SIKA-DESIGN

A PROUD TRADITION OF CRAFTMANSHIP

The history of our company began in 1942 in Denmark, when Ankjær

Andreasen produced the first batch of handmade baskets, lamps and

accessories made from wicker. With our passion for rattan and great

craftmanship, we manufacture timeless furniture in both our own

designs and in designs by some of the world’s greatest designers and

architects.

We are proud to call us the oldest manufacturer of rattan and wicker

furniture in Scandinavia. With 3

rd

generation Louise Andreasen in

charge, it is our mission to make long lasting furniture both when it

comes to design and durability.

Creating long lasting furniture

We strive to manufacture long lasting furniture, created with the least

possible impact on the environment. This places great demands to the

longevity of our designs, the way we produce, and the materials we use.

Rattan meets these high requirements. The material is solid which makes

rattan furniture very durable and able to be passed down for generations.

Rattan production has a minimal impact on the environment, as the material

is fast growing, harvested and processed by hand, and when steamed

shortly it can also be bend by hand. In the production there is no waste as

all residues are used for the steam ovens.

Social & environmental responsibilities

Taking environmental and social responsibilities are ongoing processes

that we have been working with systematically since 2013. Together with

our sister company, we were the first furniture companies in Denmark

to be certified with an ISO14001:2015 and SA8000 (now replaced by

SMETA by DNV-GL). Through our certifications, we have committed

ourselves to a responsible social - and environmental policy as well as an

ongoing focus on developing and improving these conditions.
