What challenges does BEGA Furniture solve?
At BEGA, we have an unwavering commitment to quality above all. BEGA Furniture is made with high-quality materials that harmonize with the built environment while ensuring design continuity, functionality, durability, and sustainability.
• Design Continuity:
We aim to bring built environments to life by harmonizing different materials via family-driven designs. Whether using standard BEGA products or our collections, designers will have access to a range of complimentary products. To maintain consistency with BEGA lighting solutions, all finished metal components for BEGA Furniture come in standard BEGA finishes.
• Functionality:
BEGA Furniture offers a wide range of solutions for functional outdoor spaces. Initial offerings include tables, benches, chairs, waste management, planters, bike racks, stakes, and partitions.
• Durability:
BEGA Furniture is made with a combination of different materials. Premium metal components are finished in BEGA Unidure?(R), providing exceptional protection from the elements and the highest level of fade resistance. BEGA wood components are unaffected by temperature, humidity, precipitation, or insect predators. In addition to wood, metal is combined with High Pressure Laminate, which can withstand extreme temperatures, is scratch and impact resistant, is very easy to maintain, and holds up year-round in outdoor settings. Lastly, our RENDEZVOUS Collection by Aubrilam includes High-Performance Concrete components, which have high density, dimensional stability, and resistance to chemical and environmental elements.
• Sustainability:
At BEGA, we are committed to environmental responsibility and minimizing our impact on our planet. We carefully select materials for our products, considering their recyclability and longevity to maximize their lifespan and promote a cradle-to-cradle lifecycle.
