Nolte’s remarkable journey has seen many milestones and today, its luxury kitchens are found all over the world.
It all starts with having the right infrastructure
Nolte kitchens are produced on a massive site measuring around 100,000 m2 in Lohne and Melle. This is where Nolte’s quality promise of ‘Made in Germany’ originates. They soon purchased grounds in Melle in 1974 and constructed their 2nd production site in 1981.
Just a year later, they started the production of worktops at the factory in Melle. In 2017, they built a warehouse for door fronts and consignments. With a solid and extensive infrastructure such as this, it’s no surprise that Nolte delivers products that are one-of-a-kind.
