Our History

Our History

Experience in Numbers

The Circular Hub is built on decades of experience in the commercial office furniture industry — experience that has shaped how we design, deliver and support workplace environments.

Within that time we have grown exponentially in size and experience, increasing our output, both as a service provider and as a product supplier of revived furniture.

Through the Years:            1896 - 2026

Ahrend's history and wealth of exerience within the furniture industry for over 100 years, not just as a manufacturer, but also as a designer, has helped give us a unique insight into how products can be reused and refurbished.

This experience, coupled with our passion for sustainability, has enabled us to become the pioneers in circular design that we are today.

“We worked with them on a custom line for our co-working spaces. Their design team was responsive, flexible, and deeply knowledgeable about sustainable materials. The end result elevated our interiors while meeting strict environmental standards.” 

Operations Lead, Co-Working Network

“Our company has ambitious ESG targets, and sourcing furniture responsibly is part of that. Their documentation, certifications, and lifecycle assessments made reporting straightforward. They’re not just a vendor — they’re a partner in our sustainability journey.” 

Sustainability Officer, Manufacturing Firm

“We outfitted three office campuses with their desks and seating. Every shipment arrived on time, with impeccable craftsmanship. Their ability to scale production without compromising sustainability standards has made them our go-to supplier.”
