Frequently asked questions.

What is good design?
Superficially, it’s good form with harmonious proportions and a fascinating radiance. But on closer inspection, a look behind the scenes reveals the quality of the materials used and the craftsmanship. For upholstered furniture, both of these need to be exceptional, and that requires one thing above all else: experience. For the past 50 years, we’ve continued to develop our products at the ROLF BENZ company. Until we achieve perfection, which is only possible when planning, development and production all occur under the same roof. We can thus coordinate market requirements quickly and directly on the basis of construction and manufacturing experience. This is an absolute must for functionally advanced, comfortable seating furniture that you’ll be able to enjoy for long to come. All that is embodied by the short formula, ‘Made in Germany’.

What does the Blue Angel ecolabel represent?
All the upholstered furniture* of the ROLF BENZ and freistil ROLF BENZ brands have received the Blue Angel certificate, which is granted by the Federal Ministry for the Environment, the German Environment Agency (UBA), the Environmental Label Jury and RAL GmbH. The prestigious ecolabel certifies that all the sofas, armchairs and chairs are low in emissions. Even the eco-friendly production process for the upholstery materials used (e.g. foams and mats) and cover materials* (leather and fabrics) is certified. The criteria for bearing the Blue Angel ecolabel for ‘low-emission upholstered furniture’ covers not only the environmentally compatible manufacture of the materials used, but also the option to replace individual wear parts and the usability, packaging, recycling and disposal of the seating furniture. You can thus rest assured that Rolf Benz attaches a great deal of importance to healthy living and responsible use of resources.
* This excludes covers which have been equipped with additional stain protection or a fire-retardant finish -
The upholstery – What makes a freistil sofa so comfortable?
Exceptional comfort is the result of the right blend of the form, material and structure of the upholstery. It needs to be soft and yet provide support. It needs to allow the body to assume an all-round comfortable posture. But at the same time, it should also be flexible enough so that virtually anyone can find their favourite position. Finding the right solution takes skill. And we’re proud to be able to say that our team at the ROLF BENZ company has managed to do just that like almost no other.

Covers – Why does freistil ROLF BENZ offer such a large selection of different covers?
We take pride in our diverse collection of fabrics and leathers because they offer you the opportunity to tailor your sofa to your needs and desires in terms of colour, feel and wear properties. We’re more than happy to help you choose between fabric and leather and advise you on which type of material is suitable for which padding. We can then also show you the advantages and disadvantages of each material.

Which leather is the right fit for me?
When it comes to leather, characteristics such as naturalness and a soft, warm feel are almost always at odds with practical use requirements. If you plan to use a sofa all the time and easy-care, wear-resistant properties are thus important to you, then you should opt for a fully pigmented leather. But then you shouldn’t be disappointed about the less natural look and feel and the somewhat ‘cold’ handle. In contrast, you need to be aware of the fact that an exceptionally natural-looking, velvety soft leather requires lots of maintenance and, despite all your care, will develop signs of wear (unique patina) over the years. Many are fine with that and view it as an expression of their personality. But if that’s something that would bother you, you should opt for a more pigmented type of leather. Semi-aniline leather is the happy medium between these two extremes, as it radiates a certain naturalness, but is also easy to clean and care for and slower to develop a patina.

What leather care does freistil recommend?
