Himolla looks to restructure through protective insolvency process
German furniture manufacturer Himolla Polstermöbel GmbH has entered ‘protective shield proceedings’, a court-supervised restructuring process designed to allow the company to reorganise while continuing operations. The application was filed with the court in Landshut on 26 June 2026.

The restructuring follows challenging market conditions, including weak consumer demand and falling sales. Tillmann Peeters of Falkensteg has been appointed restructuring manager, working alongside legal advisers and a provisional administrator to develop a restructuring plan aimed at stabilising the business and securing its long-term future.

Despite the proceedings, Himolla has confirmed that production at its international sites in Poland, Romania, Slovakia and Hungary will continue unaffected, and all customer orders will be fulfilled as planned, although the potential impact on jobs has yet to be determined.
