The very best software solutions

In order to create the finest bespoke furniture products, you need the best equipment.

Our highly developed systems allow us to produce exceptional quality furniture.

The latest CNC machinery

We use HOMAG machinery, the world’s leading provider of integrated production solutions for the furniture and woodworking industry. This allows us to precisely and consistently cut and finish panels and shapes to achieve accurately fitted furniture.

Innovative components and fixings

All our components and fixings are sourced from high quality European suppliers such as BLUM, Hafele, GTV and Titus. Each fixing and component is extensively researched and tested.

High quality and
unique furniture decors

Our board partners include Egger, Kronospan, Saviola, Unilin, Senoplast, Serica, and the new supermatt from Alfatherm. We colour match ABS edging tapes from Rehau and Hranipex amongst others.

A team with a wealth of knowledge, expertise and skills

At Intrinsic Works, it’s also about the people. We pride ourselves on the strong relationships with both clients and colleagues alike. Our knowledgeable and skilled team has many years of industry experience to draw from and can offer advice on our products and the best solution to your fitted furniture needs.

We’ve been working with Intrinsic Works for around 12 months now. We’ve been so impressed with the quality of the products and the attention to detail. Every care is taken to ensure accuracy in the planning and production which always leads to a smooth installation and minimal waste.

We’re looking forward to building on our already great relationship this coming year.

West Yorkshire retailer

We partnered with Intrinsic Works a good few months ago now. Compared to the large company that we used to use, what a world of difference! Our Fitters and customers love the product and service.

From a designer’s point of view, the choice of materials is fantastic even mind-blowing, and the freedom to design without restrictions opens up loads of possibilities, now we can fulfil our discerning customers’ requirements and so much more!

Pete,

South Yorkshire retailer

We have always received great feedback from our fitters on how easy it is to install these products. We have just finished the installation of a bedroom, thanks to the creative design and the synergy between the door widths and the height, the room looks fantastic. Well done! The door finish you chose helped us secure this commission, and we are delighted with the result. It will be a pleasure to work with you when we plan our displays.

Steve,
