The global leader in design and innovation, formed from the merger of Herman Miller and Knoll, recently hosted an exclusive event to mark a milestone in its partnership with Pergo.
December 19th, 2024
Pergo is a premier workstyle brand in Thailand and their partnership with MillerKnoll has been celebrated at a special event in Bangkok. The gathering celebrated Pergo’s transition from being a Herman Miller dealer to becoming the sole MillerKnoll dealer in Thailand. Held in Pergo’s newly revamped showroom, the gathering underscored the companies’ shared dedication to design excellence, sustainability and innovation.
The transition represents an important step in MillerKnoll’s ongoing expansion in Southeast Asia, building on the success of other dealer showrooms in the region. By integrating Pergo into the MillerKnoll collective, the partnership aims to offer enhanced access for Thailand’s design community to world-class brands – including Herman Miller, Knoll, Design Within Reach, Muuto, Geiger and Maharam.
The Bangkok event drew more than 200 attendees from the architecture and design sectors, who explored an immersive exhibition highlighting MillerKnoll’s design philosophy, history and commitment to sustainable, people-centered solutions.
Praveen Muppidi, MillerKnoll’s Regional Director for South Asia and Southeast Asia, comments: “For over two decades, CHANINTR has championed the values of Herman Miller, and since 2017, Pergo has carried that legacy forward. We are excited to embark on this new chapter together under the MillerKnoll collective. This partnership continues to elevate design in Thailand, and we look forward to shaping the future together.”
Pergo, founded in 2017 as part of the CHANINTR group, has established itself as a leader in performance-driven and ergonomic design solutions. Its parent company, CHANINTR, is recognized for its commitment to sustainable and innovative luxury furniture. “Design should be beautiful, useful and built to last,” said Chanintr Sirisant, Founder and CEO of Pergo. “This partnership with MillerKnoll reflects our shared commitment to bringing lasting, ergonomic, and eco-friendly design to the region.”
The collaboration promises to provide architects, designers and consumers in Thailand with greater access to iconic designs and innovative solutions for workplaces, homes and hospitality environments. As the only authorised MillerKnoll dealer in Thailand, Pergo’s expanded portfolio aims to redefine how people live, work and play through timeless, sustainable design.
