COR is still run by the same family that founded it; established in 1954 by Helmut Lübke and the Prince of Bentheim Tecklenburg (who left the company in the 1980s).

The COR headquarters and production facility is based in Rheda-Wiedenbrück (North-West Germany), where they have been building furniture that reflects the passion of the people who make it for around seven decades. Since its inception, COR has collaborated with forward-thinking and innovative designers, producing unique pieces that withstand the test of time thanks to their attention to detail and the manufacturing process.
