Insensation is pleased to announce the start of our 30th year in business beginning in January.

In 30 years, we expanded from our original location in Basel, Switzerland to serve clients in 14 countries in Europe and across the USA with 7 unique showrooms for contractors and architects.

For 30 years, we have developed minimalist products and introduced world-class architects to a wide range of frameless technologies which have subtly altered the course of minimalist interior design in everything from tiny woodland homes to massive luxury towers.

For 30 years, we have enjoyed every minute working with exceptional architects, contractors, designers and our own group of engineers and product gurus who have pushed the boundaries of wood, metal and mechanics in door design.

Throughout 2026, we will be releasing new products, new locations and announcing major projects that we have been preparing.

A huge thank you to our families, friends, clients, collaborators, architects, contractors, suppliers, engineers, logistic providers and all who have made our original slogan CREATE A SENSATION a reality in thousands of homes.

______________

Insensation is a Swiss brand creating the next generation of minimalist, frameless doors. Headquartered in North America in New York and in Europe in Basel, Switzerland, Insensation delivers worldwide using the best Swiss transport company.

As a premier high-end door manufacturer, we get to see a lot of luxury across the USA. The tough weather conditions in Southern Florida require architects to build European style homes – not made of wood but rather solid, concrete foundations and walls. This is standard in Europe in all buildings, which is why they are standing since hundreds of years.

Miami is a unique place to experience luxury living. This recent project has 35 oak FS2 2″ XXL frameless doors from Insensation. Our pre-assembled doors make installation easy for any contractor.

For those contractors who are still shy about using frameless doors, despite ours being pre-assembled, Insensation has installation teams in Florida and New York. Ask us if you need help.

Many companies in the USA market their products as ‘European’ or even ‘Italian’ design. This is a pure marketing gimmick and has nothing to do with the design, quality or engineering of a product. An excellent product will have either a CE or an UL rating. Both mean the product meets safety and quality standards. Insensation products are certified CE, Conformity European.

A product which has a CE Marking, means is was manufactured in Europe using European quality standards:

1. The product complies with all relevant product directives and regulations in the European Union
2. The product conforms to all of the applicable health, safety, and environmental laws
3. The product It is legally compliant enough to sell everywhere in the European Union

Countries That Require CE Marking

CE Marking is required for relevant products sold in all member countries of the European Union (EU) as well as the non-EU EEA countries. Though not part of the EU or EEA, Switzerland and Turkey have adopted certain regulations and directives. Current CE Marking countries are:

Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Cyprus, Denmark, Estonia. Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Malta, Norway, The Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey

Current and former Soviet countries like Belarus, Ukraine and Russia are not part of the European Union and do not participate in their CE quality standards.

In summary, a product claiming to have some European or country specific design, is only relevant if it has a certified CE label.

In addition to CE compliance, Insensation products adhere to high international standards and norms.
