Core competencies of Kny Design

KNY DESIGN, a family-owned business established in 1956 in Ramingdorf, Lower Austria, is much more than a reliable business partner. KNY DESIGN, with about 50 highly qualified and skilled employees, is a source of inspiration, provider of ideas and problem solver in the field of glass design and metal engineering, in particular decorative lighting.

Our core competencies are the planning and implementation of customized products that are not only functionally designed and individually manufactured to suit different cultures, but also emanate poetry, touch the heart and include a new dimension.

"Innovation through tradition" is the fundamental philosophy of KNY DESIGN. Harald Kny, managing director and third-generation family owner, attaches great importance to manufacturing all products in the company's production facilities in Austria. The main focus is on excellent quality, achieved through a combination of traditional craftsmanship and state-of-the-art production technology.

KNY DESIGN accompanies your project from the creation of the initial concept to the satisfactory implementation, using sustainable production technologies. Harald Kny not only wants to create sustainable products, but also produce them in a sustainable way. By cooperating with KNY DESIGN you can profit from decades of experience and from innovations, which are the result of intensive research and development efforts of KNY DESIGN.
