What makes C+P different? What is the secret to our success? How did a company that exists since 1925 become a market leader in steel furnishings? What is the basis for this extraordinary development? What do we do better than others? The answers to these questions can be found in this brochure. You can also learn more from our employees at C+P during a face-to-face discussion. 3
Our mission statement Furniture for People is a promise. People first, products second. We are curious to discover more about people, their goals and wishes, their responsibilities and duties. Our mission is defined by the answers we receive. They are our inspiration for a whole host of new ideas that enable us to help people in their work. 4
Understanding solving This fundamental principle is just as central to our interaction with each other in the workplace. Together, we are successful because we help each other. Together with our partners, we embrace new challenges. 5
Your project is our main concern from the planning phase all the way through to its implementation. You should have the feeling that you ve made exactly the right decision in choosing C+P from the initial contact right until the project is launched. Your project is extremely important to us! We are committed to your cause. We offer you professional planning and implementation as well as creative ideas and suggestions. An interior architect said the following about us: I discussed the design with C+P and by the next meeting they had made it even better than I had expected. This is what we mean. 6

We want to be at the forefront when it comes to innovations and good design. But nobody has managed to do this before? That has never stopped us on the contrary. This is the reason why we were the first company in Europe to have integrated the modules for wireless charging of Smartphones into office furniture or the first to build a climate wall for contract furnishings. We were also the first to combine smart furniture with technology that is just as smart. 8
Developing designing Even the lock of a simple steel cabinet can be improved and be registered for a patent as our Ergo Lock goes to show. We remain inquisitive. After all, there is so much still left to discover. 9

Customizing organizing We mean business when we talk about ergonomics and functionality. What is the point in a method that only works in theory? That s why we have designed tables that actually put ergonomics into practice. As a company of conviction, we work with this furniture ourselves and live by the standing/sitting philosophy in our own offices. It doesn t matter whether we are creating a complete table system or whether we are just designing a table leg or a delicate detail: We create products that have a degree of recognition furniture that you simply love to work with. 11

Informing discussing We want you to get on and work well with one another. Whether it be an informal meeting or a video conference: We are in our element when it comes to providing furniture for conferences and meetings! The principle here is: Use technology simply with the emphasis on the word simple. That s why we combine stylish furniture with smart media technology so that everything is easy to use. Sophisticated furniture motivates people and makes meetings efficient. As technology is changing all the time, we are changing too. After all, as you know: We are extremely inquisitive. 13
We design rooms just for you and have the right acoustic and air-conditioning solution. We offer more than furniture and partitions because a room is so much more than that. Our customers requirements change all the time. That s why we focus on flexibility and a modern material concept. We therefore have an answer to all requirements of transparent modern architecture. But we pick up where others left off: We offer energy-saving cooling with the innovative C+P climate wall or effective acoustic surfaces that we integrate elegantly and almost invisibly into furniture and walls. 14

Changing locking If you want to lock something away, we can do more for you than you think. Our specialty includes lockers and cloakroom solutions. What started out many decades ago with conventional lockers. Those lockers are now meeting the highest standards: Are you looking for elegant glass doors with interior lighting? An integrated drinking fountain in your locker? Media technology in your cabinet? That s no challenge for us. We are the leading company worldwide as far as our cloakroom lockers are concerned: In gyms, company changing rooms, sports facilities, hospitals, everywhere you can think of we offer everything from single lockers to major customized projects. 17
When you find high-tech equipment in a changing room you just know that we re responsible. Our series range by itself is big. But specific requirements are what really spur us on. We built the first locker with a self-ventilation concept and have continued to develop this concept ever since. We have been working with electronic locking systems and door motifs since the last millennium (we were the first on the market to do that by the way). 18
Securing storing There is nothing you can think of that doesn t exist: We supplied the most exclusive lockers in the world to a top American university. Everyone involved was of course delighted with our solution. 19

Researching teaching Experiments are carried out in laboratories. But not at our company. Laboratory and medical facilities actually have more to do with system construction than they do with furniture. We are well versed in both and make effective use of our great expertise. Our industrial, research, pharmaceutical and health customers as well as those from many other sectors really appreciate this: We do not experiment with quality, product functions or design. Our new flexible school laboratories have caused a huge sensation: Is it even possible to reconstruct a class room during a school lesson for an experiment in a blink of an eye? It is with C+P. 21

Producing storing Where wood is chopped, splinters must fall. Wherever sawing, filing, gluing, welding, screwing, clipping, clinching, painting or in a word where production takes place, we are right at home with our tool and equipment cabinets. They store a great deal and ensure both order and security. However, we want to produce something more than just standard in this case too. That s why even the simple tool cabinet comes with the Ergo Lock for which a patent is pending. Our viewing window cabinets are also the perfect aid for optimization concepts such as KAIZEN or KVP. 23
We attach just as much importance to our own logistics as we do to good service. Our fleet of trucks delivers products directly to the required unloading point without transshipment. We therefore need no packaging. Our trained drivers and mechanics know their products and handle them carefully. You can rely on a punctual and smooth delivery and that saves them time, money and a lot of stress. Incidentally, our fleet has grown quite extensively over the last few years. More than 40 tractors and 80 semi-trailers are on the road for you. Other figures relating to C+P can be found on the right-hand side. 24

Protecting taking responsibility We were practicing sustainability before this word was even fashionable. We ve had a passion for steel our green material for many decades. Steel can be melted down and reused without losing its quality. When it comes to steel, the qualities of ecology, stability and design can be combined perfectly. Added to this is our own logistics and the packaging waste avoided as a result thereof. Environmental awareness has traditionally been a fundamental value of our company. This is perhaps also due to the magnificent densely wooded mountain landscapes at our Hessian headquarters and the people who are at one with nature. 27
