Thank you for your excellent question about the lifecycle assessment and environmental impact of our park benches. This is a topic we are deeply passionate about, as we believe public furniture should contribute positively to our communities and planet.
From the very beginning of their lifecycle, our benches are designed with sustainability as a core principle. We primarily source materials from certified sustainable timber forests or use high-quality recycled plastics, diverting waste from landfills. Our manufacturing process is optimized for energy efficiency, often utilizing renewable power, and we aim for zero-waste production by repurposing any offcuts.
The true strength of our benches lies in their durability and longevity. Constructed to withstand decades of use and harsh weather, they require minimal maintenance. This extended service life is the single greatest factor in reducing their overall environmental footprint, as the impact of production is amortized over many years.
At the end of their long life, our benches are designed for disassembly and recyclability. Components can be separated, with metals recycled and wood either repurposed or composted. We are committed to a circular economy model.
Our comprehensive lifecycle assessments consistently show a significantly lower carbon footprint compared to conventional benches. We achieve this through responsible sourcing, efficient production, exceptional durability, and a clear end-of-life plan. Choosing our benches means investing in lasting comfort for your community while making a responsible choice for the environment.
