Polish textile brand Covereo has experienced an exceptional expansion in 2024, manufacturing 14,000 sofa covers for IKEA furniture—a remarkable 315% rise from the previous year. This growth is primarily attributed to strategic international expansion, particularly into the U.S. and Australian markets, which now contribute 34% of total shipments. At the same time, the company has maintained a strong foothold in Europe, reinforcing its reputation as a trusted provider of high-quality IKEA-compatible sofa covers.
Among its most in-demand products, the Ektorp sofa cover continues to be a best-seller, demonstrating high customer demand for stylish and durable slipcovers. However, Covereo’s product catalog extends far beyond Ektorp, offering custom-fit covers for a variety of IKEA sofa models, catering to customers looking for aesthetic and practical alternatives to standard upholstery.
A Family Tradition of Quality Craftsmanship
Although Covereo itself is a modern and forward-thinking brand, its roots lie in a deep family tradition of sewing and tailoring. The company’s founder comes from a long lineage of textile craftsmanship, with experience passed down from a grandmother who worked in the Polish garment industry as far back as the 1950s. This heritage has helped shape Covereo’s commitment to precision, fabric quality, and long-lasting designs.
By merging decades of craftsmanship with contemporary manufacturing techniques, the company has built a global reputation for producing high-end, custom-made sofa covers tailored to fit IKEA furniture.
Investing in Innovation and Workforce Expansion
To support its increasing demand, Covereo has invested heavily in production improvements. In Q3 of 2024, the company expanded its operations with a state-of-the-art machinery park, designed to improve efficiency, fabric cutting precision, and overall production output. Additionally, to keep pace with growing orders, the company expanded its workforce by 60%, reinforcing both manufacturing and logistics teams.
This development aligns with Covereo’s mission to prioritize sustainability, optimize operations, and implement innovative manufacturing methods. The company’s ability to streamline production while maintaining exceptional quality standards has been key to its ongoing success.
Leading the Market in Europe and Beyond
While Covereo has aggressively expanded into international markets, it remains a major player in the European textile industry. The brand has earned multiple accolades for its contributions to the Polish upholstery and sewing sector, further establishing itself as a reliable provider of premium sofa covers.
Despite its global aspirations, the company continues to uphold Polish craftsmanship and quality assurance. Each cover is produced with careful attention to detail, ensuring a perfect fit and long-lasting durability.
Future Plans and Continued Market Leadership
“At Covereo, we focus on quality and process optimization,” says the company’s leadership team. This dedication to craftsmanship and efficiency has been a driving force behind Covereo’s rapid expansion and growing market share. Unlike mass-market alternatives, Covereo prioritizes durability, design, and custom-fit solutions, making its products a preferred choice among discerning IKEA sofa owners worldwide.
Looking ahead, the company aims to strengthen its international presence while maintaining its leadership in the European market. With a solid infrastructure, skilled workforce, and innovative production approach, Covereo is well-positioned to remain a leading name in premium IKEA sofa covers.
As the demand for high-quality, customized slipcovers continues to grow, Covereo’s dedication to precision, sustainability, and global expansion ensures its place at the forefront of the industry—both in Poland and beyond.
