About
We've got a direct mandate to represent a potential partner for some of the NEB-relevant topics.
Our SME is an Italian manufacturer specialising in sustainable and circular street furniture, such as benches, bus shelters, bike racks, stations, sun/rain shelters, litter bins, and plant troughs. They focus on designing elements that boost functionality, comfort, inclusiveness, and aesthetics in outdoor spaces. In a previous Horizon Europe-funded project, we cooperated to develop a 100% recyclable bench made of a new circular composite material. We can effectively provide evidence on the uses of street furniture, demonstrating how co-creation in its design can inform procurement processes. This approach aims to enhance the quality of experience, safety, security, sustainability, resilience to climate change, and inclusiveness within neighbourhoods through street furniture.
