MAINTENANCE
Stainless steel and timber
SECOND life
Or the art of making things last
Our products have a significantly longer lifespan than the renewal cycle of the public spaces in which they are installed. Our Second Life service gives them every opportunity to last even longer through maintenance, repair and even complete repainting.For more sustainable street furniture, what better way than to make it last longer? Replacing a timber slat or a damaged component, changing the polyethylene liner of a litter bin, replacing the cylinder of a retractable bollard, applying a fungicidal wood stain or carrying out a paint touch-up, re-passivating a stainless-steel component… almost anything is possible. Even a complete repaint..
MAINTENANCE
The materials selected by Aréa offer excellent durability. To maintain an appearance close to new, some materials benefit from a minimum level of care, particularly stainless steel and timber.
RePAir
Combating planned obsolescence also means designing products that can be repaired. At Aréa, almost every component can be dismantled and replaced thanks to our extensive range of spare parts. Our touch-up aerosol kits also make it easy to repair minor paint damage such as scratches and chips.
REFURBISH
For more extensive renovation work, our liquid paint kits enable you to repaint your street furniture completely.
THE UNEXPECTED
Public spaces are also shaped by unexpected opportunities. Through The Unexpected, Aréa occasionally offers street furniture previously displayed at trade shows or pieces with minor cosmetic imperfections, giving them a new purpose and a second life.
