Springs where function meets form
Spring wire is more than a technical component. It is also a material with great aesthetic possibilities. When function and form need to work together, high demands are placed on both precision and a feel for design.
At EWES we have long experience of developing and manufacturing formed wire parts for a range of different applications, from curtain rod finials and armrests to chair legs and lamps. Here it is often the interplay between strength, flexibility and expression that determines the end result.
Looking for a product with strong design?
Many can bend steel wire. Forming spring steel while retaining its function is a more advanced discipline. It is precisely in this meeting between technology and design that new possibilities arise.
We welcome collaborations with designers, universities and companies that want to explore what is possible with spring steel.
Did you know…
… that EWES has manufactured springs for the furniture industry since 1935?
What started with extension springs in military iron beds quickly developed into solutions for upholstered furniture. In the 1950s we helped industrialise the nozag spring, a zigzag-shaped spring that became the standard in sofas and beds.
Today the nozag spring is still manufactured by us, at our subsidiary in Serbia, while we also develop springs for modern applications such as office chairs and height-adjustable desks.
The spring is rarely seen – but without it, neither comfort nor movement works.
