Together with Tomado, Pastoe and Pilastro, Cado was the leader on the market for wall mounted furniture. During the fifties many European furniture companies followed this success and started producing a wide range of comparable wall mounted systems, also using prefab materials for the production, but only the Cado system offered a very large number additional parts that could be choose from at the time; shelves and boxes in many sizes, different wood finishes etc. In the 1960ies, Cadovius took over the Danish furniture company France & Søn and renamed it into CADO. Cadovius worked with a number of famous designers such as Arne Vodder, Grete Jalk and Finn Juhl.
