TRIBOO and Yizumi Sign a Partnership Agreement to Launch Large-Scale 3D Furniture Production at Formnext in Germany

On November 19, 2025, Marc van der Heijden, founder and CEO of TRIBOO, together with Nicolai Lammert, Managing Director of Yizumi, signed a partnership agreement that will enable professional, efficient, and large-scale 3D furniture production—using waste from recycled plastics and natural fibers—in the Netherlands and beyond.

As Yizumi’s agent in Europe, TRIBOO will begin offering large-scale 3D-printing robot systems to the furniture manufacturing market. The initial focus will be on the Netherlands and Belgium. The latest, state-of-the-art, easy-to-use, and most affordable system on the market will soon be on display at the Circular Office Experience Center in Zevenhuizen, where production will also begin.

The partnership also includes the continued development and expansion of TRIBOO’s NeverEnding Furniture brand. More and more digital furniture designs will become available on this platform, which can be printed on demand using standardized Yizumi machines, logistics, and recycled materials. Anyone can make their designs available through the platform, and anyone can become a manufacturer of their own furniture. TRIBOO will facilitate this, thereby helping to democratize the furniture industry worldwide. This will give everyone equal opportunities for success in the furniture industry.  

In addition, the existing network—and any future networks to be built—will be used more efficiently. TRIBOO founder Marc van der Heijden’s dream of shipping furniture around the world in a millisecond without using trucks, boats, or trains can thus begin to take shape. No transit times, no shipping costs, and no CO2 emissions! This will revolutionize global furniture production and logistics. It’s already possible to have NeverEnding Furniture printed in multiple countries around the world.

Through this collaboration, both organizations aim to pave the way for a European industrial production network of 3D printers that will transform waste on a large scale into eye-catching designer furniture. The raw materials used will be reused time and time again to print new pieces of furniture. With lower CO2 emissions, less material, and less waste. Together, we’re turning “fast furniture” into “NeverEnding Furniture.”

About TRIBOO

TRIBOO BV was founded in 2016 by Marc van der Heijden and is based in Zevenhuizen. Through revolutionary innovations and groundbreaking techniques, the company transforms “worthless” waste streams—made up of plastics and natural fibers—into “valuable” circular office furnishings. TRIBOO is making an impact by radically transforming the furniture industry and making it more sustainable. It does this through its own brands: NeverEnding Furniture, #greengridz, and EverUse. In 2020, it was recognized through its nomination for the “Oscar” of entrepreneurial awards—the King Willem I Plaque—as one of the 12 most sustainable companies in the Netherlands. The European Commission also named TRIBOO a “Rising Star” at the European Business Awards for the Environment in the products and services category. A company to watch, standing out for its bold leadership toward a sustainable economic recovery for Europe—well aligned with the priorities of the European Green Deal.  

TRIBOO brings the circular economy and a waste-free society to life in a striking way for everyone through interior design that uses fewer materials, emits less CO2, and generates less waste. And you’ll never stop talking about the circular furniture made from old refrigerators, soap bottles, plastic bottles, CDs, your old paperwork, hemp, and many more raw materials that we throw away every day.
