At PMI, we are captivated by European design. Every day, we challenge ourselves to curate specialized products that translate to the American cabinet and manufacturing process. We meticulously craft, engineer, and design practical solutions that enhance the functionality of hardware and accessories. For more than 30 years, we have worked tirelessly to find solutions for the furniture, kitchen & bath, closet, hospitality and office industries.
Our customers are at the core of what we do and how we do it. While Kernersville, North Carolina is home, our team works with partners around the world. They are connectors, eliminating business and cultural barriers to deliver the right products to the customers we serve. We are an energetic, driven, resourceful, and diverse group of people who are fascinated by the inner workings of furniture hardware and accessories. We use humor and compassion to keep us balanced.
On June 1, 2018, Karl became the new owner and president of PMI. Under his leadership, PMI remains committed to providing exceptional service and solutions for our customers. Karl became immersed in the furniture business when he studied cabinet making in his home country of Austria. After becoming a successful sales manager at one of the largest custom woodworking companies, Karl decided to pursue a new challenge. Although anxious to succeed in a larger market, Karl arrived in the U.S. speaking only a few English words. Never one to shy away from an obstacle, in less than two years, Karl became fluent in the language while bringing a host of new customers to the business. Since then, Karl has worked tirelessly to expand PMI’s product range and partnerships. Karl is an exercise enthusiast and professional globetrotter. He exemplifies what it means to work and play hard. To him, the U.S. is truly a land of unlimited possibilities.
