The process
A good relationship between us and the customer is the most important thing and all our cases are handled with detail and care. We want every customer to feel that they are a part of the Formpress family, which is why we handle all tasks conscientiously and with great attention to detail. You send us your design and our skilful designers assist you through all stages of the creative process. Following approved digital proofing and preparation of a physical sample – which we always recommend – your product is ready for manufacturing.
All our products are handmade, one at a time. Each tray is constructed of multiple layers of fine birch veneer, forced together under high pressure to ensure that the end product becomes as strong and durable as possible. Birch veneer is a natural, eco-friendly material known for its elevated durability and service life. Each tray is then milled to add our signature: the rounded edges that make our trays not only a pleasure to hold, but also much more resilient to knocks and bumps. Rounded edges also allow water to flow off freely, facilitating washing in industrial dishwashers.
Our serving boards and trivets are flat products, built around a core of 6 mm-thick MDF. These products should be cleaned with a moist cloth as it is inadvisable to leave MDF items standing in water.
Following a thorough quality check, the products are packed and readied for shipment to customers all over the world. Every year approximately 1 000 000 products are shipped from our factory on the island of Öland in Sweden.
