Einrichtungs

Einrichtungs- is a productive prefix in German that does not stand alone as a word, but forms terms related to interior furnishing and space planning. The base noun Einrichtung means arrangement, establishment, or the act of furnishing; the added -s- is a linking element in compounds.

Usage: Common in catalogs, trade discourse, architecture and interior design. It helps to distinguish items or services aimed at interior spaces from general furniture.
