CEKA is a German manufacturer of office furniture and holistic office furnishing solutions, founded in 1900 by master carpenter Carl-Friedrich Krause under the name C. Krause in Thuringia. The company started as the first wooden products factory of its kind in Germany, focusing on ladders and household equipment. After the First World War, the young company relocated to Hesse. In 1947 a strategic reorientation to office furniture took place. In the late 1970s the range was expanded into a complete office furnishing system, accompanied by a modern production facility. Today CEKA produces exclusively at its Alsfeld (Hesse) site on a production area of over 30,000 m²; over 90% of production-relevant components are sourced within a radius of 270 km. The company looks back on over 120 years of tradition as an office furniture manufacturer. As the first office furniture company in Germany, CEKA received DIN EN ISO 9001 certification for its quality assurance system in 1993. Current certifications: ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 50001; Blue Angel (environmental label); QUALITY OFFICE (quality mark).

Brand philosophy: "furniture for people" — office furniture that creates a sustainable and good working environment. Design philosophy: quality through precise processing of high-quality materials, good design, competent advice and fast, reliable service. Product range: height-adjustable desks (sit-stand solutions), ergonomic office chairs, cabinet systems, drawer pedestals, counters, conference and meeting tables, archiving solutions, holistic office furnishing concepts for office, changing rooms, workshops, warehouses, archives and staff rooms. Sustainability: all products manufactured entirely at the Alsfeld site; materials, components and services are sourced from regional companies wherever possible, including a workshop for people with disabilities. Project SYSYKREIS (publicly funded): systemic circular solutions for the office system. CEKA products meet the high standards of the Blue Angel for environmental, health and functional properties.
