30 YEARS ANNIVERSARY

October 30, 2025

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.

CE CERTIFIED EUROPEAN QUALITY

October 29, 2025

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:

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

PREMIUM OAK DOORS

October 1, 2025

Insensation is pleased to announce phenomenal pricing on all our oak frameless doors. While other companies charge hundreds of dollars for oak finishes, Insensation’s 20 real oak finishes are available for $135 more per door over our lacquered white doors. In white or wood finishes, Insensation’s pre-assembled doors save time and money in installation costs. Other companies charge $600 plus for real wood veneers and their selection is not half as large as ours.

When manufacturing wood veneer doors, there are several aspects which differentiate Insensation doors from others on the market.

1. Insensation only uses real wood veneers sourced from Italy. Insensation does not manufacture laminate doors. Laminate is plastic, and belongs on cheap furniture, not high-end doors. There is a huge quality difference between real wood and plastic.

2. Most companies manufacturing wood doors create their edges out of edge bands. Edge bands are laminated onto the edge of the door using heat or adhesive tape to apply. Edge banding is an inexpensive way to create door edges. They often de-laminate, or peel off after some time.

3. Insensation wood doors have solid wood edges, made of the same wood as the door surface. These are durable and of significantly higher quality than edge bands. Solid wood adds a premium natural wood finish to doors, improving their look and making it an excellent choice for luxurious interiors.

4. Insensation does not use pine wood like the cheap doors sold at Home Depot and Wayfair. Insensation uses birch or oak for framing – high quality doors require high-quality wood.

MIAMI EUROPEAN LUXURY

September 23, 2025

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.
