A-bench

Bench

Design Scaffidi; Antonio

The elegant ‘A-bench’ connects with the Nordic tradition of understated refinement and cool restraint. Although the bench may appear to be low-key, the methods underpinning its construction can be considered high design. The bench’'s cast aluminium base combines the armrests and runners in a form that supports two mahogany slats between them. The bench is suitable for interiors as well as outdoor spaces.

Materials and surface treatments

The side supports are crafted in cast, sandblasted 100% recycled aluminium. The seat is made in oak, or alternatively, mahogany.

Recycled sand cast aluminium

Aluminium recycled from scrap, hand cast in sand moulds. The energy consumption when producing recycled aluminium is about 5% of that used when producing virgin aluminium.

Mahogany - FSC-certified

FSC-marked mahogany is a wood with good durability in the outdoor environment. In addition, it retains its color tone better than, for example, oak and teak. Mahogany lives and moves, sometimes more than teak.

Oak

Oak is a heavy, hard and medium tough wood. Moderately dimensionally stable in case of moisture changes. Oak wood blackens if it is exposed to moisture or wetness for a long time. However, it does not affect the other properties of the wood. Thanks to its hardness and toughness, the oak wood is suitable for furniture and other use in exposed environments.

Wood oil

Wood oil provides good protection against the stresses of the outdoor climate and at the same time highlights the wood's natural appearance and properties.

Maintenance

Oiled oak

Oiled oak should be oiled twice a year for best protection. Good maintenance can never completely prevent stains from occurring, but oak that is not maintained will turn blacker and turn gray faster, but it still has a very long life. When re-oiling products, a finely boiled oil that penetrates the wood should be chosen over a film-forming oil.

Oiled mahogany

Oiled mahogany should be oiled two times a year.

Sand cast aluminium

Maintenance on aluminium is not normally needed, but make sure to wash and keep the material clean. Untreated aluminium develops a matte surface over time.
