When you relax on one of our park benches, you're not just taking a break - you're participating in a sustainable cycle that benefits our planet. We've completely reimagined what park furniture should be, moving beyond traditional materials that come with heavy environmental costs.
The majority of our benches are crafted from post-consumer recycled plastics - primarily milk jugs and detergent bottles that would otherwise clog landfills or pollute our oceans. For every standard bench, we divert approximately 5,000 plastic containers from waste streams. This innovative approach not only cleans up our environment but creates durable, weather-resistant seating that lasts decades without the need for chemical treatments or paints.
For our wooden components, we exclusively use timber from Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified sources, ensuring responsible forestry practices. We've also incorporated aluminum frames with high recycled content and developed a revolutionary concrete alternative made from industrial byproducts for some bases.
The environmental math speaks volumes: compared to traditional bench manufacturing, our process reduces water consumption by 70%, cuts greenhouse gas emissions by 60%, and completely eliminates the need for virgin plastic production. We've even designed our benches for circularity - at end-of-life, they can be fully recycled into new benches, creating a closed-loop system that mirrors nature's own cycles.
Our commitment extends beyond materials to manufacturing practices. All our production facilities run on renewable energy, and we've implemented water recycling systems that capture and reuse 90% of process water. The transportation footprint is minimized through strategic facility locations and optimized shipping routes.
What does this mean for your community? You're enjoying beautiful, comfortable seating while supporting cleaner oceans, reduced landfill waste, and lower carbon emissions. Each bench tells a story of environmental responsibility - from the plastic transformed from potential pollution to the wood harvested from responsibly managed forests. It's our promise to future generations: comfort today that doesn't compromise tomorrow.
