We are one of the most dynamically developing furniture groups in the world. In 25 years, we have become the 3rd biggest chair and office furniture manufacturer in Europe. Here we show you the most important landmarks in our colourful history.

Adam Krzanowski goes to the United States. Jerzy Krzanowski opens his first company in Poland.

A gap year, travel to the United States and a job unloading trucks at a chair manufacturing company. Sounds like a story of a typical student going to work abroad. During this trip, the future President of Nowy Styl Group starts to work at a chair manufacturer – the company Whyte. It is there where he gets promoted and gains professional knowledge. At the same time, Jerzy opens his restaurant in Krosno and learns how to run his own enterprise. The Krzanowski brothers start to think about establishing their own business.

The Krzanowski brothers establish a chair manufacturing company. The first chair branded “Nowy Styl” is made in Krosno.

Henry Stern, owner of the company Whyte, provides support to the start-up entrepreneurs. He inspires the Krzanowski brothers to open their own furniture factory and help them build business relationships with suppliers. Nowy Styl officially makes it onto the map of Polish enterprises. The first chairs are made. We hire 7 employees and produce 3 chair models.

We spread our wings. Nowy Styl at Krosno airport.

Our portfolio consists of 7 chair models, and our company employs 100 employees. It is time to move. We choose the shop floor at Krosno airport. The area covering over 2,000 m² seems to be large enough to serve the company for many years to come.

We exhibit at the biggest furniture fair in Germany.

The Orgatec fair is one of the most prestigious furniture fairs. Companies from several office space sectors in the market present their solutions in Cologne. We present our product offer there for the first time in 1996. Since that time we have always been present at the Orgatec fair, which is held regularly, every two years.

Baltic Wood enters the market.

Baltic Wood starts a new chapter in our company’s history. We complement our current offer with floors made of almost 30 types of wood. The Baltic Wood company offers 400 products made of European, American and exotic timber, including over 100 oak floors. They attract clients with their unique colours and bring to mind places in remote parts of the world.

We accompany sports fans when they experience amazing moments at football stadiums all over the world.

Stadium seats have been part of our product offer since 1997. With the passing of time, they are becoming more and more popular. In 2006 Nowy Styl Group’s management board makes a brave decision – from now on, stadium seats will be sold under the Forum Seating brand. During the 2010 World Championships in South Africa, football fans sit on Polish chairs at the Green Point and Mbombela stadiums. Two years later, we equip all Polish stadiums with our seats for the 2012 World Championships in football.

The BN Office Solution brand comes into being.

For us, chairs are not enough. We decide to develop our product offer and create a new brand in our portfolio. We complement our offer with prestigious office furniture systems designed for office interiors all over the world. Today, the BN Office Solution brand cooperates with world-famous designers.

We implement a functional management model.

In order to manage Nowy Styl Group's subsidiaries in Poland and abroad effectively, and to prepare for further dynamic development, the company undergoes some organisational changes. A 5-person management board becomes head of the Group. Its members have different responsibilities based on their qualifications.

We celebrate our 20th anniversary. In two decades, Nowy Styl Group has evolved from a small family-owned company into a global market player.

We have a global reach and departments in more than a dozen locations worldwide, e.g. in the UK, France, Germany, the United Arab Emirates and the USA. Thanks to our extended distribution network, we are able to supply our products to over 100 countries. Every day hundreds of thousands of people sit on our chairs. Our furniture can be found in offices, cinemas and stadiums around the world. In summer 2012, during the football European Championships, we proudly support teams playing their matches at four Polish stadiums equipped with our seats.

Adam Krzanowski wins the Polish edition of the prestigious "EY Entrepreneur of the Year 2014" competition.

Our courageous expansion in Europe is noticed by the experts at EY. Adam Krzanowski wins the Polish edition of the prestigious "EY Entrepreneur of the Year 2014" competition. He represents Poland in the international final of the competition in Monte Carlo, where he competes with managers of the fastest developing enterprises from all continents.

We finish the process of building one of the biggest and most innovative furniture factories in Europe!

The investment we started in 2012 is finished. The new Nowy Styl Group's Furniture Factory, which was co-financed by the European Union, confirms our company's development potential. The use of state-of-the-art technologies allows us to shorten order completion time, customise our production and increase the quality of our products. We hold the official opening of our factory in September 2014.

We have 29 showrooms located in the biggest European cities, e.g. in Warsaw, London, Paris, Berlin and Moscow. However, the limited space does not allow us to present the full scale of our possibilities. So we create a unique #OfficeVR tool that we use to show our product and arrangement solutions within an unlimited space. Our clients can see with their own eyes the new office arrangement project before it is implemented. With a single click, they can change a furniture system, walk around a huge office space, sit comfortably in a managerial office or check the functionality of a conference room. The #OfficeVR application was shown for the first time during the Orgatec fair in Cologne. It echoed widely throughout the furniture industry and led to our company's success at the fair.

Experts at the World Championships!

Thanks to our unique know-how, we have become experienced experts in arranging office and auditorium spaces for our clients. We have created modern, multi-disciplinary teams of experts, with whom we have surveyed thousands of employees and responded to their various needs.

Our know-how has allowed us to reach the championship level: chairs made by our Forum Seating brand will be installed at the three stadiums being built for the 2022 Qatar World Championships in football.
