That's an excellent and very important question! Thank you for asking. The short answer is a resounding yes. Sustainability isn't just a buzzword for us; it's a core principle woven into the design and sourcing of every bench we create. We believe public furniture should enrich communities without depleting our planet.
So, where does the material come from? We primarily use two responsibly sourced streams. First, many of our modern benches are crafted from high-density recycled plastic lumber. This material gives a second life to millions of post-consumer plastic containers—like milk jugs and detergent bottles—diverting them from landfills and oceans. The result is a incredibly durable, low-maintenance bench that withstands harsh weather for decades.
For our classic wooden benches, we never source from virgin rainforests or endangered ecosystems. We exclusively use timber from suppliers certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC). This guarantees our wood comes from responsibly managed forests where trees are replanted, biodiversity is protected, and workers' rights are upheld.
Our commitment extends beyond materials. We design for longevity to combat disposable culture, use minimal and recyclable packaging, and optimize manufacturing to reduce waste and carbon footprint. Choosing our benches means investing in durable community assets that actively support a circular economy and healthier urban green spaces for everyone to enjoy.
