Samick makes a wide range of pianos. Under the brand names, Samick, Pramberger, Wm. Knabe & Co., Kohler & Campbell, and the Gebrüder Schulze.
In 2004, Samick gained controlling interest in competitor Young Chang, but an anti-trust rulings in the U.S. and Korea ended the merger a year later. From 2003 to 2009 Samick was associated with German C. Bechstein Pianofortefabrik.
