Who we are
Welcome to Engrain, a Christchurch-based company dedicated to crafting beautifully designed, functional, and affordable furniture, play equipment and homewares. We believe that quality and creativity shouldn’t come at an exorbitant price; instead, they should be accessible, enhancing everyday spaces with pieces that bring joy, style, and usability.
Engrain began in a humble garage, founded by the parents of two young children who were passionate about creating quality, unique items for their family and friends. What started as a small, personal project has grown into a company dedicated to sustainable craftsmanship and thoughtful design.
Combining premium materials with innovative techniques, Engrain creates products that complement your life—versatile furniture that enhances your home, safe and engaging play equipment that inspires imagination, and unique homewares that add character. Every piece reflects our commitment to quality, aesthetics, and affordability.
Our team at Engrain is driven by values of creativity, integrity, and environmental responsibility. We design and manufacture locally, reducing our carbon footprint and supporting the New Zealand community. We’re excited to share our journey with you as we continue to grow and innovate, making beautiful, functional design accessible to everyone.
