Manapan
Shared Purpose.
Creating opportunity through collaboration.
At RM, we believe great craftsmanship can create value far beyond the finished product. It can bring people together, build skills and create meaningful opportunities within communities.
Our partnership with Manapan Furniture is a reflection of this. Manapan is a Yolngu-owned and operated furniture business rooted in Arnhem Land, bringing together contemporary Australian design, traditional knowledge and exceptional craftsmanship to create furniture with a story to tell.
A Partnership Built on Craft.
RM is proud to work alongside Manapan, supporting the production and delivery of bespoke furniture for projects across Australia.
While Manapan’s story and craftsmanship remain firmly connected to Arnhem Land, selected works are also produced and completed through RM’s Dandenong South factory. Here, our trade-qualified joinery team provides additional manufacturing capability, facilities and technical expertise to help bring Manapan designs to life.
It’s a collaborative approach that draws on the strengths of both teams, combining specialist skills, modern manufacturing and a shared commitment to quality.
Creating Opportunity.
Supporting skills, training and meaningful pathways through craft.
Manapan is about much more than furniture. The business is dedicated to creating meaningful training pathways and opportunities for people in Arnhem Land, including through the Manapan Academy.
For RM, being part of that story means sharing our knowledge, facilities and practical expertise to support a model where craftsmanship can create lasting opportunity.
Furniture with a Story to Tell
Today, Manapan produces high-end furniture for private, commercial and public spaces across Australia, with every piece shaped by a connection to people, place and culture.
We’re proud to play a part in supporting Manapan’s work and helping exceptional Australian craftsmanship reach projects around the country.
