Design to love. Prices to like
In 2012, Sofacompany set out to challenge the furniture industry by making high-quality Danish design available to all. We set up a new business model, carefully handling all steps of the process making us able to deliver our products directly from our own factory. A unique concept that removes all non-value-adding links from the supply chain – and renders what we like to coin “fair prices”.
Our strategy furthermore enables us to offer customisation for all consumers – and full-on tailormade solutions for professionals in collaboration with our talented in-house design team.
Online might be our thing but seeing is believing, which is why we have beautifully designed showrooms in 22 cities around the world for you to visit. In our opinion that’s the best way to not only display our hand-crafted designs but meet the customers face-to-face.

Serving customers in over 50 countries with 10 subsidiaries across 3 continents and a workforce in excess of 5,000 people, ScanCom manufactures outstanding products that combine international design expertise with state-of-the-art production techniques and a proven commitment to CSR. Each piece is produced in-house or by strategic partners under ScanCom’s strict supervision and is rigorously tested to relevant global standards for quality, durability and functionality.
ScanCom’s products are made from premium-quality materials: hardwood, teak, painted hardwood, powder-coated aluminium, steel and wrought iron, plastic and Petan®, our synthetic wicker fibre.

In the words of ScanCom’s founder, Boje Bendtzen:
“In a world of mass production, quality and delicate design are becoming increasingly important. ScanCom creates products that generate a positive feeling through intensive and vigorous development in the areas of both quality and genuine design content. Customer satisfaction is our ultimate goal and the guiding principle in everything we do.”
