Hand on heart: in every adult there is always a bit of a child that loves to play. Whether it's a board game or a computer game, whether on a table football or a pool table: playing is fun. This is also why Thomas Bankhamer said yes when his children asked for their own table football table. However, due to the fact that none of the available models appealed to him, the Austrian took matters into his own hands – after all, he is an expert in high-quality furniture and interior design for the brand „Bankhamer Design“ The table football table he designed was so well received by the children that he immediately turned it into a business idea: for the past year, Bankhamer has been producing customised made-to-measure table football tables to great acclaim.

Custom work

Each table of the brand Bankhamer is a unique piece, tailor-made according to the customer's ideas. From the figurines to the handles all the way to the surface design, the buyer can choose from countless variants. The tables are then made in Bankhamer's partner company, the Möbelwerkstätte Enghuber. "Individual furniture for individual people" is the motto of the carpentry workshop, now led in the third generation by master carpenters Dominik Enghuber and Michael Birglechner. They also remain loyal to this principle when it comes to table football tables. The body in particular offers room for creative design: the product range extends from the puristic variant with white lacquered MDF boards – Enghuber relies on the efficient Aduro MDF-4in1 coating from ADLER for this – to the natural look, where the knotted oak is smoothed, brushed and lacquered with ADLER Legnopur. Also popular with companies are "branded" table football tables, where the company logo is incorporated into the body through inlaying or CNC milling. "There is a good reason why innovative companies such as Google provide table football tables for their employees: playing together clears your mind, promoting creativity and team spirit", explains Bankhamer.

Luxury quality

The latest highlight in the range of products of Bankhamer and Enghuber is the "Limited Edition Series": 33 "Wunder-Wuzler" in luxury quality, which impress first and foremost thanks to their extraordinary surface design. Here, noble wood meets the rough look of formwork concrete. The side walls made of walnut veneer as well as the counter made of solid walnut are treated withADLER Legno-Öl for a natural look and feel. The concrete also comes from the ADLER tin: Enghuber uses the real concrete lacquer Bluefin Pure-Concrete, offered in six colour variants, from the dark "Black Panther" to the "White Wolf". A final layer of ADLER Aqua-Top Antiscratch with a dull matt gloss level G5 provides reliable protection so the table can withstand even rough playing. After all, these table football tables are not only supposed to look good, but also be good fun – and such fun is guaranteed with this unique toy for older and younger table football enthusiasts.
