how mybettershelf furniture is made
Handcrafted to last
See how we make our furniture, how we care about the details and how we (and you) act for sustainability.
each piece is made by hand
Our workshop is not a place for conveyor belts and automated assembly - a mybettershelf product is handmade and will always be. Each piece gets the same care and attention.
precious finish
It does not just look good - you'll be glad to touch it every day, as it is sanded and finished smooth, for beauty and protection.
real solid wood
We always use the best available wood material: oak, walnut, maple, cherry just to mention the most popular species. Even exotic wood types are possible if you wish something unique.
professional painting
Painted in a specialized painter workshop, the furniture gets the selected color and finish: matte, semi-gloss or lacquered (high-gloss).
Designed with nature in mind
We always go the extra mile to design the making process in a sustainabile way and we refill nature to compensate for the resources we have used up of.
natural finish
We use a 100% natural-based finish made by the Austrian Natural Naturfarben brand, containing no hazardous materials either for people or nature.
tree refill program
After each order that contains solid wood, we plant a tree via the local MyForest Community Forests organization - this way refilling the material to the nature.
recycled materials
All of our standard orders are shipped in cartoon boxes made of 100% recycled paper material. We recommend keeping the boxes to use them for future storage.
