The business operates as part of the Coventry Group, which also runs Konnect NZ (a fastening systems brand) and a parallel Australian operation at artia.com.au.

The product range is comprehensive, designed to cover most of what a furniture or fit-out professional needs from a single supplier. Drawer slides are a core category, with ball-bearing, soft-close, undermount, push-to-open, roller, and full-extension options across branded ranges including Topaz, Zapphyre, and Grass. Drawer systems from FGV (including the Uniset range) and Grass Agantis are also stocked.

Assembly fittings span particle board screws, euro screws, confirmat screws, machine screws, connecting brackets, corner connectors, lag screws, biscuits, dowels, wall plugs, insert sets, brads, and staples in multiple series for pneumatic tooling. Cabinet and furniture mechanisms cover lid and flap stays, overhead doors, and pocket door hardware. The castors, glides, and legs range includes furniture and industrial castors, adjustable glides, T-nuts, furniture legs, plinth legs, table legs, and swivel assemblies.

Consumables extend into adhesives (MS polymer, solvent-based, water-based, and wood adhesives), silicones, polyurethane sealants, fire-rated sealants, construction fillers, masking tape, cloth tape, double-sided tape, and the Fastmount panel-mounting system in standard, low-profile, very low-profile, Stratlock, and textile ranges. Safety and PPE stock covers eye protection, hearing protection, respiratory gear, gloves, footwear, first aid kits, and load restraints including ratchet straps.

Trade credit and cash accounts are both available to apply for online. Existing customers and individual buyers can also register. The website includes a Quick Order function for fast repeat purchasing, as well as wish lists and product comparison tools. Branch locations are listed on the site.

Artia NZ: Trade Hardware Supplier for Cabinet Makers, Joiners and Furniture Professionals

Artia NZ is a specialist trade supplier of furniture hardware, cabinet fittings, fasteners, and related consumables, serving the New Zealand construction and furniture manufacturing industries. With a comprehensive online store and physical branch locations around the country, Artia is a go-to source for joiners, cabinet makers, builders, and fit-out contractors who need reliable access to a deep range of trade-grade products.

The business is part of the Coventry Group, which also operates Konnect NZ — a sister brand focused on fastening systems — and an Australian counterpart at artia.com.au. The group's scale means Artia can support both small trades businesses and larger manufacturers with consistent supply.

What Artia Supplies

The product range at Artia is extensive, covering most of the hardware categories a furniture or cabinet professional would need. Drawer slides are a core focus, with options spanning ball-bearing, soft-close, undermount, push-to-open, roller, and full-extension systems. Branded ranges include Topaz soft-close and push-to-open runners, the Zapphyre side- and bottom-mount systems, and Grass Agantis drawer kits and components from FGV.

Assembly fittings cover the essentials — particle board screws, euro screws, confirmat screws, machine screws, connecting brackets, corner connectors, dowels, biscuits, wall plugs, and insert sets — alongside brads, staples, and collated fasteners for pneumatic tooling.

Cabinet and furniture mechanisms include lid and flap stays, overhead door systems, and pocket door hardware. The castors, glides, and legs category covers furniture and industrial castors, adjustable glides, nail-on glides, furniture legs, plinth legs, table legs, and swivel assemblies.

The consumables range is equally broad: construction adhesives (including MS polymer, solvent-based, and water-based), silicones, sealants, polyurethane foam fillers, fire-rated sealants, industrial adhesives, masking tapes, cloth tape, double-sided tape, and the Fastmount panel-mounting system in multiple profiles. Safety equipment — glasses, ear protection, gloves, respiratory gear, first aid, footwear, and load restraints — rounds out the offering.
