The popular furniture brand has redesigned the construction of its PAX cabinets, saving significant time.
Who hasn’t dreamed of being able to quickly assemble their Ikea furniture? The Swedish giant now promises its customers assembly in record time of its popular PAX cabinets, among other things “Foldable cabinet frame to assemble directly on the wall”explain the company.
These are the first Ikea furniture equipped with this new system. With only 23 “service units” instead of 105 previously, the reduction in construction time quickly appeared. “With the old system, it took an hour to install this cabinet. Today it’s only 20 minutes.”ensure the brand. The whole system has been redone. Now there are three completely different versions, with both sides of the former cabinet attached to the back. Saves significant time compared to before. The back has to be covered with nails and hammers.
All plastic
No more classic screws and metal parts. Today, almost everything is made of plastic. The entire operation requires 14 steps, compared to 22 previously. Some parts of the PAX cabinets are in the old format. The arrangement of doors, drawers and even shelves are often done in a traditional way. It is also the dismantling of the cabinet which should be simple. Smaller fragile parts and the absence of nails, which are difficult to remove without damaging everything, will limit the risk of product damage, which is often criticized by the development industry.
Can this new assembly process be extended to other furniture sold by the furniture giant, which achieved a turnover of 3.8 billion euros in France in 2023? Get in touch, Ikea starts. “To date, we have no idea if this program will expand to other models”.
