The Dortmund Aplerback Shopping Mall is ready to renovate its interior spaces with a development project featuring the Garda collection, a line of benches designed to enhance the environment and offer comfort to visitors. Choosing the Garda collection is an excellent solution in terms of aesthetics, functionality, and durability—key elements for the contract sector.

The Garda Collection: Elegance and Versatility

The Garda collection was chosen for its versatile design, allowing for various configurations that adapt seamlessly to the shopping center’s interior layout. Garda benches are available in three versions:

• With backrest: Provides ergonomic support and extra comfort, ideal for areas where visitors linger for extended periods.
• Without backrest: A modern and minimalist option, perfect for spaces that require visually lighter solutions.
• With integrated planter: Ideal for adding greenery to indoor spaces, creating a welcoming and relaxing atmosphere.

This flexibility allows for the customization of every corner of the shopping center, creating harmonious and functional resting areas for visitors.

Materials and Durability for Intensive Use

The durability of Garda benches comes from their aluminum structure, a material renowned for its lightweight properties and strength. The matte anodized aluminum finish not only adds a modern and refined look but also ensures excellent protection against wear and tear, maintaining the benches’ appearance over time, even in high-traffic areas.

The seat can be crafted from two high-quality materials:

• Teak: A premium wood, known for its natural resistance to weather elements and its warm color.
• Resysta: A water-repellent composite material that is highly durable and 100% recyclable, offering a sustainable choice without compromising quality.

Sustainability and Design for a Welcoming Environment in your Shopping Mall

In addition to durability and elegance, the Garda collection meets the growing demand for sustainable solutions in the contract sector. The Resysta wood used for the benches’ slats is an innovative and recyclable material that replicates the beauty of natural wood while minimizing environmental impact.

The interior development project for the Dortmund Shopping Center, featuring the Garda collection, aims to enhance visitors’ comfort and well-being. The different configurations make it possible to create relaxation and socialization zones, perfect for those seeking a break during their shopping experience.
