About the STAS picture hanging systems brand

STAS was founded by the brothers Rien and André Stas in 1995, who saw an opportunity where others saw inconvenience. Rien, a skilled handyman, was once tasked with mounting a series of paintings in a home. He quickly realized the available hanging solutions were outdated, damaging, and lacking flexibility. That moment sparked an idea — why not revolutionize the way we hang art?

With André’s entrepreneurial insight and Rien’s hands-on craftsmanship, they sketched the blueprint for a new kind of hanging system — one that combined precision engineering, aesthetic elegance, and practical ease. Starting in a humble workshop in the Netherlands, the STAS brand grew rapidly, soon becoming a symbol of innovation and quality in over 50 countries.

Today, STAS is not just a brand — it’s a global standard in professional hanging solutions, trusted by museums, galleries, businesses, and homeowners alike.
