The Importance of Sustainable Urban Furniture

Urban environments are constantly in flux, requiring outdoor furniture that not only stands the test of time but also contributes to the overall sustainability of the space.

Our concrete mixes include recycled materials, ensuring minimal carbon footprint, making our seats ideal for sustainable urban projects.

  • Low Maintenance: Unlike wood or metal seating, concrete requires minimal upkeep.

  • Environmental Responsibility: Using recycled content in our concrete mix significantly reduces waste and resource consumption.

Aesthetic and Functional Advantages

The Galet Series not only meets the functional requirements of public seating but also enhances the visual identity of urban spaces. The organic shapes act as focal points in open areas, encouraging community interaction and providing a sense of place. By choosing Galet concrete seating, urban planners and designers invest in creating a welcoming environment that invites people to pause, rest, and enjoy their surroundings.

Concrete seating plays a critical role in achieving broader urban planning goals, such as:

  • Social Interaction: Thoughtfully placed seating encourages socializing and community building.

  • Wayfinding: Strategically positioned seating can guide pedestrian flow and enhance navigation through large public spaces.
