Grup Fábregas has installed EcoCity benches and bins along a paved path in a natural setting near a watercourse in Laviana, Asturias. This route, frequently used by residents and visitors for walking and enjoying surroundings, now features several rest and waste collection points that enhance comfort along the route while helping to keep the environment clean and well maintained.

The Ecocity benches are made entirely from recycled plastic, a material known for its strength and its ability to withstand outdoor conditions without deteriorating. They incorporate UV protection to prevent damage from the sun and exposure and, as they do not rust or degrade easily, they require no maintenance.

The project is complemented by the installation of EcoCity bins, made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE), ensuring excellent resistance to weather conditions and long-term durability. Their design includes a stainless-steel ring to hold the bag, making waste management easier for municipal services.

With a brown finish that replicates the appearance of wood, the benches and bins have been distributed along the path to achieve seamless integration with the natural surroundings.

The use of recycled materials reinforces the City Council’s commitment to sustainable, durable urban furniture solutions, adapted to the everyday use of public spaces.

The Laviana City Council has recently carried out improvements in several children's play areas across the municipality, with a clear objective: to invest in sustainable urban furniture solutions that reinforce the importance of moving towards more environmentally responsible models.

To reflect the project's commitment, the products selected have been the Maverick bench and the Ibiza bin from the ECO OCEAN collection. 

These two products are made from thermoplastic derived from recovered marine plastic waste. One of the key advantages of this material is its high durability under intensive use, typical of public spaces with constant activity and high footfall. It also offers excellent resistance to environmental conditions such as humidity, rain, and strong UV exposure.

To complete the installation, all metal components are made from stainless steel. As this material does no trust or degrade easily, it provides maintenance-free solutions, a key benefit highly valued by municipal teams responsible for the upkeep of urban furniture.

The installation of this set of furniture enhances the functionality and comfort of the municipality’s children’s play areas, while also conveying a clear message of commitment to sustainability. It is a strong example of how urban furniture can help create more responsible, durable, and user-ready public spaces.
