Challenge the framed uncertainty,
Make more unique collections
Amanda and her sister, Vivian established DOUXTEEL in 2016. The two sisters inherited their father’s 30year sheet metal processing factory in 2014 after their father’s sudden death. With the stereotype of being female leaders, Amanda and Vivian broke the frame and successfully transformed the traditional sheet metal factory into an international licensed and highest military graded metal processing manufacturer. They changed the fate of the factory and continued the love from their father. Majored in Art, Amanda wondered how to give life and warmth to the cold metal. Her wild and vivid imagination, refined thoughts, attention to details, bravery of trying new things, and the eager to breakthrough in her personality make her charming and also become the DNA of DOUXTEEL.
Leftover management is not recycling,
Resale is based on the beginning of “redesign”
“Tradition” and “innovation” vertically integrated metal manufacturing, art creation, and aesthetic practice. Besides technology and aesthetics, the core of the management principle is “green alchemy” which turns leftover metal into products and fulfill the responsibility of environmental protection. Putting social responsibilities first, DOUXTEEL transforms circular economy and metal into life aesthetics. DOUXTEEL’s original intention has never been changed since its establishment—Maintain close connection and bond with “people”. In the process of design and mass production, DOUXTEEL uses its profession and patented technology as foundation and adopts recommendations from users and professionals. DOUXTEEL sincerely believes that a real “good design” is created when the functions and use experiences reach the most satisfying level. Even though such process is very complicated, it helps us see each product from the perspective of “people”.
into Your Days
The mission of DOUXTEEL has evolved from “CHANGE MORE” to “DO MORE” in 2021. DOUXTEEL maintains its goal to make metal gracefully step into everyday life, hoping to create more stories between people and objects. DOUXTEEL continues to expand international markets to spread the aesthetics and imaginations of DOUXTEEL to the whole world to become an influential international boutique. DOUXTEEL continues to use the patented technology provided by Metal Industries Research and Development Center.
