How it all came about

Our Story

Founded in the vibrant city of Cologne, we proudly look back on a history spanning more than 160 years. During this time, metal has become a central element of our work: facades and metal constructions not only form our professional passion, but also significantly shape the architectural contours of our cities. As a medium-sized company, we know that standing still is going backwards. That is why we constantly strive for further development and seek out innovations and megatrends beyond our own horizons. We see ourselves as artists and craftsmen at the same time, whose hearts beat for the design, functionality and sustainability of our products.

Innovation made by urbanshell

Innovative product design

In a fast-moving time where technology, sustainability and aesthetics merge, small details often make the biggest difference. With our pioneering products, we are committed to design that scores points for its attractive appearance, functionality, user-friendliness and a small ecological footprint. With a combination of creative vision, technical expertise and a deep understanding of materials, our talented team goes beyond pure product design: Each product tells its own story - a story of innovation, sustainability and design that enriches the lives of modern people.

Sustainability as a brand promise

Our planet is the basis on which we build our urban future. For this reason, we combine design and durability with responsible action: Made from 100% recyclable aluminum, processed in low-emission manufacturing processes, urbanshell products make a positive contribution to environmental protection and at the same time set new standards in terms of aesthetic sustainability.

Values ​​of urbanshell

Our vision

Our own home is a reflection of our identity, our dreams and visions. Sir Norman Foster already knew: "A well-designed space is a reflection of the society that created it." At urbanshell, we want to live up to this claim every day. Our clear vision: to bring a home, a product and a space to life that meets the needs of the present and is built on a sustainable foundation. A space that offers both comfort and character and radiates passion, innovation and constant progress in every corner. We don't just create products - we create experiences.
