FAQ
Can the Eiermann table top be used on both sides?
The melamine coated and linoleum table tops can have light scratches that mean one shouldn't use the underside. The solid oak table tops can however be used on both sides.
From which material is the Eiermann table top made?
With the exception of the solid wood version all table tops are made from coated plywood. The melamine-coated table tops have a 2 mm oak edge (formerly beech) or a white edge. The linoleum coated table tops have a 2 mm oak edge and on the lower side a white melamine coating.
Egon Eiermann’s table frames can be combined with a variety of table tops. The Stuttgart-based furniture manufacturer Richard Lampert offers a selection of table tops in various materials, colours and sizes for this purpose. The different formats and finishes allow for a wide range of combinations and, depending on the variant, give the Eiermann table its very own character.

The Eiermann Table – Egon Eiermann and the History of the Design
The architect and designer Egon Eiermann designed the Eiermann table frame in 1953 with diagonally positioned cross-braces. In 1965, the frame was redesigned at the Karlsruhe University of Technology, where Eiermann worked as a lecturer. In this redesign, the stabilising cross-braces were no longer positioned at an angle but vertically, which significantly improved its practical utility. Richard Lampert offers this redesigned version under the name ‘Eiermann 2 Table Frame”. Eiermann had not designed a specific table top for his frame. According to him, there were no limits to creativity when choosing a tabletop – his students even used door panels.

Table tops to match the Eiermann table frame
Richard Lampert’s table tops are specially tailored to the Eiermann table frames and designed as part of the overall system. As well as a select range of materials and colours, they offer various edge finishes. Depending on the material, thickness and size, a table top may, for example, sag over time. Richard Lampert table tops, on the other hand, are specifically designed to meet the requirements of the respective Eiermann table frames.

Which table top size is suitable for which Eiermann frame?
The various sizes of table frames and table tops give rise to numerous possible combinations – some more practical than others. It is essential to ensure that the table top extends sufficiently beyond the support points of the table frame. The following overview is intended to help you select a suitable option for your needs. The combinations that we particularly recommend are highlighted in green. In addition to the rectangular table tops listed, round table tops are also popular, for example in combination with the Eiermann 3 table trestle. If you are unsure about your choice, please contact our customer service, who will be happy to assist you.
Table tops for Eiermann frames: a comparison of materials – three materials for different requirements
A Richard Lampert table top often stays with its owner for many years. But how do the different materials change over time, and which surface is best suited to everyday use?
Linoleum impresses with its pleasantly warm, slightly springy feel and a matt, natural look. Thanks to the material's elasticity, minor scratches can sometimes fade away.
Melamine-coated tops, on the other hand, are particularly easy to care for and resistant to everyday wear and tear. The table edges, made from oak veneer, showcase the wood’s natural grain and, over time, develop a unique colouring as a result of exposure to light and everyday use.
The solid oak table tops, with their natural grain and warm colouring, lend the Eiermann table a particularly high-quality, homely feel.
Whether the focus is on low-maintenance functionality, a pleasant feel or the natural appearance of the material ultimately depends on your personal requirements for a workstation or dining table.

Table tops by Richard Lampert: from dining tables to workspaces
Whether as a dining table, conference table or desk in a home office – table tops by Richard Lampert are incredibly versatile. Larger sizes offer ample space for shared meals or meetings. When several table tops are placed side by side, they create spacious work surfaces that are ideal for offices, meeting rooms or communal workspaces, for example. Combined with the matching Eiermann table frames, they allow you to design a variety of work and living areas.

Table tops for Eiermann tables in small rooms
Richard Lampert’s table tops can also be used flexibly in small rooms. Compact table tops are ideal as a desk in an alcove, in the bedroom or as a small workspace in the living room. Light-coloured table tops blend discreetly into the décor, whilst dark finishes create a stronger visual contrast. Compact sizes are particularly well-suited to small rooms, offering the opportunity to set up a fully-fledged workspace even in a limited space.

Table height extension - Flexibility in height and angles
Additional extensions are available for custom height adjustments on Eiermann table frames, allowing the standard table height of 66 cm to be adjusted in 5 increments of 35 mm each, up to a total height of 85 cm. This ensures the table complies with the table height requirements stipulated by the EG. The ability to adjust each individual extension rod allows the tabletop to be used in a horizontal position as a desk or at an angle as a drawing table.

Mounting kit - Fine adjustment and securing
The mounting kit for table tops is used to secure the table top and to fine-tune the table height; it allows the table top to be tilted and also enables very precise compensation for even the smallest differences of up to 20 mm. This means that even the slightest unevenness in the table can be corrected.
Mounting kit
Cable tray - Tidiness under the table
Cables can be neatly tucked away under Eiermann tables using the matching cable trays. Simply hooked into the frame, they hold the cables in place, keeping your desk and the floor tidy. Depending on the frame, the channels are available in various lengths and Colours, and optionally with a privacy screen.

Leveling kit - Uneven surfaces elegantly levelled
Uneven floors, particularly in older flats, make it especially difficult to set up the table. The levelling kit provides a solution for uneven surfaces, featuring adjustable feet that are screwed onto the ends of the frame. By turning the feet, a height of 20 to 40 mm can be set, allowing precise, different heights to be adjusted at each end.

Industrial rollers - Make your table mobile
Industrial castors transform the Eiermann table frame into a flexible piece of furniture that can be moved from A to B as required. Each set comprises two lockable castors, providing the table with the necessary stability. The castors add an extra 70 mm to the table’s height.
