We are De Eekhoorn. The concept of De Eekhoorn Dutch Furniture is clear and simple: designing tough, contemporary, easy-to-assemble and appealing furniture. With over 200 employees, De Eekhoorn Dutch Furniture and Basiclabel has been a specialist in developing, producing and distributing interior items for hardware stores, department stores, furniture specialty shops and online retailers in Europe for over 40 years. More than 30% of our collection is produced in our own factory in Zwaagdijk-Oost. De Eekhoorn has been actively working on making its production processes and operations more sustainable for many years. We are already taking important steps to reduce our ecological footprint, but and we are determined to take an extra step in the field of CSR.
