process in-house.

This includes:

  • frame construction
  • surface finishing
  • upholstery work
  • final quality control

External suppliers provide raw materials only. Manufacturing, assembly, and finishing remain internal.

Is by Crea® furniture made to order or produced in advance?

Both production methods are used.

Bestseller models are often produced in advance. These follow fixed specifications and shorter delivery times.

Made-to-order products are produced after purchase. These allow defined customization within strict production constraints.

The production method is determined by the product configuration.

How does by Crea® ensure consistent quality across production runs?

Quality control is integrated into each production stage.

Frames, finishes, and upholstery are checked before assembly. Final inspection is completed before packaging.

Because production is handled in one location:

  • materials behave consistently
  • construction tolerances remain stable
  • design specifications do not drift over time

This reduces variation between batches.

How does production affect durability and product lifespan?

Production methods are chosen to support long-term use.

Steel and solid wood structures are prioritized. Joinery, welding, and fastening methods are selected for stability under daily load.

Some models are designed with replaceable components. This allows maintenance without replacing the entire product.

Durability is addressed during production, not added afterward.
