Our commitment to sustainability goes beyond resource optimisation; it underscores our dedication to delivering value-driven designs that align with environmental stewardship and economic viability.
Quality check and hand-finished
After machining, the parts undergo a meticulous post-processing phase to ensure they meet our strict quality standards before assembly. This phase involves a combination of manual inspection, organisation, and finishing techniques to refine the parts and eliminate imperfections.
Our skilled technicians carefully inspect the cut parts to identify any irregularities or deviations from the specifications outlined in the product drawings. This manual inspection process allows us to detect even the slightest imperfections that may have occurred during machining.
Once inspected, the parts are organised systematically to streamline the subsequent assembly process. This ensures an efficient workflow and prevents any confusion or mix-ups, keeping the production schedule on track. Skilled craftsmen meticulously smooth out rough edges, remove burrs, and refine surfaces to achieve the desired aesthetic and functional quality. This manual refinement process not only enhances the visual appeal of the parts but also ensures that they meet the exacting standards expected from us.
Finally, detailed quality checks are conducted to verify the parts' dimensional accuracy, structural integrity, and overall quality.
The parts are deemed ready for assembly only after successfully passing these rigorous quality checks. This comprehensive approach to quality assurance underscores our commitment to delivering products of the highest calibre, known for precision, reliability, and impeccable craftsmanship.
Assembly
Hand assembled by carpenters
Attention to detail
Quality checkpoints at every stage
The assembly stage is where the product truly comes to life, as our highly trained in-house carpenters bring together the various 2D components to create the 3D forms that make up our products. With a keen eye for detail and a commitment to excellence, our carpenters approach each assembly task with precision and care, ensuring that every step is executed effectively and efficiently while upholding our uncompromising quality standards.
During the assembly process, attention is paid to every aspect of construction, from the alignment of individual parts to the joining techniques used. Our carpenters leverage their expertise and craftsmanship to achieve seamless integration and structural integrity.
Quality remains a top priority throughout the assembly process. Once the frame or structure is complete, it undergoes rigorous scrutiny and testing. This comprehensive testing regimen helps identify any potential weaknesses or deficiencies, allowing our team to address them proactively before the product progresses to the next stage of manufacture.
In essence, the assembly stage is where craftsmanship meets precision and quality meets excellence. Through the collective efforts of our skilled carpenters and stringent quality control measures, we strive to deliver products that exceed our expectations and yours, setting new benchmarks for quality and craftsmanship in the industry.
The soft bit (foaming)
Multi-layered foam
Water based spray glue
Comfortable and welcoming
In our commitment to delivering products that excel in both comfort and safety, we employ a multi-layered foam application process to enhance the aesthetics and functionality of our furniture. Each foam piece is secured with a water-based spray glue.
Water-based spray glue isn't an industry standard. We are proud to include it in our manufacturing process because of its health benefits. Being low in VOC content, it is much more environmentally friendly, with fewer regulations and concerns, which makes it perfect for commercial products.
Let's talk about foam! We use several different foams, from high-density to soft and lightweight, to help create our overall look and feel.
The high-density foam provides cushioning and support, ensuring a plush and inviting feel that embodies the signature comfort our brand is renowned for. The thinner foam creates a soft touch texture that embodies the overall comfort JDD is known for. Finally, slim, dense foam creates clean, crisp edges and corners.
Investing in quality materials and innovative construction techniques ensures our products are of the highest quality.
Sewing
Premium cut upholstery machine
Precision cuts with minimal waste
Skilled sewing team
In our commitment to delivering top-quality upholstered furniture, we leverage state-of-the-art technology and expert craftsmanship in our sewing process. Our premium cut Upholstery machine utilises CNC programming, is equipped with precision cutting technology, and efficiently cuts the fabric with unparalleled accuracy, saving valuable manual labour time and minimising material waste.
This advanced machine not only enhances productivity but also ensures consistency and precision in every cut, resulting in perfectly sized fabric pieces, pre-notched, that are ready for sewing. By automating the cutting process, we optimise efficiency without compromising on the quality of the final product.
Despite the efficiency of our cutting technology, we recognise the importance of human oversight in maintaining the highest standards of craftsmanship. Each fabric piece is inspected by hand to ensure there are no imperfections or errors that may have been missed during the automated cutting process.
Our skilled sewers then take over, employing their expertise and attention to detail to hand-stitch the fabric pieces together, creating the fabric shell of the furniture piece. This manual stitching process not only ensures precision and durability but also allows for customisation and intricate detailing, catering to each piece's unique specifications and design requirements.
This perfect blend of artistry and machine allows us to balance efficiency and quality, delivering upholstered furniture that embodies luxury, comfort, and durability. Our commitment to excellence permeates every step of the sewing process, resulting in products that exceed expectations and stand the test of time.

Quality tools and materials
Fine attention to detail
With the fabric shell complete, our skilled upholsterers now undertake the critical task of tailoring it onto the foamed timber frame. They execute this step with precision and care using various hand tools, ensuring the fabric is perfectly positioned and securely fastened while achieving a flawless, smooth finish.
Investing in the best tools and techniques allows our upholsterers to work swiftly and efficiently, minimising production time. The high-powered staples penetrate the fabric and securely anchor it to the timber frame, providing a strong foundation for the upholstered furniture.
Throughout the stapling process, our upholsterers pay close attention to detail, adjusting the tension of the fabric to ensure a snug and wrinkle-free fit. Achieving the perfect tension is crucial not only for aesthetic purposes but also for the product's longevity. Properly secured fabric prevents sagging, shifting, and premature wear, ensuring the furniture maintains its pristine appearance and structural integrity over time.
Components & Electrics
