When you choose one of our park benches, you're selecting more than just beautiful outdoor furniture – you're investing in a healthier planet. We approach bench production with an unwavering commitment to environmental stewardship, beginning with our material selection. Over 85% of our benches incorporate post-consumer recycled plastics, giving new life to approximately 1,200 plastic bottles per bench that would otherwise linger in landfills or oceans. For our wooden components, we exclusively source timber from FSC-certified forests where responsible harvesting practices ensure ecosystem preservation and continuous replanting.
Our manufacturing process reflects this same ecological awareness. We've implemented closed-loop water systems that reduce consumption by 70% compared to conventional methods, while our solar-powered facilities offset nearly 90% of our energy requirements. The powder-coat finishes we use are VOC-free, eliminating harmful airborne pollutants while providing exceptional durability against weathering. This thoughtful approach extends to our packaging, where we utilize 100% recycled and recyclable materials, completing a comprehensive sustainability cycle.
Beyond production, we design our benches for exceptional longevity – with an average lifespan exceeding 25 years – significantly reducing replacement frequency and long-term resource consumption. Each bench comes with a 15-year warranty, reflecting our confidence in their enduring quality. Through these multifaceted efforts, we've diverted over 18 million plastic containers from landfills while continuously refining our processes to further minimize our ecological footprint. The result is outdoor seating that not only enhances community spaces but actively contributes to environmental restoration with every installation.
