A beautifully designed kitchen is more than its cabinet doors. The details bring a space together – from pantry units and open shelving to internal drawers and custom-sized components - all designed to work seamlessly with an IKEA Metod 🇬🇧⁠ or Sektion 🇺🇸 kitchen.

Summer puts your kitchen to work... ☀️

Cold drinks, salad bowls, BBQ prep, endless glasses of water - and plenty of trips in and out of the garden.

Good kitchen design makes it all feel effortless. Our Plykea fronts, panels and worktops transform the clever IKEA framework into a kitchen that works hard and looks good doing it.

📍 We’re Hiring: Workshop & Logistics Supervisor (4-5 Days)

We’re looking for a thoroughly organised, proactive and approachable person to join our workshop team at Here East in East London as our new Workshop & Logistics Supervisor.

This role is the central hub of our workshop. You’ll be the key link connecting our finished designs to our customers' front doors - keeping production flowing smoothly, leading our friendly workshop team, and ensuring every order leaves the door looking top-notch.

📝 What you’ll be doing

> Keeping the Floor Flowing: Translating weekly schedules into clear daily priorities for our tight-knit workshop team so orders move smoothly from CNC cutting through to finishing.

> Quality Assurance: Inspecting finished doors, drawers, and worktops before they’re packed - making sure finishes and dimensions match our uncompromising quality standards.

> Packing & Logistics: Overseeing robust and concise order packing and booking daily couriers to get customer orders delivered safely and on time.

> Stock & Material Tracking: Keeping an eye on our core stock, supplier lead times and workshop consumables to ensure smooth order journeys.

> Team & Customer Bridge: Acting as the go-to person for our Quote Team for schedule updates and product-specific customer queries while keeping our schedule updated with capacity data.

💡 What we’re looking for

> Candidates must be organised, communicative, and quality-focused with a keen eye for detail.

> You should be tech-savvy with good computer literacy, and have a solid understanding of woodworking, joinery, or small-batch manufacturing operations.

> You should be a natural problem solver who leads by enabling others—someone who takes genuine pride in high-quality design, loves keeping things tidy and running like clockwork, and thrives in a supportive team environment.

Hej / Bonjour / Hallo! Plykea is shipping to Europe again...
🇮🇪 🇳🇱 🇸🇪 🇪🇸 🇩🇪 🇫🇷 🇧🇪

Brexit made things complicated for a while, but we're once again sending our handcrafted plywood fronts and worktops to select EU countries.

Each piece is made to order at our London workshop, with over 240 materials and finishes to choose from — all designed to transform standard IKEA cabinets into something genuinely special.

If you're in Ireland, the Netherlands, Sweden, Spain, Germany, France, or Belgium and have been waiting on this one — we're glad to be back! 👋

'We love working with Plykea as there is lots of flexibility in the colours available, meaning there was plenty of choice when we chose the final finish for the space.⁠

The combination of the standard IKEA units with the bespoke Ürtil units means the design can work for any space while also being affordable. For this project, it meant the clients were able to get a very bespoke kitchen for a budget that worked for them.'⁠

What do you do with that awkward gap above a fridge freezer? ⁠

An Ürtil cabinet is a simple way to turn unused space into something purposeful — while giving the kitchen a cleaner, custom built feel. ⁠

Made from the same premium-grade plywood as our fronts, every Ürtil cabinet is made to order and sized to your exact dimensions. ⁠

Now also available in the US, as well as the UK! 🇺🇸🇬🇧⁠
