Simple & Fast
Simple
No tools, no individual parts. A few simple steps and your setup is ready.
Best of all: It fits in the trunk!
Fast
Assembled and disassembled in seconds. No stress with setup times. No stress with teardown times.
Robust & Durable
Robust.
Our poplar plywood is lightweight and dimensionally stable. The construction withstands even the roughest touring conditions. The folding design independently protects the striking outer surfaces.
Durable
All parts are interchangeable, allowing for easy repairs in the worst-case scenario.
Vibe & Authenticity
Vibe
Purely technical function is replaced by form and emotion, and it's even more stable to boot – a vibe your set deserves.
Authenticity
Your setup doesn't just sound like a piano, it looks like one, too. The overall impression finally makes sense, and your stage presence comes across as authentic, professional, and individual.
Eco-friendly & Local
Environmentally friendly
Our poplar wood comes from certified, controlled European poplar plantations.
Our water-based lacquers are solvent-free, meaning they do not burden the environment or the health of our employees.
Our design ensures that the individual elements are connected without the use of glue or similar substances. As a result, a dupiano is completely dismantlable, easy to repair, and recyclable.
Regional
Not only does the material take the shortest possible transport route, but production is also located entirely in Germany. Split between two locations, design, cutting, assembly, and shipping are all handled as regionally as possible.
Handicraft
Your dupiano will be assembled by hand with attention to detail and shipped to you.
Prototype in action
Markus builds his first prototype.
Since then, it has been rigorously tested and improved for over a year.
Global Proof of Concept
Francisca Valenzuela
at the U. de Chile Grand Symphonic Hall.
She took a first-generation dupiano with her on her tour of North and South America and Europe.
Paul Kings contacted us on Instagram:
"Hello! I'm Franciscans stage manager and i love your design :)!"
Markus - developed the dupiano
“I’m Markus – pianist, producer, and founder of dupiano.
After years on stage with a keyboard and a rickety X-stand, I finally wanted to feel like I was sitting at a real piano again.
So I built it – using sustainable materials, sturdy, beautiful, and foldable in seconds.
I’d love to hear what you think about it! Sign up for the newsletter. You’ll get some insights, early releases, and sometimes I’ll ask for your opinion on new product ideas or similar things. At most 1–2 times a month :)"
By the way, I’m building the whole thing at my grandparents’ former farm. This is where the production is based, along with everything else needed to build a small business. I’ll also be sharing more about it on YouTube and Instagram soon – feel free to check it out! In the long term, I’d love to preserve the farm with this venture and develop it into a place for creative makers.
