Poltrona Frau has also been involved in non-residential projects since the 1930s, continuing to earn growing recognition in a complex and constantly evolving sector thanks to the projects developed by the Group's business units.
The Custom Interiors business unit works alongside the best international architects to create interior furnishings in public spaces. Museums, theatres, auditoriums, cinemas, airports, showrooms, hotels, offices, restaurants… unique environments that require products with specific characteristics to meet acoustic, visibility and durability requirements.
The Interiors in Motion business unit, born in the mid-1980s, goes beyond the confines of residential living, specializing in the creation, manufacture and supply of distinctive leather interiors in the premium automotive, air, rail transport and marine sectors.
It is an ambitious challenge that is renewed with each project: in an increasingly fluid and dynamic world, where the boundary between indoors and outdoors, home and travel becomes increasingly blurred, the need for comfort and elegance grows even in spaces outside the home.
Poltrona Frau is able to respond with creativity and experience to the various needs of the most demanding designers and customers, interpreting their thoughts with respect and fidelity and following the work in all its phases, from the initial study to the realization and implementation. The great tradition of craftsmanship and the attention to detail typical of Poltrona Frau combine with the most advanced and innovative trends in the sector, allowing us to create partnerships of excellence around the world, distinguished by the Italian taste and elegance that have made the Poltrona Frau brand famous.

POLTRONA FRAU STORY
OVER A CENTURY OF POLTRONA FRAU
Story of an Italian brand that has grown all over the world.
WE HAVE A GREAT FUTURE BEHIND US.
Renzo Frau founded Poltrona Frau in Turin in 1912. In the 30’s it was already a status symbol. From 1926 it was appointed supplier of the Italian Royal Family, the Savoia dynasty. From then on, it will furnish all the most important houses, grand hotels, the interiors for Expo Turin 1928, and the lavish transatlantic Rex, pride of the Italian Navy.
MANY HAVE WRITTEN OUR STORY, THIS IS WHAT MAKES IT SO UNIQUE.
The more you “live” a story, the more interesting it becomes. This is true for the leather of our sofas as for our company’s history, so full of personal experiences, encounters, professional skills and inspiring visions, which have made it a “unicum”. A story that completes itself and stands out in the multi-coloured Italian manufacturing and creative world.
FOR US, QUALITY IS ALWAYS AT THE FIRST PLACE.
Quality, quality, quality. We are really boring! After all, this is the only way you can conquest and defend Leathership®. A neologism, created by Poltrona Frau to define its expertise and culture of the world of leather, which has become a registered trademark.
WE USE THE MOST ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY OF THE WORLD OUR HANDS.
There is something that no automatic sewing machine, no computer, no precision laser can ever perform: the intelligence of our hands. That special combination of experience and sensibility that allows you to feel if a padding is well distributed, or if the pleats have the right thickness.
WE TRY TO IMPROVE ANY ENVIRONMENT EVEN THE ONE WE LIVE IN.
Beautiful and responsible: the quality of our products is not pursued at any cost. We always like to keep in mind our workers’ health and the impact our products might have on the environment. Poltrona Frau is strongly committed to pursuing a strict ethical code.
