Kiela: Dutch Craftsmanship and Thoughtful Design – Available at Just Add People
When you’re furnishing or upgrading your salon, you’re making one of the most important investments in your business. It’s not just about furniture or equipment; it’s about creating the framework for every experience you and your clients will have, every single day. At Just Add People, we’re proud to introduce Kiela – one of Europe’s most highly regarded salon furniture manufacturers. Kiela brings together a tradition of craftsmanship, groundbreaking innovation, and a genuine understanding of the everyday needs of hairdressers – something only a handful of brands truly master. But what is it that makes Kiela the right choice for salons that want more than just to fill a space with furniture?
A Unique Approach to Production
Since 1938, Kiela has been synonymous with uncompromising quality. Unlike many other manufacturers who rely on mass production, Kiela insists on keeping every step of the process under one roof. Every single piece – from barber chairs and massage units to accessories – is crafted in the company’s own workshop in Driebruggen, the Netherlands. Here, specialists in metalwork, woodwork, and upholstery work side by side. This concentrated expertise ensures that every Kiela product is a fusion of aesthetics, comfort, and durability.
This approach means that, as a salon owner, you get furniture where attention to detail and pride in craftsmanship is evident in everything – from stitching and materials to function and finish. These are not pieces designed to be replaced every two or three years. On the contrary, they’re true investments – built to last both in style and performance. This philosophy is perfectly aligned with salons that respect good design and want to create an environment that truly stands apart from the standard.
Sustainability and Responsibility
In an industry where sustainability is often reduced to buzzwords or symbolic gestures, Kiela takes a more fundamental approach. All production is done exclusively in the Netherlands, giving them full control over both working conditions and material sourcing. This ensures everything meets European standards for both quality and the environment. Kiela’s production is planned to minimize waste, reuse materials wherever possible, and keep the carbon footprint as low as possible – including by limiting unnecessary transport.
This responsible way of doing business means you can choose your salon interior with a clear conscience. Your furniture is not only the result of refined design and luxury, but also of care for both people and planet. It’s no coincidence that some of Europe’s most forward-thinking salons choose Kiela.
Designed for Modern Hairdressers and Clients
Every detail in a Kiela product is thoroughly considered, making life easier for hairdressers while also enhancing the client experience. Nothing is left to chance – from cushioned seats that stay comfortable even during long treatments, to ergonomic solutions that help prevent work injuries and promote a healthy work environment. One of Kiela’s trademarks is the way design and function merge seamlessly. You don’t just get a beautiful styling chair or washing unit, but a piece of equipment engineered for the fast-paced salon. Everything from moving parts to easy cleaning and the option for individual customization is built in. That means whether you run a classic hair salon, a modern barbershop, or an exclusive spa environment, you can create exactly the mood and look you want – without compromising on functionality.
A Lasting Investment
Many salons are tempted to opt for cheaper furniture, but this often proves to be a false economy. Cheap fixtures wear out quickly, break, and end up costing more in replacements and repairs than any savings made up front. With Kiela, you’re investing in furniture built to endure. This shows not only in its durability, but in a timeless design that won’t go out of style after a single season.
Kiela offers up to a five-year warranty on the construction of their furniture, demonstrating true confidence in their products. But in reality, these pieces often last much longer, precisely because they’re built for daily use, year after year. When you choose Kiela, you’re investing in peace of mind, security, and an experience that your team and your clients will appreciate long after the furniture is installed.
Tailored Solutions Without Compromise
With Kiela, the promise of customisation isn’t an empty one. Instead of standard solutions, you can choose materials, colours, upholstery, and details so your furniture matches your concept and your salon perfectly. This gives you the opportunity to express your unique style – whether you dream of an industrial, raw look, a classic and timeless atmosphere, or something entirely your own. This flexibility makes Kiela the ideal choice for those who want to signal quality and individuality – and for anyone who understands how much the physical space matters to both job satisfaction and customer happiness.
