TRANSPARENCY 

All faber products are handcrafted in partnership with a cabinet maker in mecklenburg-western pomerania. Our production partner works according to the statutory minimum wages and social security applicable in germany. Local production, the short delivery distance of not more than 150km, the use of non-industrial production methods and environmentally friendly surface treatments result in an excellent environmental balance.

SPECIFICATIONS
