The story behind the stand factory
I'm Paul de Zanger, a long-time collector of old-school skateboards and art decks from the OG skateboarders. After years of searching and frustration at finding nothing stylish or affordable, I started building my own. I started with very simple wooden stands, which quickly evolved into beautiful plexiglass stands. The entire process is done at my home workbench, from design to bending and milling the plexiglass.
Handmade and unique
After many positive reactions and inquiries about the stands, I decided to produce them on a small scale and offer them through social media and this page. These are handmade stands, designed from scratch and produced in very small quantities—no mass production, and guaranteed to attract attention. Every detail, from bending to milling the plexiglass, is done by hand in my workshop in Amsterdam.
What makes us different
We focus on presentation displays for collectors. We offer stands for everyday use, but not for displaying a skateboard as a work of art in your living room. Our stands give every deck the look of a work of art. The Stand Factory transforms your skateboard into a showpiece, a true eye-catcher that draws attention and emphasizes the artistic value of your collection.
"The Stand Factory really brought my collection to life. The stands are not only functional, but also a work of art in themselves!"
