Founded in the early 1970s, Sancal has always been clearsighted about its role in the upholstered and auxiliary furniture sector: its overall product concept combines predominantly simple lines, contemporary style and high quality, and recognises that intangible properties are as important a factor as tangible ones. This approach to upholstered furniture has attracted considerable interest from abroad: half of the company's production is currently exported to 29 countries, and the firm has also opened showrooms in Belgium and the Netherlands. Sancal has won several prizes awarded by various organisations.
