Australian Made

Sulfaro Furniture is unique, it’s handcrafted by gifted artisans and tradesmen and women, completely hand built from the beginning to completion – framing, springs, cushioning and finishing whether leather or fabric. Most of what is currently presented in the marketplace is not. Often it is robotically manufactured using modular components from different manufacturers offshore, and then simply assembled here to take advantage of the claim of ‘Australian made’ – quite simply, it’s not. It has a limited lifetime and in no way compares with Sulfaro quality.

Australia Wide Delivery

Because Sulfaro is genuinely handmade and handcrafted, its creation directed and overseen by Master Craftsman Santo Sulfaro, people from all over Australia are interested in purchasing from Sulfaro.

With stage 3 Coronavirus restrictions being re-imposed as of July 9th 2020 for 6 weeks, it’s really time again to get comfortable at home and sit this one out. These are challenging times and more than ever we need the comforts of home to support us through this next six weeks. The Sulfaro team will continue to manufacture during this new lockdown period and our expansive showrooms shall remain open as well, given strict social distancing and hygiene standards and requirements are enforced and observed. Your safety, security and wellbeing as always is our number one concern.

When you visit our showrooms you can be confident that all furniture and surfaces are hygienically cleaned daily to standards that actually exceed the current Health Department requirements.

We recognise that for all of us, comfort is paramount. It may well be that you have determined the need for a new lounge suite or dining setting to cope with the situation of having the family home 24/7 possibly for the next 6 weeks. It’s certainly a time when our sofas, armchairs, dining settings and accessories get quite the work out!

Yes, that’s right, all Sulfaro furniture is made right here in Melbourne. With high quality materials in storage and in good supply, the Sulfaro team will continue to craft and build furniture of the highest standard – truly ‘Australian made’ – throughout the lockdown period.

Sulfaro is not effected by import embargoes or supply issues from overseas sources. We simply do not require imported materials – our furniture is genuinely 100% Australian made.

We’ve said this before and we will continue to say it. In the following months and years (post Coronavirus), it will become critically important to support local manufacturers to maintain Australian employment and local industry.

At Sulfaro we employ local craftsmen and women; Tradespeople such as frame builders, upholsterers and seamstresses. We engage young people in apprenticeships and work experience programs. With the Australian Dollar very likely to fall further over the coming months, this vision and action will become a valuable asset, ensuring the Australian consumer market has continued access to high quality. locally designed product, particularly with furniture.

Local Manufacturing effectively provides ongoing local employment, fosters genuine local craftsmanship and ultimately reduces Australia’s international carbon footprint. This is truly a sustainable proposition and again we express our gratitude for the ongoing support from all of our customers and clients during these difficult times.

For interstate buyers, please visit our website and browse our fabulous Sulfaro Collection. You can select from a superb range of both traditional classic designs and styles as well as the very best in contemporary, modern styles and designs.

The reality is that our home, its environs, living areas and facilities becomes even more important to our family and our wellbeing in these difficult times. With the imposition of self-isolation and social distancing our home becomes the sanctuary where we seek comfort, security and a sense of protection.

Australian Made – Handcrafted and Hand Built in every detail. It’s from SULFARO. Design, Comfort and Quality – Simply the very best

camelot-fringe-hero.jpg

Now more than ever is the right time to buy ‘Australian Made’. But to be more explicit, now is the time to buy genuine Australian Made products. At Sulfaro our furniture is completely Australian made – right down to the last detail. And the actual quality is in every detail – handcrafted, hand built. Exquisite design, a fabulous finish – truly elegant, comfortable furniture – made to last a lifetime.

It’s fashionable now to claim your furniture is Australian made. But often that’s not the case – it’s merely assembled here. This is very true of several very large National organisations with multiple branches around Australia. The framing, the components such as springs, cushioning and the associated accessories are made offshore. Normally assembled by a third party trader in China, Indonesia, Malaysia or the Philippines, the component parts are now shipped to Australia and assembled. Why? Because the seller can then claim it’s “Australian made” when in fact it most definitely isn’t – it’s merely assembled here.

Contrast this to Sulfaro Furniture. At our Mitcham Studio and Workshop, our team of trained artisans – frame builders, upholsterers, seamstresses and apprentices create your sofa, lounge suite, armchairs and ottomans from the ground up; Using F1 Australian Hardwood, first quality memory foam, stainless steel springs and accessories – all sourced locally supporting many local Australian industries; with all works overseen and supervised by Master Craftsman Santo Sulfaro. Yes that’s correct – right here in Melbourne.

The Sulfaro team use templates and pattern designs created exclusively in our Mitcham Studio. All Sulfaro designs are original and unique. The Sulfaro Collection was actually commenced way back in 1962 – elegant European furniture with a dash of Italian style and panache – real timeless beauty.

For many it’s about enjoying a new lifestyle – Apartment living. Panoramic views, open space, privacy, comfort and security. The Sulfaro Collection offers a superb range of lounge suites, sofas, armchairs and accessories for apartment living. Comfort, luxury and gracious elegant style. Apartment living? – Sulfaro is the right choice
