More than just furniture: 3C Gruppe presents ideas for the point of sale at MÖBELMEILE 2026

Diversity in the furniture trade is growing, and with it the opportunities to take a holistic approach to interior design. At the MÖBELMEILE trade fair from 20 to 24 September 2026, 3C Gruppe will be demonstrating in its newly designed showroom in Rheda-Wiedenbrück how individual product ranges can be combined to create harmonious interior design concepts. The focus will be on new models, the further development of the three brands – 3C Candy, 3C Carina and 3C Candy Sleep – as well as solutions that open up new opportunities for retailers in terms of advice, planning and marketing.

In doing so, 3C Gruppe is increasingly looking beyond the individual piece of furniture. Product ranges are being better coordinated, design options are being specifically expanded, and concepts are being developed that link different living areas together.

“For 3C Gruppe, the key to successful retail experiences lies in a coordinated conceptual approach: colours, materials, finishes and shapes interplay across different product groups. The aim is to provide clarity, simplify planning processes, create living environments and thereby give retailers fresh impetus for customer advice and marketing,” says Carl-Christoph Held, Managing Director of 3C Gruppe.
 

Mix & Match combines product ranges into an overall concept

Mix & Match is a prime example of this approach. Launched last year, this interior design concept is being systematically expanded for MÖBELMEILE 2026 and now combines upholstered furniture, armchairs, coffee tables, chairs, benches, dining tables and storage units into a unified design language.

Together with selected partners such as Rietberger Möbelwerke and Niehoff, coordinated furnishing options are being created across product groups and manufacturers. Mix & Match does not prescribe a fixed look: tone-on-tone schemes, deliberate contrasts or targeted accents allow for different combinations and leave room for personal style. For retailers, this creates a concept that unifies product ranges and opens up new possibilities for presentation, customer advice and marketing.

3C Candy brings fresh inspiration to modern living spaces

3C Candy is further developing its collection for MÖBELMEILE 2026 with new models and design options. Trend-conscious shapes, contemporary colour schemes and an extraordinary variety of high-quality upholstery create furniture that allows different interior styles to be showcased individually.

The focus is increasingly moving beyond classic upholstered furniture. Together with dining furniture and complementary ranges, versatile interior design solutions are created that bring personal style to different areas of the home. ‘Mix & Match’ expands on this concept and creates additional opportunities to combine individual pieces of furniture into a personalised living space.
 

3C Carina unveils a new look

At MÖBELMEILE 2026, 3C Carina will be showcasing a fundamentally redesigned exhibition area whilst consistently developing its collection and marketing strategy.

For the first time, Mix & Match is also being introduced at 3C Carina, extending the concept to the conventional upholstered furniture segment. This creates new opportunities to combine existing ranges and present them as cohesive interior design ideas at the point of sale. New marketing solutions for high-street retailers, as well as digital tools for advice and sales, complement the trade fair presentation.
 

3C Candy Sleep brings a personal style to the bedroom

3C Candy Sleep makes the bed the focal point of the bedroom. Contemporary designs, a wide range of styling options and an exceptional selection of high-quality covers result in beds that define the space and bring a personal style to the bedroom.

At MÖBELMEILE 2026, this approach will be continued with new models and design ideas. In doing so, 3C Candy Sleep fits seamlessly into 3C Gruppe’s overarching philosophy of considering living spaces not in isolation, but as part of a personal interior design concept.

“Our commitment remains unchanged: high practicality for everyday use combined with a distinctive design ethos. We are constantly developing our ranges and creating solutions that offer new possibilities for both retailers and customers. At MÖBELMEILE, we want to showcase the diversity of our brands and concepts today,” says Markus Kemming, Managing Director of 3C Gruppe.

3C Gruppe will be presenting its new products and concepts from 20 to 24 September 2026 at its showroom in Rheda-Wiedenbrück.
